After studying for exams late at night, working long hours writing papers, and doing more than your share of a group project, you deserve a summer break!
Students in the U.S. relish their summers as a time to relax and not fret about all of their school responsibilities. If you’re spending your summer in the U.S., you won’t be alone in wanting to make the most of these precious months. Below are some ideas to help you plan your summer in The United States.
Relax – Many students use the summer months to replenish their energy levels by doing things that are enjoyable and stress-relieving. Some students use this opportunity to go to the beach, stay at home reading or watching movies, going to concerts and music festivals, or hiking trails and sightseeing around town. There’s nothing wrong with having some lazy summer days, so grab a cold drink and a comfy chair.
Explore – Students don’t have a lot of free time during their academic semesters, so they use the summer months to explore their city and country. You won’t always have summer breaks, so now is the perfect time to do some traveling. Go on a road trip with friends, visit places you haven’t been to yet in your school’s city, or visit another city and explore a different town. The most popular places students like to travel to are beaches (like the ones in Florida and California), landmarks (like the Grand Canyon and the Washington Monument), and big cities (like New York City and Chicago). Exploring the world can help you explore who you are in the midst of it.
Volunteer – A great way to feel connected to your school’s city is to serve the community in the form of volunteering. Students often use their new flexible schedules to give back during the summer. There are most likely places around your school that would love your time and help. Websites like VolunteerMatch.org can direct you to a volunteer spot that works for your interests and skills.
Intern – If you have an idea of what field you would like to go into when you graduate, interning is a great opportunity to develop your skills and have something for your resume. Students often use their summers to intern because it gives them more time to focus on their internship and give their best work ethic to the company or organization they are working for. Most schools will provide credits for internships, so make sure you register with your school. You can also talk to your career services office about where to find internships in your field. Internships can provide great connections, so make sure you’re giving your internship your best efforts and keeping in touch with them once the summer is over.
Learn – If you would prefer to stay busy and continue your education over the summer, that’s a possibility too. Taking a summer class can help speed up the process if you’re behind or want to graduate earlier. It can also help you focus more on any subject in particular that may interest you. There are many options for summer classes. Some offer more than the average amount of credits, some are online, and some are abroad. If you fear you didn’t have time to take that modern dance class, the summer months may be the perfect time to do it.
Congratulations on making it through the academic year! Treat yourself to these next few months of freedom because they are well deserved. Eat healthy, sleep more, get exercise, and spend this time doing something that makes you happy. After all, the fall semester is right around the corner.

emlyon business school, one of Europe’s top business schools, and Zhejiang University’s School of Management, one of the oldest institutions of higher education in China, have recently announced a new collaboration with Pace University located at the heart of New York City!
As of September 2016, Global Entrepreneurship Program students will start off the academic year at emlyon business school (Lyon, France), travel to Zhejiang University (Hangzhou, China) and finally go to New York City to attend courses at Pace University’s Lubin School of Business.
Accredited by AACSB International – The Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business and named one of the top 100 Entrepreneurial Colleges and Universities in the United States by Entrepreneur magazine for three consecutive years, Pace University and the Lubin School of Business are at the forefront of innovation and global entrepreneurship. With a series of courses in entrepreneurship and business as well as an Entrepreneurship Lab, a Small Business Development Center, a Center for Student Enterprise, and the Helene & Grant Wilson Center for Social Entrepreneurship as sources of inspiration, Lubin is an ideal environment for students to build on the entrepreneurial skills acquired in France and China and continue to shape their entrepreneurial future.
While students will focus on identifying opportunities and searching for ideas in France and analyze the entrepreneurial process as it ventures outside of the western world in China, in the US students will examine how one must shape the future of a company when market entry comes into play or when an entrepreneur is set on creating new funding strategies for his enterprise.
This new collaboration between three entrepreneurial leaders is an exciting opportunity for next year’s intake as they will experience first-hand what entrepreneurship is on three different continents with many business projects, academic courses on topics like social entrepreneurship, new venture creation or family business, and network with savvy entrepreneurs!

The new project of the Theater of Cruelty and a free jazz orchestra, Proud Cloud, wants to welcome you aboard the existential journey.
Going back home for summer break or after graduation is exciting! You get to see your family and friends again, eat your favorite local meals and remember where it is that you came from.
