others depend on you and your background. like if u can speak english and get along easily but all these are secondary. if u can pay the fee. u ll hav a good time studying here as far as i can see.

Answer 2

A general list of problems which is not specific to anyone indivdual:

- Financial issues

- Home sickness

- Making friends

- Difficulty in understanding the college/university/course/class structure.

- Language barriers.

- Trouble finding an apartment

- Trouble finding health and renters insurance.

- Getting lost both in the new area they live and an on campus, difficulty getting around.

I am sure there are other difficulties and I am sure more people will be along to add to the list. However these are just general and temporary difficulties which in time can and will be overcome.
