Thomas Said:

Which major is better accounting or advertising?

We Answered:

In my opinion, accounting is a better alternative. If you understand the numbers you understand the language of business. Advertising is a good option but I would go with accounting.

F-1 STUDENT WORKING W/O SCHOOL AUTHORIZATION?

We Answered:

I think you already know the answer to most of your questions. You can't work off campus without your school's permission. I think if you can work, you can attend class, for that matter. However, what you really seem to be asking is whether you can get away with it. Maybe, maybe not. quite aside from whether the school finds out, there's also the question of whether DHS finds out. It's a violation of your student status and if they do, they can easily rescind your status and force you to leave. Will they find out? hard to say, but it's not impossible.

Hi.Has anyone here applied for their OPT in May and already received the EAD card?

We Answered:

Whoa! First of all, what country is this in reference to. Yahoo Answers is all over the world and I have no idea what country you are emmigrating from or to. Could you clarify this in your additional details.

I probably won't be able to help you, other than to suggest you check with the local embassy. Good luck to you. I hope you can get the paperwork straightened out shortly.

Is it worth to take a double major Bacholer degree?

We Answered:

It all depends where your career is heading.

If you are going to follow Accounting as a career path, that is, getting a CMA or a CGA degree, then the double major for your bachelor's is overkill.

If you want to go into International Banking, and have visions of becoming another Donald Trump some day, then the double major in both is a good start.

Spend some time thinking about which way you want your career to go. If you have a goal of eventually working for a particular company, call their Human Resources department and ask THEM which qualifications they would consider ideal. And then arrange your schooling to reflect your goal.

Any tips to spend one-month winter holiday in the US?

We Answered:

I totally disagree with Angelo. I don't know when he last visited NYC, but Manhattan is one of the safest cities I've been to in the past few years, even at night. My college-aged daughter has been traveling around to major cities on her own, including San Francisco, Chicago, Tucson, and Philadelphia, and she'd agree that Manhattan is by far the best place to be. I also don't think Angelo is familiar with modern Japanese society in major cities with its crush of people and flashy advertising all around you. I think you'd love Manhattan.

Check out Hostelling International USA. They have a hostel in the upper west side of Manhattan that I hear is pretty good. My daughter had a great stay in their Chicago hostel.

They also have locations in many other major cities.

Be sure to make your travel arrangements on the basis that major snow storms can cause major delays. You should look into getting travel insurance that includes coverage for trip interruption. Hostelling International memberships include travel insurance, I see.

Personally, I'd save San Francisco for when it's warmer. While NYC will also be cold and miserable, the sights are at least packed closer together and you can always duck into buildings. And then there's the New Year's celebration in Times Square to consider. Los Angeles is too spread out to see much without having a car or taking a guided bus tour.

Wouldn't your International Student Advisor be able to suggest other things to do besides a job or taking a trip?
