Review
American Community Colleges: The International Student's Guide is a great educational resource for any prospective international student interested in obtaining undergraduate education in the United States. Moreover, this book, particularly chapters 6-8, is a very helpful resource for newly arrived international students who are in the process of registering for classes and settling in the new community. Web links of supplementary resources are provided at the end ofeach chapter with additional information on specific topics that are covered,which is another notable feature of this book. Finally, this book could also be used by community college recruiters who are interested in recruiting international students. The information provided in the book could be used to make a case for a community college being a first choice for international students. ~ Dr. Nara Martirosyan, Journal of International Students, Vol.8,Issue 2 (2018)
This reading is completely indispensable and essential if you're planning on studying in the USA (community college, but also university), but also it teaches you so many useful things like how to get a visa, getting certifications (like TOEFL), the cost of living, among other important advices that can be helpful for everyone who's going to travel to the USA (either for vacation, business or studies).
