The things you need to bring to study abroad vary from person to person. Everyone’s living habits and preferences are different, but some basic things must be taken into consideration. The following is the number one brand agency for studying abroad in the United States. ---Study abroad experts from Beijing Jiahua Shida and Beijing Huaheng have summarized some commonly used items that you need to bring. As for the items you bring, you should not only bring this, you should try to be as thoughtful as possible. 1. Books and dictionaries Except when prices are reduced in bookstores, American books, especially textbooks, are usually very expensive. Compared with domestic prices, those books for TOFEL and SAT exams are not cheap. Although it is possible to buy cheap books at online bookstores, international students have just arrived in the United States and it will take some time to apply for a credit card. Therefore, online shopping that requires credit card payment is not feasible for the time being. Therefore, try to bring as many reference books as possible. For example, I remember that during the years when I went abroad, there were popular strategies for getting a TOEFL score of 600 in China. After I came to the United States, I could not see such books at all. The Chinese-English bilingual information in China is definitely more comprehensive than that in the United States. It’s best to bring a book like this. This is especially true for those whose English proficiency is temporarily inadequate. An English-Chinese dictionary should be necessary, and a dictionary that can translate between English and Chinese is even better. 2. Clothes As far as I know, few ordinary Americans recognize domestic brand-name clothing. For example, apart from the Chinese, few people in the United States knew about the "Top Ten" domestic brands "Li Ning" and "Deng Yaping". American brand-name clothing is more expensive in China. I remember that year, I went to a shopping mall in Beijing and saw POLO, a popular casual brand in the United States. The price was about one thousand yuan. In the United States, it shouldn't be that expensive. When on sale, you can get the same clothes for about twenty dollars. After coming to the United States, students need to do as the locals do. Based on this consideration, you don’t need to bring too many clothes. My personal opinion is that for international students, ordinary American brands of clothing are enough. Such clothes are usually very cheap. If the family has the conditions to bring popular American brands from China, it is common for them to bring POLO, TOMMY, NAUTICA, etc. If you can bring some counterfeit goods from China, you may be able to pass them off as genuine, and the economic benefits will be excellent:) 3. Electrical appliances and other daily necessities The voltage in the United States is 110 volts. Therefore, you must consider when bringing electrical appliances from China. As for quilts and sheets, if they take up too much space, you don’t necessarily have to bring them. Because even if you buy these things in the United States, you won’t suffer too much in terms of price. Beds in the United States are divided into the following sizes: single bed (TWIN), double bed (FULL), queen-size bed (QUEEN), and king-size bed (KING). In every shopping mall, there will be matching sheets and quilts with corresponding numbers. 4. Medicine Medical expenses in the United States are more expensive than in China, that’s for sure. International students usually buy medical insurance. Even so, in the United States, there is a registration fee (COPAY) to buy medicine and see a doctor. Different insurance companies have different COPAYs for seeing a doctor. They range from $10 to $30, and specialists will be more expensive. The COPAY of a drug is not exactly the same depending on the shortage of the drug. Therefore, it should be okay to bring an appropriate amount of commonly used emergency medicines (for example, antibiotics). But don’t bring too much of any medicine, otherwise it will expire. Also, I know that the price of eye ointment in the United States is not cheap compared with that in China. But now that airport inspections are strict, you have to be careful when bringing such medicines. -----------------------1. Air ticket 2. Passport 3. I-204. Admission letter 5. Documents 6.

Waterproof or windproof jacket (1-2). Windbreaker (with windproof hood). 4. A set of short sportswear. A set of sportswear. 5. One or two coats/fur coats. The mid-length down jacket can be taken apart and washed separately if you want to save face. 6. Sweater: one or two thin ones, one with round neck and one with small sweetheart neck. c) Pants: 1, jeans (3), casual pants (3-5). Nowadays, the length of trousers can be changed at will. It is recommended that you buy the trousers and wash them in hot water before changing the length of the trousers. This may prevent shrinkage during drying. 2. There is no need to have too many spring and autumn trousers and linen trousers. 3. Beach shorts (12). 4. Swimming trunks. d) Underwear (12 sets). e) Socks (6-10). f) A pair of leather gloves. g) Shoes: two pairs of casual leather shoes, one pair of hairless boots, one pair of travel shoes, and one pair of sports shoes. Very comfortable pair of slippers.
