What should we pay attention to about the safety of studying in the United States?

What safety issues should international students pay attention to:

Security of regional selection

For example, for students studying in the United States, no state can be said to be absolutely safe, but on the whole, it is safer on campus than off campus; Small cities are safer than big cities; Areas with simple personnel composition are safer than areas with complex personnel composition; Rich areas are safer than poor areas. Pay attention to whether the area is safe when renting a house. Students who live in big cities or schools in poor security areas should always be vigilant and deal with them carefully.

Avoid going out alone, but walk in groups.

When you go out, you'd better go together, try to avoid crowded places and keep quiet. The more partners we have, the less likely we are to be attacked by criminals. If you go sightseeing, you'd better put your camera and video camera in your backpack. Don't look at the map while walking. If you are on campus, you can make full use of the safety facilities provided by the school, such as school bus and school police escort. Whenever you go out, you should take your mobile phone with you. If you feel that someone is following you, call the police immediately. Before going out, you should inform your teacher or friend of your travel information.

Take care of your belongings.

Don't be careless about the use of cash, credit cards, etc. Keep less money in your wallet, keep cash in your bank account, and carry a small amount of emergency cash with you. Although some emergency calls are free, you can prepare some coins for emergencies. Take as few unused credit cards as possible. It's best to write down the phone number of the department of the credit card company that handles the loss report card. If you lose it, you can report it by phone immediately, because most credit cards are stolen within 24 hours after it is lost. After shopping, check the bill carefully, tear up the receipt and throw it away.

Actively use the phone for help.

Be familiar with and check whether the stairs, emergency exits and escape routes on campus are unobstructed. If you are in trouble on campus, realize that someone nearby can help you. Many campuses have security systems. In addition, you should know the emergency telephone number and contact person of the school, the alarm telephone number near your residence and the telephone number of the local embassies and consulates in China, and take it with you. If you are in danger, you can get in touch in time and ask for help.

Noticeable little details

When you go back to your residence at night, you should prepare the key before you arrive, open the door and enter the house in the shortest time, and always pay attention to whether anyone is following you or hiding in the corner near your residence. If there is any suspicious phenomenon, don't enter the house and notify the police. In addition, if you share a house with others, you must negotiate not to give the keys to other friends at will. Once you are in danger, you should be calm. If criminals only rob property, they can hand over the money first to avoid violence. Try to remember the characteristics of criminals, then call the police when it is safe, and describe the characteristics of criminals in detail. If your life is in danger, you should try your best to resist and call.

Defend one's rights and interests by legal means

The principle that international students should follow after an emergency is not to take drastic or even illegal measures, but to use local legal means to safeguard their legitimate rights and interests. Try to know what happened, call the police and collect all kinds of favorable evidence.

You should take a clear-cut stand in explaining the incident to the police. If you are not sure, don't say or say less, and then find a lawyer. If the incident is serious, foreign students should contact the local embassy or consulate as soon as possible to get their help. In case of being robbed, you should call the police in time. If the mobile phone is robbed, the insurance company needs compensation and must have a certificate issued by the police.
