Tips and Advice for Chinese Students at OSU

Hi my dear Chinese friends, If you just joined OSU's big family and feel lonely, this page is for you. OSU is a great place to help you have a wonderful school life. This page will help Chinese students adapt to OSU campus life.

Tips for Studying Successfully

We left our mother country to study in America, so study must come first! But how can you succeed in OSU? Please see the suggestions in the Tips for Studying Successfully page -- they should help you on how to take notes in class, how to write essays in English, etc.

Find Your Housing

Most of the Chinese students who study abroad often have financial problems even if we have scholarships. We can't afford to live in the expensive rental houses or apartments. This page will help you find nice and cheap housing around our campus.

Shop Wisely

Studying in America is very expensive as a Chinese student. The tuition is high and so is the housing rent. That's why we try to cut our budget as possible as we can. But in order to survive, we've got to buy food, clothes and other daily necessities. So, to learn how to find nice bargains, read the Shop Wisely page and begin to save your money.

Keep Fit

A healthy body is the biggest fortune we have as an international student. After school, we should find some places to work out with our friends and relax. The recreation page will give you good recommendations of where to go and what to do.

Fun Activities

Because international students have left behind family and friends, our lives can start out boring and lonely. To meet new friends and get out of the house, here are Fun Activities that come highly recommended!
