Pre-Arrival Information

New Jersey Climate and What to Pack:

新泽西州气候多变:冬天寒冷，周期性降雪, humid summers, and some very pleasant periods in between. Warm jackets, scarves, hats, gloves, and boots are essential for winter (November-March). 在雨天，防水外衣和雨伞是必不可少的. You may also want to bring small personal items, such as photographs, traditional dress, or other items to personalize your new home. Keep in mind residence halls have limited space. 到美国后最好购买电器.S., as appliances manufactured outside the U.S. may not be compatible with the power supply.

It is advisable to carry a small amount of U.S. 现金，纸币和硬币，用于支付行李车、公共汽车/火车票价和小费. 大多数机场都设有货币兑换站.

When to Enter the U.S.:

购买机票时，请在I-20或DS-2019上注明出发日期. You are allowed to enter the United States no more than 30 days before the reporting date listed on your I-20 or DS-2019. You should not enter the United States after the start date listed on the I-20 or DS-2019. If you are facing unexpected delays, 请尽快通知我们的办公室讨论您的选择.

在飞机上随身携带的重要文件:

• Passport
• Original I-20 or DS-2019 (the immigration officer at the embassy or consulate may have put this in a sealed envelope or stapled it to your passport. Do not open; the officer at the airport will open it)
• Payment receipt of I-901 SEVIS Fee
• Evidence of financial support
• 如果签证官需要核实你的学校或项目的信息, you can call campus police at 973-655-5222 and they will contact the Office of Global Engagement on your behalf.

Inside the Terminal: I-94 Arrival/Departure Record:

Once inside the airport terminal, proceed to the immigration booth, and present your passport and your I-20 or DS-2019.  Expect to have your index fingers scanned for fingerprint purposes and a digital photograph taken, as required by regulations. The officer will stamp your passport for duration of status (D/S) and the date you entered the U.S.  The officer will create an electronic I-94 record for duration of status (D/S) and the date you entered the U.S. You can access your I-94 online immediately at http://i94.cbp.dhs.gov/I94/‎. When you are able to check it, be sure the I-94 has the appropriate visa status (F-1 or J-1).  In certain cases, if there is a problem with your documents, you may be issued a 30-day entry and issued a form I-515, 并指示你去见你的国际学生顾问. If you receive this form, please email oge@eagle1027.com upon your arrival.

If you are traveling by land, 你会拿到一份I-94出入境登记表, before arriving. 这是一张长长的白色卡片，学生填写表格的顶部和底部部分. Complete the form accurately. Make sure your name, date of birth, 国籍和你护照上写的一模一样. 如果你看不懂表格，请向服务员寻求帮助.

Secondary Inspection Requirements:

如果入境口岸的官员最初不能核实你的信息, or you do not have all of the required documentation, 你可能会被引导到一个被称为“二次检查”的面试区域.” Secondary inspection allows inspectors to conduct additional research in order to verify information, without causing delays for other arriving passengers.  The officer will first attempt to verify your status by using the Student and Exchange and Visitor Information System (SEVIS). 如果签证官需要核实你的学校或项目的信息, you can call campus police at 973-655-5222 and they will contact the Office of Global Engagement on your behalf.
