What are the travel guidelines for first-year students?

Travel Guide

1. Mode

The choice of travel mode can be determined based on the length of the journey + weather conditions + economic conditions.

(1) Train

Train is the first choice for most freshmen who have long distances to travel, and it is also a relatively safe way to travel.

College freshmen can enjoy discounts when buying tickets with their admission notice - half price for hard seats; 25% discount for sleeper tickets; no discount for soft sleepers and soft seats; second-class tickets for high-speed rail and high-speed trains 25% off discount.

(2) Airplane

Flying is comfortable and fast. During the school season every year, some airlines will also launch some preferential policies for candidates and parents. But overall the cost is still very high.

In addition, you should check the airline’s official website in advance for the baggage check-in procedures and charging standards.

(3) Car

For candidates who have long journeys, it is not recommended to choose a car. Sitting in a car for a long time will make you feel very tired, dizzy and nauseated. In addition, there are no deductions for bus fares.

2. Safety

When you go out, it is best not to carry a large amount of cash with you, so as not to give thieves an opportunity. It is best to transfer living expenses and other expenses to your bank card and only carry a small amount of pocket cash with you.

When riding in the car, don’t just focus on sleeping. If you want to sleep, please put your bag under your head or hold it in your arms. In short, even if you fall asleep, it should be within your control. Inside. When getting off the bus, please make sure to check your luggage 15 minutes in advance.

No matter where you go, please remember to develop the habit of carrying your ID card with you now. You should also keep your tickets, especially train tickets and boarding passes, which contain a lot of personal information.

For students who are traveling for the first time, please prepare some medicine to prevent motion sickness. You can also bring some Fengyoujing.

If you want to change trains, don’t let others buy tickets for you! You must go to the regular ticket window to buy tickets and get on the train, and don’t take advantage of scalpers’ tickets. Remember, safety comes first when you go out for the first time.

It is recommended that you take a hard seat to go to your school. If the journey is long enough, it will also be an opportunity for you to meet many interesting friends of the same age.

It’s best not to take a seat in a hurry if the “taxi” or “school bus” is overly enthusiastic at the station entrance. In addition, don’t take a “taxi” without a meter!

Develop the habit of taking a taxi and asking for an invoice. You can find the taxi owner through the invoice. If something is missing, you can also contact the taxi owner through the receipt. Check with the taxi company.

If you arrive in the middle of the night, don’t believe what people like the “school leaders” who are waiting for you at the station say.

If you bring a backpack, please carry it on your chest for safety.

3. Entering the school

On the first two days of school, all colleges and universities will set up school orientation points at train stations, bus stations, and even airports. Freshmen can take the school bus back to school under guidance, which is safe and convenient.

After arriving at school, there will be seniors and seniors who will take you through a series of procedures such as registration, payment, meal cards, etc., including your packages, enthusiastic seniors and seniors will help you pick them up. Remember to say it sincerely Thank you!

But there are a few points that students should pay attention to:

When faced with seniors or seniors welcoming students enthusiastically at the station or airport, be calm! Look carefully at the signs they hold in their hands. For example: the keyword "XXXX University (big characters) Vocational College (small characters)" is in a college, not a university, which may be far away from the school you want to go to.

After arriving at school safely, Remember to call home to report that you are safe!

Remember to say thank you to the teachers and seniors who helped you register!

When you arrive at school, please register and pay as soon as possible, and leave it to the school The money is safe once you pay it.

Remember to ask for an invoice after paying. If you don’t have an invoice, keep the receipt. This is proof that your tuition has been paid.

Don’t forget to tell us. The contact information of the head teacher, counselor and parents should also be known to parents, because that is your own responsibility.

If you want to apply for a tuition loan, you must know your local area in advance. Check the student loan policy of the student's place of origin, as well as the school's tuition exemption or student loan policy to see if you are eligible, so as not to be in a dilemma when the time comes.
