When I was eight years old, I never thought about what my college life would be like. I was mostly interested in things like dolls, anime, snacks, etc. Until I was sixteen, it never occurred to me that one day I would take a nine-hour flight to Europe to continue my studies. However, nothing is impossible.
Problems encountered
University life in Belarus turned out to be not as smooth as I expected, especially when I started to study Russian. Before I came to Belarus, I didn’t even know a single letter from Russian alphabet, and taking classes, shopping, and even buying subway tickets was possible only through body language. I am still often embarrassed for not being able to speak Russian and understand what other people are saying. Fortunately, I met patient teachers and friendly classmates who helped me with my language learning.
Learning style
At university you will have to plan your work for weeks, even months ahead. You need to bear in mind, that you will have an examination at the end of each term. What is more, you will have essays or laboratory work, or translations, or papers to prepare for seminars in the interim. But the major test by which your academic progress is assessed may seem remote to you. But you shouldn’t forget about it! Therefore, you have to plan work for some time ahead. Hence it’s necessary to develop good habits and methods of study.
Activities at university
It is often said that college life is boring, and I am firmly against it! At least in the journalism department, you can learn about many new and interesting activities. There are always many posters about various activities in the teaching building. Anyone can participate as long as you are interested, and you can make new friends there. The school also often holds various competitions. For instance, recently, a football match was held. My groupmates participated in it and performed very well.
A fascinating university life is a unique experience, so no matter how you spend it, it will be the most amazing and wonderful time of your life.

Afternoon! I want to thank you for the written text, it makes it clear what to expect for international students when they arrive in another country and study abroad. I liked the structure of the publication, you diluted the sentences well with pictures, making it easier to read and fueling interest in reading further.
