Essay by Abdullah Arfaj
Many students around the world now try guaranteeing their future by studying in a competitive school. Most of the competitive schools in the world are found in The United States. As a result of that, a person should have a perfect base of English to rely on. Texas A&M University has an intensive English institute that welcomes students from around the world. If people think about Texas A&M University as one of the great universities in the US, it should attract students to come into this institute. Before students come to this institute, they should follow a procedure to join the ELI. This procedure is before you come to the ELI, when you are on your way, and when you arrive to the US.
First of all, before a student comes to the ELI, he or she should fill in the application that is required for applying to the ELI. Then, a student should finish the student visa that allows him or her to enter the United States. When the institute accepts a student, she or he should receive the I-20, which is as important as the visa. All of these documents should be with the student before the flight day. These documents are the only identification papers for the international student.
Secondly, when the student is on the flight to the United States, the flight attendant in his or her flight is going to give him or her a paper that is related to immigration. The student should fill in the paper with the correct information. After that, the student will fill in another paper called the I-94. This paper is important when you want to go back to your home country, because the immigration wants to know your arrival and departure dates.
As the last step, when you arrive at the airport, a student should go through the immigration line. Sometimes when it is the beginning of the semester, the immigration line will be full of students who are coming after a vacation in their countries. Unfortunately, you will probably wait a long time. When your turn comes, you will have a small interview with the immigration employee. You will be afraid a little bit if it is the first time. However, do not worry. The immigration employees are very friendly. But even if you know that before, you will be still a little bit afraid. The employee is going to check your visa and the I-20 and ensure that your information is correct.
In conclusion, this is the procedure that a student will face to join the English Language Institute in Texas A&M University. After all of these difficult steps, you will deal with friendly people in Texas especially in College Station. The international students in the ELI and the instructors are really helpful and friendly. If you are looking to the best educational environment to learn English, come to the English Language Institute in Texas A&M University.
