Although everything is different from what she was used to,
studying in the USA has not been very difficult for Amina Kussainova, an
exchange student from Republic of Kazakhstan.
Currently, Amina is studying international relations at Utica College. She is also an active member of some of UC clubs and organizations.
Last semester Amina participated in several
events organized by UC Circle K and did community service with some other
members. Recently, she also joined Utica College Art Club and is looking
forward to participating in their upcoming events.
From the day one, when she found out she was
going to study abroad, in the US, Amina has been very excited about it. And now, when she is almost done with her studies and will be getting ready to go home in May, Amina says, "I
have gained a lot of experience of communicating with
different students from different countries all over the world, and have become
friends with pretty much all of them. I have learned so much about
different cultures and mentalities."Besides enjoying her time in the US and studying, Amina has been coming up with some plans to work on when she goes back to Kazakhstan.
Amina wants to work on something like the UC Circle K. Also, she wants to organize holiday celebrations, such as International Students' Day,in her home university. Studying at Utica College and being a part of International Students' Club have made Amina curious about international student studying at her own university back home.
Do you think you know a
lot of internationals who study at your college? Feel free to share your
