We will welcome a panel of former Peralta International students who have successfully transfer to a university this past year. They will be on hand to talk to you about the process, adjustment and expectations of entering university life. We will also go over some of the basic processes to make sure you have a smooth transition.
See you there!!!
The COA International Student Club will have it's weekly meeting on Friday, March 18, 2016 from 4 to 5 p.m. in the Student Center Area, F Building, at the College of Alameda.
One of our international students from Thailand, Patsaralak Siripaweennakorn, who was enrolled in COA’s Apparel Design and Merchandising program, will be featured on the cover of the American International Education Foundation (AIEF) UScampus Guide Spring 2016 magazine.
The contest theme was “Favorite Class in Action”, which was voted on through AIEF’s Facebook page. UScampus Guide is a free magazine that features useful articles and information to help students succeed in their journey to study in the United States. Students can read online or download the magazine through AIEF’s website here: http://aief-usa.org/uscg. Peralta will also have an inside front advertisement to complement our appearance in the upcoming edition.
I would like to thank Jeff Heyman and Faiza Ali from our Department of Public Information, Communications & Media, who provided the photo for the contest. Also, to everyone who voted on Facebook to help our photo win!
Please help our school by voting for this photo to be placed on AIEF's US Campus Guide Magazine!
