全球参与办公室(GE)是专门的国际办公室,当你来到我们大学学习时,会帮助你获得支持. GE办公室位于康纳利任务中心,我们的工作人员周一和周二上午8:00至下午6:00,周三至周五上午8:00至下午5:00. You may also contact us via email at globalengagement@swhyglobalsco.com.
GE办公室为国际学生提供各种重要的服务, a listing of these services are described in more detail here:
我校为所有新入学的国际学生提供全天的新生培训. 我们努力使国际学生顺利过渡,通过这个到达后的指导. We will help you the various dimensions of basic life needs such as, cultural norms and culture shock, health insurance, cell phone and bank account setup, on-campus employment, driver’s license/social security setup, and direction to other campus resources.
交通对于在阿比林的国际学生来说很重要. 一群热爱国际学生的志愿者帮助提供必要的交通工具,以参加团体活动,并满足机场接送等重要需求, Sunday Church, Friday Greens’ family dinner, Walmart, hospital and emergencies, etc. 对于其他基本的交通需求,你需要安排当地的优步或出租车服务.
Health insurance in the U.S. 是否非常重要,因为医疗费用会迅速增加,如果不投保就很难支付. To meet U.S. Department of State guidelines and protect our international students, HSU要求所有国际学生通过国际医疗集团(IMG)购买HSU团体保险。. HSU将在每年秋季和春季学期自动将您纳入HSU与IMG的团体计划,并在您的学生账户中收取保险费. 欢迎国际学生在加入华大团体医疗保险计划的同时,申请其他医疗保险, 但你仍然必须购买HSU团体计划,以确保你在HSU注册的整个时间内都有适当的保险.

Once you are enrolled, 国际学生保证在我们安全的校园里有一个地方住,在那里你可以很容易地获得我们所有的资源! HSU offers community residence halls, campus apartments, and campus houses all in convenient walking distance to classes, dinning halls, and student activities.
