I am absolutely convinced that such events give us a wonderful opportunity to learn more about American system of education, they help to get a profound knowledge of it. It.s really good that students who are studying in the USA at this moment can share their experience with us and provide us with some valuable piece of advice on-line. Indeed, I was happy to ask some topical questions and get the answers immediately. Unfortunately we couldn.t see the speaker, nevertheless her speech was sincere and lively.

I do hope that you will be able to organize these on-line chats and conferences regularly in future.

Yours faithfully,

Дорогие друзья!

Московский центр по вопросам образования в США (EducationUSA) приглашает вас посетить семинар для поступивших в американские учебные заведения. Мероприятие будет проводиться в субботу 23 июня с 10 до 16:30.

В нем будут принимать участие сотрудники нашего центра, а также выпускники, студенты и представители американских университетов. Цель данного мероприятия - помочь сорентироваться вновь прибывшим студентам и сделать процесс адаптации к стране, учебному заведению и новой культуре более простым. На семинаре будут обсуждаться вопросы получения визы и прохождения визового контроля по прибытии, а также основные моменты связанные с учебой: выбором предметов и регистрацией на учебные курсы, культурой общения с преподавателям и студентами, системой оценки знаний, форме проведения занятий и т.п.; а также многие вопросы, связанные с бытовой стороной учебного процесса: медицинская страховка, банковская система, питание, аренда квартиры/комнаты (для тех, кому это нужно) или условия проживания в общежитии. На семинаре также можно будет узнать, где можно купить более дешевые билеты для поездки в США.

Мы поможем вам избежать ошибок, которые допускали студенты в прошлом!


Обязательно подтвердите Ваше участие по телефону 777-6533 или по эл. почте eic@useic.ru, предварительно заполнив форму, которую можно найти на сайте http://useic.ru/pdo_ann.htm

Хотелось бы также предупредить Вас о том, что ланч будет проходить в стиле "Pot Luck", то есть каждый должен принести какое-то готовое блюдо для себя и остальных посетителей семинара. Например, салат, пирожки, пиццу и т.п. из расчета на нескольких человек.

Участие в семинаре - бесплатно, предварительная регистрация обязательна. Количество мест ограничено.