Insoles(10). h) Sunglasses should be so-called depolarized (I heard this from others, I don’t understand the physical principles). Used for driving i) Quilt: 1. A thin quilt, you can consider silk cotton quilt or space cotton quilt, not too thin, consider it according to the indoor 20 degrees. A thin blanket is optional. Quilt cover. 2. One vacuum pillow, two pillow cases, and pillow towel. The double bed has two sheets (the usual beds in the United States are much wider than the single beds in China) and a double bedspread. j) Warm hat. 19. Bags: a) A backpack, which should be of good quality and may be used to hold a laptop. A backpack that is slightly larger than a schoolbag can be used as carry-on luggage when traveling in the United States. b) Box: I recommend everyone to buy good ones. I can’t imagine that a 100-yuan box can be used. A better box should be between 400 and 600 RMB. High-end boxes are made of engineering plastic shells, the kind that can hold people on top. They are heavy and expensive, costing more than 400 RMB. The more common one is the one with canvas surface and backing, semi-hard but not hard, about 200RMB. It is recommended to buy one and put valuable items that are not heavy-duty in a decent box. 1 small box. c) Attached: Free checked baggage instructions: Passengers going to the United States: two checked bags and one carry-on baggage. The maximum weight of each piece of checked luggage is 70LBS/32KGS, and the maximum sum of the three sides of each piece is 62inches/158cm. The maximum weight of hand luggage is 40LBS/18KGS, and the maximum sum of the three sides is 45inches/113cm. The weight of the luggage carried on the plane is two large checked luggage, each piece is 32 kilograms, and the dimensions are length + width + height = 158 cm. Note that it is not the circumference. I went to the store and asked to buy a No. 76 suitcase, which is the size. A piece of hand luggage is theoretically 5 kilograms, and there seems to be a length, width and height limit of more than 50 centimeters, but no one cares about it. 20. Tableware/cooking utensils: a) Plastic lunch boxes and bamboo chopsticks that can be heated in the microwave. spoon. b) Cooking utensils: a single-handled pot for cooking (must have a lid and a shovel). You can buy rice cookers and ceramic soup cookers here. Bring a kitchen knife, not a knife for chopping bones. If you buy ribs at the supermarket, you can ask people there to cut them for you. A cutting board, preferably plastic. Bring a small stainless steel pot to cook milk, cereal, etc., and it doesn't take up much space, because you can put all the CDs in it, and X-rays won't go through. There should be no problem with the CDs going through customs (just based on personal experience). If you like boiling water to make tea, bring a kettle and put all the medicine you bring in it. Some people said that there are no thermos bottles sold in the United States, so I bought one. It was very similar to the one in China. Many Chinese people will also buy an electric hot pot when they come, so that it is convenient to invite friends over for dinner without having to cook a lot of dishes. 21. Daily necessities: a) Sewing box, scissors, nail clippers, comb, towel, toothbrush and other necessary items. It’s best to carry it with you as your luggage may arrive a day or two later than you. Shampoo, toothpaste, toothbrush, towel, nail clippers, soap, test peel, skin care products, sewing kit, folding umbrella, pen, notepad, small alarm clock, slippers, hairdressing tools, etc. Bring extra toothbrushes and towels. b) Calculator. Small microphone for computer. c) A camera that is good quality and small enough to carry around. You can carry two rolls of film, and KODAK is very popular here. d) Rechargeable batteries, it is recommended to bring 4×2. You can also carry two sets of dry batteries. e) Electric shaver. Buying a passable electric shaver here costs more than that. No need to bring extra blades. f) Photo album. 22. Racket. 23. Small gifts: Prepare to give to bosses and friends who have helped. It doesn't need to be particularly expensive, but you should keep a few copies. If you are a Japanese, it is recommended to give silk: a tie for a man and a silk scarf for a woman. 24. Stationery: mechanical pencil, ballpoint pen, ruler, set square, eraser, school bag. 25. Map of the United States. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------1. Air ticket 2. Passport 3. I-204, OfferLetter 5.

