Question Assignment
Your second assignment is to go to the FAQ page and post a new question in the comments section of that page. What do you want to know that we haven't covered?
Necessities
Questions that only YOU can answer - and which you should answer, sooner rather than later:
- Does my cell phone plan charge roaming fees? Will I be able to use it in New York without racking up massive fees?
- Do I have a copy of my insurance information, in case of an emergency?
- Do I need to make arrangements for someone to take in my mail, or for my mail to get held at the post office, before we leave?
- Should I get a house-sitter? Do I need to have someone look in on pets?
- If you have bills that will need to be paid while we're gone, consider switching to online payment so you don't miss any notices.
- Make photocopies of your passport and/or driver's license or some other form of photo ID. Yes, we'll still be in the country, but it's good to have copies of these documents in your dorm room while we're traveling.
- Will it be possible to refill your medical prescriptions in New York pharmacies, or should you obtain an advance prescription before you leave?
- Do you have a credit card? If so, make sure to call their customer service number to alert them you'll be out of town for certain dates (fraud protection can automatically kick in and shut down your card if it's used in a drastically different zip code).
