Of immediate importance given the current state of the world: make sure you get your covid test within 3 days before boarding your flight (this is a CDC requirement for every inbound flight to the US and it may or may not have been brought up by your airline) Other misc stuff: - Look for international student groups/clubs in your campus; it's a great way to make friends, especially once things start opening up with the vaccination rollouts. - Bring a stash of alfajors and other local goodies, you'll miss them soon enough. - Be prepared to learn about the differences in spanish dialects from every country in south america :)