You may need to make a phone call at the airport to buy water or food. 10. Glasses (3 pairs). Be sure to include a pair of myopia glasses that can be clipped with sunglasses and polarizers. Do not wear tinted myopia glasses, as they only tint the lenses, not real sunglasses, and cannot block ultraviolet rays. Polaroids are required when driving. You may consider buying some contact lenses and bringing them with you, because prescription glasses are expensive in the United States and may not be covered by insurance. Contact lenses are necessary during exercise.
12. Clothing: a) Formal clothing: suit (1), tie (1-2), tie clip. b) Top b1, T-shirt (12-14): Bring at least a week's worth of changes of undershirts, of any length. You need to change undershirts every day, and you usually wash clothes once a week or two, so bring at least one change that can last for a week. . b2. Shirts: It is not advisable to bring too many shirts because there are not many opportunities to wear them. You can bring 1-2 pieces of good quality that are suitable for wearing a tie. American shirts are also very cheap on sale. b3. Outerwear: jackets, casual shirts, windbreakers (1-3) b4. Sports shorts b5. Woolen coats/leather coats (1-2). Mid-length down jacket (2). b6. Sweater (1-3), it doesn’t need to be too thick, and the collar doesn’t need to be too high, because the heating is not very hot, so you can just wear a sweatshirt indoors. c) Pants: c1, jeans (1-3), casual pants (1-2) ). c2. You don’t need to wear many long johns. There are not many opportunities to wear them outdoors. Indoors, the air conditioner in the car is very hot. c3. Swimming trunks. It is recommended to buy the American ones that are knee-length. You don’t need to bring them from China. d) Underwear (>12 sets). Pajamas (2-3 sets) e) Socks (6-10) f) One pair of leather gloves. g) Shoes: two pairs of casual leather shoes and two pairs of sports shoes. You can bring a pair of plastic slippers and a pair of wool slippers. The insole is just the right amount. h) Quilt: h1. A thin quilt, silk cotton quilt or space cotton can be considered. A thin blanket is optional. The quilt should have a quilt cover. h2. One vacuum pillow, two pillow cases, and pillow towel. The double bed has two sheets (the usual beds in the United States are much wider than the single beds in China) and a double bedspread. j) Warm scarves and hats. Secondly, only the commonly used medicines are needed. There is no need to bring more. Firstly, it is easy to expire. Secondly, it is recommended to go to the school hospital for treatment when sick and use insurance to pay the bill. Thirdly, antibiotics in the United States are better than those in China. 3. Tableware/cooking utensils a) A kitchen knife. b) Bring a small stainless steel pot to cook milk, cereal, etc., and it doesn’t take up space. You can put all the CDs in it. 4. Daily necessities a) You can bring nail clippers, because they are more expensive in the United States. A set of combs, towels, toothbrushes and other necessary items is enough and can be easily bought in supermarkets. It’s best to carry it with you as your luggage may arrive a day or two later than you. It is not recommended to bring sewing kits, folding umbrellas, pens, notepads, and small alarm clocks, because they are sold very cheaply in supermarkets. Hair cutting tools can be considered because many boys need to cut their hair frequently. e) I don’t recommend carrying multiple electric shavers, just one. Because manual razors are more comfortable to use and are easily available in supermarkets. Electric ones are prone to voltage discrepancies. 22. Racquet. You can bring a good badminton racket. But tennis rackets are not necessary because I think American ones are more affordable and good quality. 23. Small gifts: Prepare to give to bosses and friends who have helped. 24. You can bring a school bag with you, plus a bag for notebooks. Other stationery is not necessary. 