The first few days at your U.S. college or university can be a truly
exciting time. There will be many new students on campus like you,
all dealing with feelings of anticipation mixed with a certain
amount of worry regarding how the first few months of study will go.
During those first days, you may find yourself very busy getting
organized and settling in. Your priorities may include letting your
family at home know that you have arrived safely, becoming familiar
with the college campus, meeting new people, deciding on your
academic program, and completing all administrative requirements so
that your registration and enrollment are in order.
New student orientation programs offer a perfect opportunity to
accomplish all of these tasks, to attend campus social events
planned especially for new students, and to help ease the transition
to a new place.
Despite the excitement, it is not at all unusual for students to
feel a certain degree of loneliness, homesickness, or anxiety during
their first year. U.S. universities offer many sources of help and
counsel, but the responsibility for seeking assistance lies with
you, the student. In other words, if you need help, it is up to you
to seek it out among the many resources the educational institution
offers. |
