Welcome to our new site......

Updated on Tuesday 03 June 2008

Welcome to the new InternationalStudent.com website! As you can see the format has changed very drastically from our previous design with the hope of improving both the ease to find things but also to improve your overal experience. We have re-organized and improved the navigation, updated and upgraded many of the resources, particularly the Study Centers and Blogs, and added some great new content on financial aid, study abroad and international communications, to name just a few!

As so much has changed, whether you are new to the site or an old friend, you may need some help finding things, so here is a quick step-by-step guide on how to find exactly what you are looking for on our new site:

1 - Top Navigation Tabs
The site is now organized around 5 main navigation categories, which you can find in the colored tabs at the top of each page - Home (blue), Study Centers (green), Products/ Services (purple), Resources (brown) and Blogs/ Forums (grey). The entire site is now organized under these main categories, so for example if you want to find out about calling cards you would need to look under our Products/ Services as this is a product that we offer. If you wanted to find about about Financial Aid in general, this is a Resource, so you would need to look under there.

2 - Popular Pages
In the top right hand box of the home page, we now have a "tag cloud" which lists the most popular pages on our site, the larger the font, the more popular the page.

3 - Search Box
If you cannot immediately find what you are looking for - then simply use the new "Google" powered search box in the top right hand corner of every page or just below this text. Enter in your keywords or search phrase of what you want to find and it will search our site and network sites for you.

4 - Sitemap
If you are still lost and cannot find what you need, then you can use our sitemap which provides you with an overview of the whole site in an easy to use format.

The new site also brings some great new sections for you to learn more about studying abroad and being an international student - some of the new sections include:

> Study Centers
We have added a new "Study Centers" section to our website which is the base for our study advice centers for the USA, UK, Australia and Study Abroad. If you are new to our site this should be one of the first places you visit to learn more about studying in one of those countries.

> International Financial Aid
One of the most important issues for any international student is financial aid such as loans and scholarships - our new financial aid section is packed with loads of information, guides and products to help you!

> College/ University Directory
If you are looking for a school, our greatly improved college and university directory now has listings for the USA and schools around the world, plus online virtual campus tours!

> International Communications
We have built a new communications center where you can find out all about keeping in touch with advice on sim cards, VOIP, calling cards and much more..

> Blogs and Forums
We have greatly expanded our blogs and forums to provide you with up-to-date and relevant content, much of it written by international students such as our Study UK Blog and Study Abroad Blog.