While you’re getting back into the swing of things back home, don’t forget to keep in touch with your new friends in the United States.
The bonds and relationships that you made as an international student were likely a huge part of your experience and can continue to be, presuming you put in the effort. Not to worry, we’ve got some great tips for helping you maintain those friendships long after you’ve boarded a plane to your home country.
Rule #1: Don’t Wait Too Long – This is listed first for a very simple reason: it’s most important. The longer that you wait to communicate after returning home, the harder it will be to rekindle those bonds. Because of this, send a quick text when you get back to your home country, to make it known that you’re safe and already missing your new friends. Even better, send along a picture of your home, local hangout spot, or just something beautiful in your country. Odds are your friend in the US hasn’t been to your home town (or even your home country), so adding personal touches to messages, like fun pictures is a great way to stay in touch and spark a new conversation.
Rule #2: Pick a TV Show to Watch or a Book to Read – Sometimes when you keep in touch with your friends, the back and forth messages can morph into life updates and impersonal newsletters, rather than common interests and spontaneous conversations. To help break this mold, pick a television show to watch or a book to read together. Set a day every week where you’ll watch an episode or read a chapter and talk with each other about what happened. With the internet, it’s easy to schedule movies or TV shows to watch through streaming applications like Hulu or Netflix.
Rule #3: Schedule a Time to Call – To avoid calling your friends at 3 a.m., set a time and day that works best for both of you. Make this a consistent thing, whether it’s daily, weekly, or monthly. In addition to simply catching up with your friends, speaking English with someone fluent in the language will continue to help grow your communication skills. We all know that life can be busy, but finding time for old friends while walking to lunch or right before bed can help keep your bonds strong.
Rule #4: Send Care Packages – Every once in a while, surprise your friend by sending them a care package. You can pack a box with inside jokes, things you think they’d enjoy from your town, letters you wrote them throughout the month, etc. Without spending a great deal of money, this gesture lets your friend know that you’re still thinking about them and doesn’t require you to schedule a call that fits both of your schedules.
Rule #5: Remember the Important Days – Spend extra care communicating to your friends on important days such as birthdays, graduations, engagements, or housewarmings, and days that are important specifically to your friendship. Knowing that you support them from the other side of the globe can help your friends feel like they are still a part of your inner circle regardless of the distance.
Rule #6: Make a Blog – If you’re trying to keep in touch with a lot of friends, especially ones that are in the same circle, you can make a blog that keeps everyone informed on your life. Though this shouldn’t replace individual contact, it can be a great way for a friend group to feel in-the-loop and create an environment where no one feels left out. If you’d like to take it a step further, share your login information with several of your friends in the States so that you can all share your stories together.
Rule #7: Take Advantage of Technology – There are so many ways to keep in touch these days, so take advantage! You can video chat with your friends, send pictures in an instant, and message in real time through hundreds of generally free applications. If your friendship is important, you will both be able to find a form of technology that works best for everyone.
Once you return to your home country it can be easy to settle back into your old life with your family and friends, but don’t forget about everyone you met while studying abroad. One of the best things about being an international student is making bonds with people of all different cultures, so don’t forget to keep in touch as your life progresses. Do you have more great ideas for keeping in touch with friends after returning home? Leave us a comment with how you communicate.

The United States has always been a melting pot of cultures, so it makes sense that the food would follow suit! Over the years, recipes from around the world have been heavily improvised with different ingredients and processes to create a hodgepodge of American culinary cuisine.
Not to sell the United States short, there are some tasty treats that can be considered ‘authentic American’ – we do take credit for key lime pie, tater tots and Twinkies, for example – but overall, the majority of American food originated outside of the US, and we’ve simply made it our own.
With so many delicious options to choose from as an international student, we’ve done some of the legwork for you by creating a list of five foods you simply must try while in the United States, staring with a personal favorite, the all-American burger.
We hope that this list makes you hungry, but don’t feel bad if you have to ease into American food. It can be a big adjustment. Though these are some must-tries, eating the majority of these foods can be heavy on your stomach, so it can be best to try one or two before diving through the entire list. There are many, many dining and food options in the US, so when in doubt, ask a classmate! They are likely to have insight on the best restaurants in town and may even have suggestions for specific dishes you need to try.
Now that you are more familiar with some of Americans favorite dishes, do you know tipping etiquette?

