posted on: November 14, 2022

The whole process of leaving your own country and your house to settle abroad as a young student sounds intimidating. As a freshman not only do you lack experience and knowledge but you are also vulnerable to a lot of other ill practices that people follow for their own benefit. This is why it is very important to have a preset idea about international education and your life as an international student before settling abroad. These are the things that you must know as a freshman in an international University-

  • Make sure that all of your documents are authentic and right. It is possible that there will be frequent checking of your documents so it is advisable to keep them ready all the time.
  • Finance management is one skill that you must master before you decide to leave on your own. This is the facet of life that most international students fail in. Money management is really important especially as an international student because you're bound to spend more as there is nobody to look after you.
  • Make sure that you get everything insured, especially when you're flying, including your luggage.
  • If you're moving to a country where English is not the first language then it is advised that you learn the basics of that language. Even if your program is taught in English, then also it is advised for you to at least learn some famous words of the language so as to be able to communicate with the local people.