5. Others 1. CD, VCD, software 2. Books: a) Kuaiyitong (double translation). b) Mathematics (Mathematics Handbook, Calculus, Linear Algebra, Numerical Analysis, Functions of Complex Variables). c) Professional books. d)Unix, C/C++e)Recipes and cooking knowledge. Since almost all indoors are equipped with air conditioning and heating, the clothing structure in North America is different from that in China. Clothing has shifted from the diversity that changes with the four seasons in China to the singleness that focuses on adapting to around 25 degrees Celsius. So you have to Prepare more shirts and trousers of various colors. What’s interesting is: shirts in China are mostly white, while few people in North America wear white shirts. There is a very important tip. In winter, the temperature difference between entering and exiting the room is too big. When you come in, There are frequent opportunities to take it off and wear it when going out. Therefore, when choosing winter clothing, it is best to choose draped clothes with two pieces on the front and buttons or zippers, such as jackets, sweaters, etc. The top ones are easy to add or subtract, but the bottom ones are more troublesome. La. There are two countermeasures: first, when choosing winter coats and tops, intentionally buy longer ones to protect the lower parts from the wind and cold. Second, try to wear some thick jeans or trousers that can prevent wind and cold. Of course, if you are not afraid of If the room is too hot, just add a pair of trousers or velvet pants inside to solve the problem. Sunglasses are not just for decoration, they can be used for many purposes; the sun and ultraviolet rays in the south are very strong; the sunshine after snow in the north is very irritating to the eyes. Large; in addition, many places have strong winds, which can prevent wind and sand; when driving on the highway, you often encounter strong reflections from other cars in the distance. It is very necessary in China. Bring a headset and camera, there are no discounts here in the United States These things weren't cheap back then. Clothes are washed and dried here, so clothes that shrink will shrink even more. For clothes that need to be changed frequently, such as T-shirts, pay attention to choosing types that are not prone to shrinkage.
You need to bring a lightweight and warm quilt (including quilt cover). Blankets are heavy, and there are usually air conditioners in the rooms here, so it is not recommended to bring them. You need to bring some pillowcases and sheets. Note that the bed sheets should be purchased in a double size. If you still have room in your suitcase, bring a double comforter. Cooking utensils: No need to bring them. They are sold in supermarkets and the price is not necessarily expensive. These things are too heavy and take up too much space. Some small items, such as lunch boxes, spoons, forks, dishwashing rags, and cleaning balls, are available in supermarkets and are not expensive. According to my observation of current domestic prices, some are even cheaper than in China. Thick sweaters are the last thing you need, because you wear T-shirts and shirts in spring, summer, and autumn. In winter, the room is heated, so you can just put on a down jacket or something when going out. It is easy to put on and take off. At least ten pieces/set of underwear: You will gradually get used to bathing and changing clothes every day, and going to the laundry room once a week. T-shirt, bring a lot of clothes. One mobile hard drive and one long and short network cable. All types of wires here are relatively expensive, and you can also bring some S-terminals. If you have an electrical appliance with a three-hole plug, bring two conversion plugs 1-2. Note that you also need to consider whether the voltage is consistent. "You basically don't need to bring stationery. They are all available in schools and laboratories, such as calculators, paper, pens, etc., all of which are large. Kitchen utensils include knives and shelves for steaming things. Everything else is as follows // at the back It’s other people’s opinions. I think they make sense. I’ve also added my opinions in parentheses: I found that most of these articles teach you how to burst a bag. We are not international tycoons. Why bring so many? My advice is not to bring anything you can buy here. If you don’t care about the small difference (you won’t care about it when you get your first month’s salary), you can go to the supermarket and buy a complete set of cooking utensils. You must bring a pot with a handle (it must have a lid and a spatula). //You must not bring it. You can buy a set here for twenty or thirty yuan (2)》A kitchen knife, //not too big.