The transition from high school to college is an exciting part of any student’s life. Still, there are several aspects of that transition that require a degree of acclimation, like the new and often confusing world of academic reading and writing. Unlike some of the reading that you have done in high school, academic writing has a specific format, tone, and body of language that can, at times, seem overly complicated and make the subject harder to understand.
For international students, developing strong academic reading and writing skills can be doubly challenging. Not only is the subject not written in their first language, it can also seem like an entirely new language unto itself. If you are planning to attend an English-speaking college or university, there are several ways that you can begin to develop your reading and writing skills before starting the fall semester:
1. Begin exploring your field via abstracts and keywords
One reason that students—both international and otherwise—struggle with scholarly writing is because of its language and style. Each academic subject has theories, technical terms, and formats that can make comprehending the material challenging. Rather than simply opening a textbook and reading, consider beginning with the abstracts and keywords that are published with scholarly articles.
An abstract is a short description, roughly a paragraph in length, that generally appears at the front of a work. Abstracts provide the reader with a sense of the article’s content, as well as what the author hoped to achieve by writing it. You may not learn much from the abstract, but it will introduce you to the article’s key terms and theories in a simple format. Likewise, reviewing the list of keywords that accompany the article can be a great way to start building your academic vocabulary. More often than not, these terms will be related to the article and the broader field of study. When a word is unfamiliar to you, look it up, and record its definition.
2. Seek out translations
English is in part a challenging language because it makes heavy use of slang, regional dialect, and other linguistic quirks. Fortunately, much of scholarly writing avoids such language, and it instead works with facts and evidence. Nevertheless, when reading academic writing, the key to comprehension lies in recognizing the context. The context in which the subject is discussed can frequently change the meaning of a particular word or phrase, which can make it difficult for non-native speakers to follow the logic of the work.
If possible, try to locate a translation of the text in your first language. For popular novels and seminal articles, this may be relatively simple, and it can help you identify the context and work backwards to fully understand the English text. Keep in mind that you should not rely entirely on these translations, but instead just for puzzling sentences and paragraphs.
If you choose to use translations, ensure they are proper translations, rather than text translated by a computer. Though translation software has improved in recent years, it is still incapable of accurately recognizing context and nuance, which can inadvertently make your reading even more challenging that it was before.
3. Practice writing fact, not opinion
Most scholarly writing is based on careful research. In light of this information, it is important that you collect evidence and review facts before you try to write about a subject. This may sound obvious, but having a strong understanding of your topic before you begin to write means that you will be less likely to insert unfounded opinions.
To practice this type of writing, think of a subject that you are very familiar with, and choose one aspect of it that interests you most. Then, practice writing several paragraphs that deal only with facts. As you write, be sure to clearly note where your information came from. Remember, you are not writing a novel—you are synthesizing information for a particular audience who will want to know where you got your ideas, and why you think they need to know them.

Occupational Therapy student at the University of South Australia
I love living in Adelaide and it is my third year here but one of the struggles I have is saving money. As international students living away from home, we try to save as much as we can for several different reasons: you don’t want to spend too much of your parents’ money, you want to do more shopping, you’re saving up for your future, and so forth.
So, here are 4 helpful ways to save money!
I have lived alone for a year now and I learned that cooking your own food can save a lot of money. Eating out can cost nearly $15-20 per meal, cheapest being around $7-8. Imagine how much more can you cook if you have that much money? Fresh vegetables and fruits, meat and other ingredients can be bought cheaply at the market. By using the money you spent eating out on groceries, you can cook enough for several meals.
Many argue that they are too busy to cook. I agree. I’ve been there. And I found this to
be quite helpful: cooking in bulk. By cooking in bulk, I cook a dish or two in a large quantity and save it in the fridge or freezer for other days. By doing this, you don’t have to cook every day! Of course, cooking at home takes time, energy and effort, but it saves money, it’s healthier and you are actually physically active while cooking.
Are you aware that with your student card you can get discounts at certain stores and restaurants, transportation fares and even movie tickets? Restaurants and food stalls in most food courts will have a student discount! Just show them your student card and you will receive 10% discount or free drink! There is also a concession price for movie tickets too! Just visit any cinema and show your student card. Depending on cinemas, Mondays or Tuesdays are cheap movie days.
And international students in Adelaide are offered the same public transport discounts as local students which can save you hundreds of dollars every year.
