International students’ common mistakes in the US

Well, we all kind of know what we should do as international students in the US, but do you know what we should not do? Let’s see:

Do not take everything when you are immigrating; it is hard to take them on the plane and it is even harder to find a place for each of them especially if you are living in a dormitory.
Do not ignore the importance of learning English.
Do not spend all your time with those who are from your home country; try to find an American friend or at least an international student who is not from your country.
Do not ignore the importance of finding a scholarship; try to find one ASAP.
Do not wait until you’ve graduated to find a job; use CPT and OPT.
Do not imagine everything in your life will stay the same; everything is going to change, how would your life turn out to be? That’s up to you.
If you haven’t searched about America and if you are not willing to become familiar with its people and their culture, you are going to face serious problems.
Not willing to leave your safety zone is just another mistake; if you like to succeed, then you have to get up and move.
Do not have unrealistic dreams; because if they do not come true then your world will get darker and darker.
Not Having a budget plan will destroy you.
Not taking part in the university’s groups and events is not smart; these events and groups will help you more than you think.
Not having a goal and a plan is not what you want, believe me.
Not having a good diet is not healthy.
Not having health insurance is probably the worst thing you might do.
