This program is for all international students who attend 体育菠菜大平台. 无论你是英语语言学院的学生, 一个学期的海外学习, 或者在你学习的最后一年, the 国际友谊计划 is a great opportunity. You will be able to meet up with a local host to experience life in Nebraska. This gives you the chance to practice English in a relaxed setting, 建立友谊, 在社区中建立联系. This is also a great program to apply to with a friend! Many of our hosts will have multiple students at a time. Each individual student needs to fill out an application, and then just mention on your application form the other student you want to have a host with.
时间承诺是一年. You will be asked to meet up with your hosts 1- 2 times a month on average during that year. You are also asked to communicate and set up meet up times with your hosts and let them know ahead of time if you cannot make the meet up. 我们也希望你邀请你的主人来体育菠菜大平台! If there is an event on campus, your hosts are always welcome to join you!
