Program: Dual Degree (Northern Arizona University, NAU)2+2
Quoting a famous author, Wang Xinrui expressed her study tour feeling: "if you don't walk away and leave everyday for a long time, you will never know what the repeating life means. To leave the routine days is the meaning of travel."
Northern Arizona University is located in the city of Flagstaff, Arizona’s only city with snow, as well as one of the best placed to observe stars in the world. To have their longest journey under the most beautiful starry sky will surely bring Wang Xinrui an unique experience.

Both her lodging at local house and the warmth of seniors in SDSU left her a deep impression. I was well adapted to the new life though I just spent two or three days, thanks to San Diego’s good weather, the warmth of home-stay, the guidance of help from teachers and students. To stay here does not just mean learning. There was even screaming Carnival excitement at midnight. The teachers arranged various projects and showcase, so that students from different countries formed a group to communicate and learn from each other. During the weekends or holidays, the landlord would take us to the party or the local event, so that we can understand the local culture and be able to melt into it better."

"Talking about social life, Britain is a very civilized country," said Ma Ziyuan. They queue quietly, though in a hurry. Pigeons fly everywhere and scaring away pigeons is against the law. As for learning, education in the UK can be summed up with the word“rigor”. There was much pressure and a lot of self-learning, though it was an autonomous study week. In China, what you have to do is to take care about your study, but in the UK you have to do everything in your life."
