就讀體驗

1學(xué)術(shù)：學(xué)校有豐富的資源，幫助學(xué)生在課堂和專業(yè)方面都變得有遠見。教師們通常都有空愿意幫助學(xué)生。學(xué)生往往都聚集成小組，這樣學(xué)習(xí)有熱情也能相互幫助。我們可以選擇的課程范圍非常廣，所以再拿不定主意的學(xué)生都能找到他感興趣的課程！

2多樣性：這里的人們都能真正接納其他人。沒有很多歧視，至少我沒有看到很多。學(xué)校的人一般都很包容，心態(tài)開放。對于學(xué)生群體的特征，真的是可以用多樣性來形容他們。

3體育：學(xué)校對體育很重視，但也并不是日常生活中特別重要的部分。學(xué)生經(jīng)常組成體育代表隊參賽，大家都很支持他們，學(xué)校的體育精神超贊！

4校園飲食：有四個很容易找到的地方可以吃飯：市場、咖啡廳、 Saler中心和Wawa。這些地方都還行，只是有點舊了。到很晚的時候，必須得去Wawa?；蛘呖梢渣cDominoes的外賣。

5安全：我感覺非常安全，也沒有聽說過什么犯罪。我的室友覺得有人拿走了他的電腦，但是后來卻發(fā)現(xiàn)是他自己落在圖書館了。更驚訝的是，他過了 6個小時才去圖書館把電腦拿回來。

6學(xué)校管理：威廉瑪麗的學(xué)生可以娛樂起來！學(xué)校只會對一些學(xué)術(shù)犯罪的學(xué)生進行懲罰，比如作弊?；蛘呤峭盗藙e人的自行車或者筆記本電腦。懲罰非常嚴(yán)重，但不嚴(yán)重也不好，因為這樣創(chuàng)造了一個良好的環(huán)境，學(xué)生都會相互信任，并不擔(dān)心受騙。

7交通：除了要去很遠的地方之外，通常我只乘坐公交出行。公交范圍很廣，學(xué)生可免費乘坐，到達城內(nèi)的絕大多數(shù)地方。如果要出城，交通站走著也可以到，有 Greyhoun、Amtrak和公交車可以乘坐。

8當(dāng)?shù)馗艣r：威廉瑪麗和古鎮(zhèn)威廉斯堡挨著，那兒不僅有很多美味的食物，也是另一種接觸和了解美國歷史的獨特方式。真的很安全，每個人都非常好。

就讀體驗

1學(xué)術(shù)氛圍：金融專業(yè)是很受追捧的專業(yè)，有很多 可以選擇的課程。很多 金融方面的課程是所有商學(xué)院專業(yè)的必修課。商學(xué)院 的教學(xué)設(shè)施很棒，有一個 模擬室。商學(xué)院的基礎(chǔ)實力雄厚，有比學(xué)校其他任何專業(yè)的學(xué)生都多。杜蘭大學(xué)很大程度上把重點都放在了商科上面，他們經(jīng)常邀請一些演說家來，也會召開一些招聘會等等這樣的事情。我們也有龐大的校友圈。如果你學(xué)的是商科專業(yè)，那你得通過商學(xué)院到國外進修，對比別的專業(yè)來說會覺得厭煩，沒有太多的可去的地方，比如說藝術(shù)專業(yè)，但是他們每年的人數(shù)還是在增加。

2多樣性：杜蘭大學(xué)缺少種族多樣性，但由其他方面彌補了。我們是全國最具有地域多樣性的學(xué)校了，有很多國際生。宗教信仰方面也有很好的多樣性，雖然大多數(shù)學(xué)生不是猶太人就是基督徒。杜蘭大學(xué)是個很自由的學(xué)校，但是還是有一些保守派存在的。

3體育：體育是校園生活很重要的一部分。橄欖球比賽是一年中非常重要的賽事活動了，每個人都會某種程度上參與其中。這些比賽中體現(xiàn)的校風(fēng)都非常高漲。很多學(xué)生都會一定程度上參與校內(nèi)體育活動。

