The international student’s guide to studying and living in the United States.
> Politicians in the United States government have been mulling over a host of changes in laws that would make studying, living and working in the United States easier and more attractive for international students and scholars. However, as a result of poltical bickering and public discord, those laws currently lay dead. We tell you what the laws were, how they would have benefited you and if they will come back to life.

> What to do when your OPT authorization is about to expire but you’re still unemployed. We tell the true story of one graduate in this position, while our legal experts advise you about your options.  PLUS: We also provide a complete (well, a very thorough) guide to all there is to know about OPT - from when to apply and how to avoid the gap.

> We speak to the new class of male international students enrolled at a previously all-female college! Read what they had to say.

> We seek to find out if foreign doctors and international medical students in the United States are under any special scrutiny stemming from the bombings in London.
> We all know international students are generally here to receive a top-notch degree, but sometimes those plans don’t pan out and some students find themselves in criminal court. We sort fact from fiction and our legal expert gives advice on how to stay out of trouble and what to do if you do find yourself in a prison cell or in an interrogation room!

> Two-year colleges have always been attractive to international students. We find out exactly why.

> There have been a lot of talk about race and ethnicity in the United States of late. We tell you how to deal with it and how to ask the important questions without being offensive.

> Refugees have been flocking to the United States for eons, we found one who spoke frankly about his experience in his native country and why a gun was pointed at his head!

> If you’re an international student, entering the annual visa lottery might sound like a good idea. Well, it sometimes isn’t. Learn what you should know BEFORE you enter the “green card” lottery.

> Taxi cab confessions from unsuspecting international scholars.
> SEVIS
> Pay SEVIS I-901 fee
> Embassies
> Foreign Consular Offices
> Apply for a Social Security card
> File US taxes
> Find an immigration attorney
