What to Bring … And How to Get It There

Learn something about the climate and weather in the area around your new college or university to determine what types of clothing you will need. To keep travel simple, bring as little as possible. You are less likely to lose luggage if you follow the baggage limitations of the international airlines. You may find, however, that bringing certain items from home will help you to feel more comfortable in your new surroundings. Some students like to bring items to share as gifts with new friends and acquaintances who may never travel. Such gifts need not be expensive — indeed, they should not be; their purpose is to tell others something about your home country.

If you wish to ship some of your belongings in advance, check with your institution for the appropriate delivery address. You can obtain information about freight and shipping services through local travel agents. Insure any valuable items that you ship overseas.