4校園飲食：很多學(xué)生會去吃 Bruff那里的食物；對于一般學(xué)校的餐飲標(biāo)準(zhǔn)來說，那里是食物相當(dāng)不錯了。除此之外，學(xué)生們還有很多其他的選擇。

5校園住宿：很漂亮的校園，擁有各種各樣的設(shè)施（體育館，一個室內(nèi)和室外的游泳池，很多的方院，一個自助餐廳，一個健康食物市場，一個每夜都通宵營業(yè)的餐館，等等），還有，每個教室到任何宿舍都只有 10分鐘步行的距離。很好的地面。Monroe是最好的大一新生宿舍，很有生活氣息。Butler或許是最糟糕的宿舍了。每年挑選宿舍的手續(xù)有點像小巡演，但是最終都會有結(jié)果的。

6交通：杜蘭大學(xué)的校車有時候有點慢，但是它能帶你去任何地方 ——商業(yè)區(qū)，住宅區(qū)，沃爾瑪購物中心，標(biāo)靶中心，新視角商城，湖邊商城，美食大全，鮮貨商城，國際市場等等.有軌電車很慢，有時也打不上車。NORTA可以每15分鐘跑一班車。但可真是個大瞎話。巴士要比有軌電車快一些，但也別指望它們會準(zhǔn)時。

就讀體驗：

1學(xué)術(shù)氛圍：UIUC以工程為金字招牌，所有 和工程有關(guān)的專業(yè)都是全美甚至是全世界頂尖的。比如 UIUC最好的專業(yè)是土木工程，全美第一也是全世界第一，從校園內(nèi)的建筑便可見一斑。其次，與計算機、化學(xué)、數(shù)學(xué)沾邊的學(xué)科，UIUC都非常出色，計算機是美國前5，化學(xué)、應(yīng)用數(shù)學(xué)、電子工程、工業(yè)工程、航天工程、環(huán)境工程等等都是美國前10，農(nóng)業(yè)、營養(yǎng)學(xué)也都是非常熱門的學(xué)科。值得一提的是，工程院也是UIUC最富裕的學(xué)院，蘋果捐過電腦，AMD捐過大樓，還建有美國最大的超級計算機。Internet起源于此，網(wǎng)景(Netscape)是UIUC人編的，YouTube是UIUC畢業(yè)生的成果。

2多樣性：學(xué)校國際生比較多，開放多樣的環(huán)境為話題的討論提供了很多不同的視角，幫助 學(xué)生變得更加開放包容。

3體育：UIUC的學(xué)生和校友都擁有很好的校風(fēng)傳統(tǒng)，大家都很以學(xué)校取得的成績?yōu)闃s。我住的宿舍和橄欖球場很近，每到比賽日，停車場就到處都是興奮的球迷，聚集在一起為校隊吶喊助威。體育設(shè)施也都是一流的，并且全年免費為學(xué)生開放。

4飲食：校園食物十分豐富。如果你住校的話，你在任何一個餐廳吃飯都可以用飯卡，所有的食堂提供的食品也都不一樣。PAR的食物全校最佳，IKE的種類最多。需要說明的是，Busey那里你能得到免費咖啡，那里也有最美味的餅干提供。

5校園住宿：校園住宿的好壞很多還是取決于你自己。有很多宿舍可以算得上是 “聚會天地”各種喧囂，也有其他一些相對很的宿舍。也有很多特殊的房間，比如為榮譽課程準(zhǔn)備的學(xué)生，或者為那些有共同興趣愛好的人準(zhǔn)備的房間。

6交通：UIUC的交通從來都不是問題，ID卡可以讓你做所有的MTD巴士，帶你 去學(xué)校的任何地方，也可以 到達校外的一些很受歡迎的地方，比如 購物中心，沃爾瑪，電影院 等等。很多人 有車，可以 很方便的就去一些地方。當(dāng)然，很多學(xué)生 選擇步行或是騎車去上課。U IUC 是一個流行騎車的校園，校園里 有很多自行車停放處和行車道。

【微語】出國留學(xué)，是人生的一次重要選擇，也許會有遺憾。不過，這樣的經(jīng)歷，也正是讓你成熟起來的標(biāo)志吧！
