FOR INTERNATIONAL STUDENTS Culture Shock

Most students require several months to adjust to a new culture. During this time they may feel excited, sad, homesick, depressed or that U.S. culture is not what they expected. This is not unusual. This is called “culture shock.” Stress is common for students who are far from home. Signs of stress include feeling anxious, tired, depressed or angry. Students who feel overwhelmed should talk to an advisor in International Programs or make an appointment to talk with a counselor. The Counseling and Health Services Prevention Education offices are located on the second floor of the Lindbloom Student Center. Here are some suggestions to help students adjust to their new surroundings: • Set realistic goals (don’t try to do too much) • Have patience with yourself • Find out as much as you can about your new culture • Try to have a sense of humor • Practice English daily • Learn to manage your time • Eat healthy food, get enough sleep, exercise and try to relax

Off-campus jobs are available only under certain conditions set by immigration. Practical training is a category that allows international students to work in the U.S. in jobs related to their majors. Practical training is normally taken after graduation for a period of up to one year. It can also be taken before graduation if it is a required part of an academic program or with permission from immigration. International students facing unexpected financial emergencies may be allowed to work part-time under certain circumstances. International student work regulations are complicated, so students should contact an advisor in International Programs for details. International students should not work without written permission from immigration. A Social Security card must be obtained to work in the United States. Currently, Social Security cards are only issued to international students who have verification of employment. This means a student must first have a job offer in order to apply for a card. Come to the International Programs office for the most current information on local Social Security office locations and hours.

FOR INTERNATIONAL STUDENTS Grades

Instructors award grades on a point system ranging from 4.0, superior, to 0.0, fail. A student’s grade point average is calculated each quarter. A cumulative GPA is also calculated, which is a combined total of a student’s grades. At the beginning of each quarter, students receive a syllabus from each class instructor that provides details about class requirements and grading. The syllabus is very important, so students should keep it safe at least until the class has ended. For completed classes, students may access their grades online by going to greenriver.edu, navigating to “Online Services,” “Student Info” and “Unofficial Transcripts.”

Health Care and Insurance

Green River requires all international students to enroll in a health insurance plan. Students may enroll in the Lewer Insurance Plan through Green River or they must provide proof of insurance purchased through another company that meets minimum coverage requirements. Students who do not provide proof of their own insurance will be charged for the Lewer insurance plan. Students who have questions about health insurance or who are looking to find out the minimum coverage requirements should visit the International Programs office. Students who have health problems that need immediate care should go to the emergency room at the nearest hospital or call 911 so an ambulance can rush them to the hospital. Those with minor injuries or minor health problems should not go to the emergency room – they should call their local doctor instead. Come to the International Programs office for the most recent information about local medical providers

Housing

International students requesting housing have three options: Campus Corner Apartments, Homestay or Homeshare. Campus Corner Apartments have four private bedrooms in each unit and are fully furnished. The cost is based on the type of lease selected. Students who would like detailed information about move-in costs and monthly rental charges should visit the International Programs office and ask to meet with the housing staff. Homestays offer experience living with a U.S. family and an opportunity to share customs and culture, participate in household activities and practice English skills. Homeshares allow students to share a home with other students and provide their own meals. Homeshares require a minimum three-month commitment.

Identification Cards

International students can receive a Green River identification card from the bookstore or library. Individual Tax Identification Numbers can be used in place of Social Security Numbers to open bank accounts and apply for major purchases, cell phone accounts and apartment leases. ITIN applications are available in International Programs.

Intensive English Program

The students in the Intensive English as a Second Language program are supported in their learning by a variety of services: Computer access, tutoring, resource materials, writing assistance and other resources. The IESL office staff is available to assist students from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday. Summer hours vary.

FOR INTERNATIONAL STUDENTS Immigration

As a holder of a student visa in the U.S., it is the student’s responsibility to understand and comply with immigration regulations. The most important regulation that applies is that a student must remain “in status.” This means each student must register for at least 12 academic credits or full-time IESL classes each quarter, take only one quarter as a vacation in the U.S. per year and work only when permission is granted by immigration. Being “out of status” can cause international students problems when trying to transfer to another U.S. school. Out of status students might have to leave the United States without finishing their studies, have difficulty renewing their student visas in their home country and be unable to apply for permission to work. Student visa (F-1 and M-1) renewals can only be done outside of the United States. There is no problem if a student’s visa expires while he or she is studying in the U.S. as long as their I-20 is current and they are in status. Students needing to renew their visas should contact the U.S. consulate in their home country to find out the latest visa renewal requirements and timelines.

Mail

The U.S. Postal Service is the main provider of mail service in the United States. The post office is open Monday through Saturday for service. Stamps are available at all times if there is a stamp machine in the post office lobby. Stamps may also be purchased at the bookstore in the Lindbloom Student Center or at most grocery stores. Students should never send cash through the mail for any reason. The post office in Auburn is located at 11 third St. Kent post offices can be found at 10612 SE 240th St. and 216 W Gowe St. There is also a postal drop box near the Administration Building traffic circle.