If you are into student discounts and vouchers, take a look at these two sites as well, Student Edge and PokitPal.
Not only that, if you look behind Coles’ receipts, you can find a few discounts too! You can also find this via Shop A Docket.
What I mean by this is choosing the people that you surround yourself with. I have many friends who love to go out, eat in fancy restaurants and shop whenever they feel like it.
On the other hand, I have a group of friends who are careful with how they spend. While I love both groups so much, I have to be very cautious when I am around the first group. If you have any friend that loves to spend money and eat out, I advise you to not be ashamed and let them know that you are saving money. This way, they are aware and will not push you to go out so often. Of course, do go out and enjoy yourself once in a while! 
Another piece of advice I would like to give is to save money with a friend. Let someone close to you, who can keep you accountable, know that you are trying to save money. This person will surely help you!
Lastly, there are many activities that you can do for free or a cheaper price! The first activity I did when I arrived in Adelaide was to visit the South Australian Museum. Some exhibits do have an entry fee, but they are worth it! Their displays and collections are updated quite frequently too. Other places like the Migration Museum, Art Gallery, National Wine Centre and Tandanya Cultural Institute are all free to visit.
Adelaide is small, but there are many events and locations you can visit. The Night Market, the Market Shed, Botanic Gardens, Central Market, Adelaide Hills, Adelaide Zoo and North Terrace precincts are a few places that you can visit. You can walk around and have a look without actually having to spend money. Also, Adelaide has many parks which you can gather your friends for a barbeque, to play sports or even to just chill out.
Additionally, at the University of South Australia, there are many events such as Brekky Bar, where you can get breakfast for $1-2.
Brekky Bar occurs every Tuesdays and Thursdays at City East and City West, and Tuesdays and Wednesdays at Magill and Mawson Lakes from 8:30am – 11am. They offer toast and spread, cereals, cheese toasties, tea and coffee and juices so that you can have your breakfast before your early lectures!
On top of that, there are free movies showing at City West with free popcorn, free fairy floss and free drinks!! The schedule for 2016 is still unavailable, but look out for it because it’s going to be great! Here are some of the movies that were shown last year.
So these are the four tips that I found useful in saving money. Of course, saving money is a good thing, but don’t forget to reward yourself and spend a few bucks once in a while! You need to explore and enjoy living here!
After all, Adelaide is an affordable city for your Australian education.

As international students you have so many great opportunities to get involved in your community! Volunteering is a fun way for you to gain new skills, meet people, and expose yourself to different environments that you normally would not be used to. Here are reasons why you should volunteer this summer, regardless if you’ve chosen to stay in the US or return home:
# 1 Meet New Like-Minded People
Volunteer work is a good way to make friends. You already have something in common- you love volunteering! The people you meet there have similar interest and they want to make a difference in their community, just like you. If you are nervous about going alone, bring a friend!
You will also make important connections at your volunteer center. The relationships you make, like with your supervisor, can write you letters of recommendations for colleges or scholarship awards and can potentially help you find a job. Make sure to keep in touch with them and try to volunteer often, even after summer is over.
# 2 Impress Colleges and Scholarship Providers
Unlike having a job or internship that are paid or earned college credit, your volunteer work will be you providing a free public service. Your volunteer work and involvement in your community will be recognized by colleges and scholarship providers. Your service shows them you are a well-rounded student, community-minded, and have a passion for helping others.
Colleges and scholarship providers appreciate students that take interest in volunteer work. You can use your volunteer experience to help write college or scholarship essays, or help you qualify for certain community service scholarships. Your commitment to volunteering will set you apart from other applicants!
#3 Take on a New Worldview
Your exposure to new people and different environments will help shape your life and the way you view the world. When you volunteer you get to work on really exciting projects that can be totally out of your comfort zone! Volunteer work can including helping to build houses, cleanup community parks, work in a food pantry or even become a student mentor. The service that you provided to the community will give you valuable life experience.
Nearly every community offers numerous volunteer opportunities for you can choose from. Remember that your campus is an hot spot for activities like volunteering, and may be the best place to start looking for volunteer opportunities! You could choose volunteer work related to your future career goals or anything you find exciting. Whatever you choose it will be a valuable experience that will set you apart and leaving you feeling great knowing you’ve contributed to your community.
