Back As soon as you arrive to the United States it is natural to have feelings of shock. Culture Shock is common in most overseas travelers and can last anywhere from one day to one week. When you land in the United States, you should follow your employer specific arrival instructions sheet. Be sure that you collect all of your baggage and file any missing baggage claims before you leave the airport. Be sure to call home, eat a good meal, and get good nights sleep! students@unitedworkandtravelcom