Registration/Tuition

Registration occurs when a student enrolls in classes at Green River. Continuing academic students will have the option of registering online. Registration time is determined by the number of completed credits. The more credits a student has earned, the earlier his or her registration time. Tuition for international students in academic classes follows the published due dates in the class schedule.

International Programs Staff

The International Programs staff is here to assist international students and to help make their experiences positive and enjoyable. Office hours are from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday. Summer office hours vary. Telephone: (253) 288-3300 Fax: (253) 333-4940

FOR INTERNATIONAL STUDENTS Rules and Regulations

Purchasing and drinking alcohol in the U.S. is illegal before the age of 21. Driving a vehicle under the influence of alcohol is a crime. There can be penalties of thousands of dollars, a 90-day license suspension or 30 days in jail. Smoking in the United States also has restrictions. Many public buildings and restaurants are “smoke free,” meaning that students cannot smoke in any part of the building. Green River is a tobacco-free campus. Class expectations are described in the course syllabus, which instructors usually hand out on the first day of class. It is very important that students read and understand the class syllabus. The syllabus includes information about grades, attendance expectations, and what is required for success in the class. All instructors set their own point scale for awarding grades. It is wise to keep the syllabus and graded tests and papers that the instructor returns, even after completing the class. The information may be useful in the future. International students should talk to their instructors regarding any difficulties they have with the class material, such as homework, lectures, exams and textbooks. Remember that cell phones and other electronic devices need to be turned off in the classroom. Each instructor has individual attendance rules. Those who do not attend class during the first three class meetings may be dropped from the class. In order to learn the required materials to pass exams and receive a passing grade, students must study and attend class regularly. Instructors are eager to help their students. Students should find time to communicate with their instructors if they have any concerns.

Plagiarism is copying the work of another student or copying from a book without identifying the source. It is a serious academic violation, and in some cases, a crime. It may lead to failure of the course and possible dismissal from the class or from the college. Behavior that is disruptive is not allowed. Alcohol or illegal drug consumption is not permitted on any of our campuses.

Safety

The Auburn area is considered safe and secure. However, there are some precautions one may take to avoid dangerous and risky situations: • Don’t visibly carry a large amount of cash or valuables, such as cameras, laptops and jewelry • When going out at night, travel in groups rather than alone • Don’t leave a party without a friend or with a stranger • Don’t drink alcohol with someone you don’t know Don’t drink alcohol if you are under the age of 21 • Tell your host family or friends where you are going and when you expect to return • Never leave personal items unattended anywhere on campus Call 911 for fire, police and ambulance in any emergency where there is a life-threatening situation. From a pay phone, 911 is free. Campus Safety provides 24-hour service on the main campus and a Campus Safety ride program.

FOR INTERNATIONAL STUDENTS Telephone Service

Domestic telephone companies provide local telephone services and long distance companies provide national and international services. Students must arrange their own local and long-distance service, unless they are living in the Campus Corner Apartments, which provides a local phone plan. For local telephone service contact Qwest at (800) 860-1020. Students who share long distance service with roommates should ensure everyone understands how the bill is to be paid.

Driver’s license examining offices

Kent: 25410 74th Ave. (253) 872-2782 Federal Way: 1414 S 324th St., Suite 105, (253) 931-3934 Automobile insurance is required in Washington. Students must carry proof of insurance when they drive. Those who are stopped by the police might receive a ticket and a fine of up to $500 if they cannot prove they have auto insurance.

Advice for driving in the U.S.

• Lock your car and keep valuables out of sight • Observe posted speed limits • Report all accidents to the police; failure to do so is a crime • Always wear a seat belt. It’s a Washington state law and can protect you from serious injury in the unfortunate event of an accident!

Instructions for using public telephones or pay phones can usually be found in the telephone booth. Calling cards come in two types: the first acts like a credit card, and bills are sent each month for all calls made with this card. The other is a pre-paid calling card and may be purchased at the Paper Tree on campus, at stores such as Target, Kmart and Wal-Mart and at local post offices. These cards come in various amounts ($5, $10, $25, and so on). In either case, make sure the rates or cost per minute of the card is understood.

Transportation

King County Metro provides bus service. There is a 24-hour information line for bus fares, scheduled times and routes. The Metro information number is (206) 553-3000 and the King County Trip Planner website is at tripplanner.kingcounty.gov. Students must have a valid driver’s license to drive in the United States. Each state issues its own driver’s license. An international driver’s license is valid for a limited time.

Airport shuttles are listed in the yellow pages of the phone book under “airport transportation.” Be sure to make a reservation in advance. Door-to-door shuttle services include: • Emerald City Airport Shuttle (206) 622-3400 • Shuttle Express (425) 981-7000 • Express U.S. Shuttle Service (800) 357-1577

Travel

International students may travel anywhere in the United States. Students who are planning to travel outside the U.S. should ensure an advisor has signed the second page of their I-20. International Programs advises international students to carry their I-20 and passport when traveling outside of Washington state.
