It will be very interesting. Just keep an open mind and be friendly but not too friendly.

Generally, International students have an orientation a few days before school starts where they get to meet other International students, have a tour of the school, receive any information that they might need to know, and they meet a 'buddy' who will help them through the first few weeks. This allows for the student to be more confident on the first day of classes- you've seen the school and you know where your classes are so you can focus more on meeting people than trying to decipher where third period Calculus is!
If you are nervous or don't know if your school has such an orientation, feel free to contact them!! They are there to help you acclimate and have a good time!

If the school is used to internationals, there will be a kid assigned to that student to walk them around and help them find the right classes.
Otherwise, I expect it is rather daunting. But worth it in the end; the internationals that we have hosted really enjoyed their time here. the parent family should get involved with school if things do not work well.

It is really up to you, You have taken this wonderful step and now you know you are in for a great experience. Keep a smile on your face and ask questions all schools are different, but like any thing you do in life be positive. I have had 7 exchange students and they had a great time. One is coming to see me in 3 weeks. You are about to experience the best year. Where are you going?

It probably depends on if you're outgoing or not, and if you speak english clearly. There's likely going to be other students from your country there, if not in your class, then at the school at least.

Well first of all, there are lot of blonde girls. (wouldn't notice guys) Professor seems more casual,friendly and cool than what we used to. He talks to everybody formally. (lot of blondes) Some people walk out the lecture without asking permission. and most people pay attention,... some dosn't at all.

It's interesting, to watch kids watch kids, everybody has an opinion, and they sit back and watch,Liston & learn the new kid just to find out tht they seem to be alright, and get brave enough to go up & talk to them,, and before hey know they're, at each others weddings...It's like when you get something new, everyone wants to check it out, & give opinions..

I have no clue. I guess you would have to get used to hearing English and or Spanish depending on what state and where your going to school at.
