CORNELL UNIVERSITY 校园访问 【转载】

伊萨卡 Ithaca,一个美国旅游非传统目的地的小镇,坐落在纽约州中部Cayuga湖边,人口3万左右,其中最著名的就是常青藤名校康奈尔Cornell University,其校园被誉为最美常青藤。

最近又到国庆日,好多童鞋会来做校园访问,为来年的入学做人脉储备,为这么做的童鞋赞一个!美国是很公平,不过也异常讲究人脉,老美没事就会参加各种Social,拿一杯啤酒就能聊一晚上,主要是为了认识新朋友,就业、升值、跳槽、创业等等机会就是这么搞出来的:)所以花时间来学校做访问绝对值得,尤其是常青藤。下面介绍下Ithaca地区的校园访问注意事项吧。


    机票:伊萨卡主要用的机场是Ithaca Tompkins Regional Airport在伊萨卡北部地区,这里没有大飞机,都是小飞机,螺旋桨的那种,国内没有直飞的航班,可以在纽约、费城等转机过来,大家可以从网上查查机票,我个人建议买机票的时候用英文网站使用USD直接支付,会比用RMB支付便宜很多,即使你算上汇率的波动。


    酒店:伊萨卡地区的酒店大家从Booking,Agoda,Expedia等网站都能定,在这就不多说了,我经常使用的是Priceline能够bid房价:)不过需要早些时间去bid,时间越近,bid的可能性越低,因为房价越贵。


    车:美国这个地方,除了纽约等大城市公交系统发达,其他地方没车是寸步难行,大家如果做很多学校访问的话可以下飞机就租车,一路开,就是很累,不过时间会很自由,也方便很多,如果东海岸和西海岸都访问还是飞机吧,太远,我去年来这边然后开车从伊萨卡到芝加哥,用了2天…芝加哥还是属于美国中部…所以大家根据自己行程考虑下。机场的交通信息大家可以在这里查看 http://flyithaca.com/content/view/ground-transportation.html  貌似机场没有租车的地方,所以如果直接飞过来的话,要打车了,或者大家可以联系我。康奈尔大学距离机场较近,伊萨卡大学距离较远。


    停车:伊萨卡不大,城区及学校附近需要停车付费,其他地区基本免费停车,不过很多地方需要停车许可,建议大家不要随便乱停,被拖走的话非常麻烦,花费很贵,我在学校有一次使用咪表停车场,一小时1.5刀,我超时5分钟回来,一张条贴在了前挡风玻璃…35刀罚款…学校区域查违章停车尤其厉害,据说他们在这个方面赚得很多,所以异常“勤奋”!我在周六日也见到过查违章停车的。一般收费车场或者一部分灵活的车场在每天17点以后或者周六日全天可以随便停,不过一定仔细看停车标示!学校区域的咪表停车信息:

    校园访问建议:提前和要访问的院系通过电话或电邮联系,确定好访问时间,男生女生都应该穿职业装,携带个人简历(备用),准备点小礼品(不要太贵但要有特色,老美这种收礼物很谨慎,太贵的直接会被拒绝),准备好要问的内容和聊天内容,带纸笔进行记录,拜访结束后和接待你的人写感谢电邮,以后要尽量保持联系。


    这里是最美常青藤,所以做校园访问可以顺路旅游:)
