Studying In The U.S As A Burmese International Student 😲 (California colleges, tips, culture shock)

This is my first time speaking in Burmese on KZbin and it may come off as a bit awkward, but I tried my best and shared my experience as a Burmese international student in the U.S. Even if you are not from Myanmar (Burma), these tips will be still useful to you! Thanks for stopping by!

I think employer may ask you personal info when you apply for a job. But the question is that there are many types of personal info such as bank account number, social security number, credit card number, contact numbers, address, date of birth, etc there are more. Which of the above did you give when you apply for a job? I am just afraid that it will be not safe to give my personal credit card number if they ask me.

Hi there! I know sometimes things can be unsure but you should really think about what you want to do. Also, if you are too scared of the cold, I suggest you study in California! I currently live in San Diego and the weather is beautiful and sunny, so don't worry too much about the cold. If you don't want to go to the US, it's definitely not late to prepare to go somewhere else. Don't go to the US if you don't feel like going otherwise, it's a waste of time and money. Best of luck!

In the US, if a student is good at learning, can he finish a 4-year college faster? Such as finish a college in 2 or 3 years like that? Also u said u changed school 4 times for the 4 year college. I don’t understand why u need to change school. Is it impossible to attend the same college 4 years so it’s convenient and no need to change the place. Btw ur so beautiful. Whoever got ur heart is lucky.

[@AlisonThazin]

I didn't change 4 times, it's actually three. First time was because I needed to transfer to complete my BAs, second time was because I couldn't afford to go to a UC school anymore so I had to switch to a state school. But before that, I had to fill out my gap months in order to still live in the states so I went back to the same cc again for a quarter.

[@AlisonThazin]

Yes, you can finish the 4 year faster depending on how many classes you take a quarter/semester, it will only be more challenging. If you want to attend the same college for 4 years, please choose a 4 year university (not a community college like me). Hope this answers your questions! Thanks for watching.

So u didn't need to take the SAT to apply De Anza?

[@AlisonThazin]

Nope! It is either SAT or IELTS. In my case, I took IELTS :)

In the US how many hours at most can a university student attend the class each day? Can they come to university at the weekend to attend class and self study there? If a student is sick so unable to attend the class, then can he attend the same class next day?

[@AlisonThazin]

Hi there. There is no limit as to how many hours you can attend each day, none that i know of. Students normally attend 3 to 2 classes a day depending on the class. Classes take place on the weekdays but students can self study in the university facilities during the weekend (depending on the school rules). If you’re sick, you’ll end up missing that class and you will not be able to attend that same class. The class will move on to another lecture no matter how many days u take off.

[@kyawzayarwin8027]

@@AlisonThazin I forgot to ask that how long is a class? Is that one hour per class?

[@kyawzayarwin8027]

Do they attend class at the weekend too? Or only weekdays most students attend class approximately 2 to 3 classes?

I went to crown education. They told me attend GED if I want to study abroad. So I am now attending GED. GED teachers told me it’s the same level as grade 12 of the US. And u told me you finished your high school plus IELTS and got to the US. I wonder what did u mean by high school? Does it mean u only attend grade 10 and IELTS and then u can go to the US?

[@AlisonThazin]

That is correct, I graduated Burmese high school and took the IELTS test and submitted the transcripts!

[@AlisonThazin]

And you can definitely go the same route as I do. But make sure to double check the school admission requirements!

[@AlisonThazin]

Yes scholarships do have age restrictions some time but it really depends on the school. All CCs are basically the same price, but prices can differ according to location as well. So try and find CCs at states where cost of living is cheaper. Maybe that would help 💗

Yes, I was able to do a part-time job but unfortunately, it cannot cover housing fees. You can only work 20 hours a week max and you earn around 10-15$ per hour and that is not enough.
