Dear AUAP Students:
Welcome to the Asia University America Program at Western Washington University! Our entire staff has been preparing for your
arrival and we’re looking forward to meeting each one of you.
As you begin the AUAP at Western, we simply want to remind you that you are going to experience an English language and cultural
orientation program, which can be characterized by its unique “balance”…
It offers great fun and adventure…
but it also requires serious, hard work.
It is practical and conversational…
but it also has a strong academic side.
It will help you converse more confidently and fluently…
and it will also challenge you to think critically and seriously.
We will do everything possible to help you experience this “balance” and to make your AUAP experience a time of great adventure,
great challenge, and great opportunity.
Sincerely,
Dean Hagin, Ph.D.
WWU-AUAP Director

Attendance and Participation Policy
Active participation in classes is essential for improving your English and taking advantage of opportunities in the AUAP. To actively
participate, you must attend classes every day and come to classes on time. You must also demonstrate a positive attitude of
respect and cooperation toward your instructors and classmates. All AUAP universities have the following attendance and
participation policy:
The goal is 100% attendance.
Two tardies (lates) equal one absence. A tardy is from 1 minute to 10 minutes late. If you come to class more than 10 minutes late,
you will be marked absent.
Student participation, conduct, and attitude will be monitored throughout the program. Students who are disruptive in class,
including the excessive use of Japanese, will be asked to leave the classroom and will be counted as absent.
If you repeatedly miss class, come to class late, or your behavior is considered inappropriate, you will receive a warning letter from
the AUAP Committee. A copy of this letter will be sent to your parents.
For absences, the warning letter will be sent to you if you miss 20 hours of instruction. There will be no excused absences.
If you miss 35 hours of instruction, the AUAP Committee will dismiss you from AUAP, and you will be required to return to Japan
immediately.
According to the AUAP Pledge, which you signed when you registered for AUAP, the AUAP Committee has the right to repatriate you
at any time.
The AUAP-WWU Director is required to report your attendance to Asia University on a regular basis.
11
Grading Policy
Your homework, class work, quizzes, examinations, special projects, and class participation are all included in your grade for each
class. All AUAP universities have the same grading criteria: participation, homework, and examinations. A certain percentage of
your grade will be based on each of these criteria (see below). At the beginning of the cycle, your teachers will explain how your
grades are calculated for each class. AUAP classes fall into two terms. At the end of each term, you will receive a final grade.
In assigning grades, the following scale is used by all AUAP universities:

AUAP Classroom Expectations
English Only - As a student in the AUAP, you should do your best to speak English only—both in your classes and among your friends
outside of class. The students who are the most successful in improving their English skills are those who use English at every
available opportunity.
Participation - Your active class participation is absolutely essential to your success in the AUAP. Your participation should include:
(1) interacting in pairs and small groups, (2) asking questions, (3) using English as much as possible to communicate, (4) volunteering
responses to your teachers' questions, and (5) paying careful attention to all class activities.
Sleeping in Class - Sleeping in class is considered to be extremely rude. If you consistently feel sleepy in class, you should adjust your
daily sleeping habits.
Attendance - As an AUAP student, you are expected to attend 100% of your classes. Your absences will be excused only in cases of
major illnesses or injuries. Absent students should understand that they are responsible for finding out what class work they missed
and for making arrangements to complete this work.
Tardiness - You are expected to arrive at your classes on time. If you arrive late to class, it is appropriate to give your teacher (after
class) an explanation and an apology.
Homework - Most of your classes will involve daily homework, such as reading, writing, or interviewing assignments. You can expect
to spend approximately two hours per day on the completion of homework assignments.
Appointments - If you have a question or problem in one of your classes, it is your responsibility to make an appointment with your
teacher to talk about it. Teachers normally have specific office hours during which they are available for student appointments.
Evaluation - In each class, you will be evaluated throughout the course of study—not just at the end of the course. Quizzes,
examinations, class participation, homework assignments, preparation for class, and improvement throughout the course are all
important parts of your evaluation. It is a mistake to think that test scores alone will determine your final grade.

AUAP Class Sections
Your TOEIC scores, FEP rating from Asia University, and your oral interview at WWU have been used to
determine your AUAP class section.
Your AUAP instructors want to help you improve your English as quickly as possible. To
make this improvement, you need to be in classes that are challenging, but not too
difficult.
If your classes seem too difficult or too easy for you, you should complete a Request to
Change Section form and talk to your instructors. Your instructors will then meet together
to discuss your performance in classes and your reasons for thinking that your classes are too difficult or too
easy. (See sample form in Appendix, Section 11).
AUAP staff members want you to be in classes that will help you improve your English. Work hard in your
classes and ask questions when you have them.

Section 5: Activities
AUAP ACTIVITIES
The AUAP provides many opportunities for students to experience American life and culture through a variety of activities.
Community Friends
This program gives AUAP students the opportunity to interact with American families. Participating students are matched with a
family in the Bellingham community. Your Community Friend family will invite you to share in an activity or for a home visit. This is a
great way to learn more about Americans as well as share some elements of Japanese culture with interested people. Students
enjoy teaching origami to children, cooking traditional Japanese food, teaching Japanese games and sharing pictures of family.
The AUAP student is responsible for maintaining contact and arranging times to meet with their Community Friend; this means
returning phone calls and emails. The AUAP student is also responsible to share ideas and feelings about life in the US, to share
about life in Japan, and to send a thank you card.
Campus Friends
This is a program that gives AUAP students an opportunity to practice English and learn more about American culture and university
life. American students at Western Washington University volunteer to meet with one AUAP student one hour a week for a quarter.
During this hour AUAP students can practice their English, discuss topics of interest, enjoy a cup of coffee in one of the coffee shops
on campus, or do other activities together.
AUAP students are responsible for maintaining contact and arranging times to meet with their Campus Friend; this means returning
phone calls and emails.
Program-Sponsored Events
The AUAP sponsors a variety of activities for student participation and enjoyment. Activities may include: all-day excursions to
Seattle and Vancouver, British Columbia; Campus and Community Friend Events; a Japanese cultural night; goodbye parties; a talent
show and an outing to a professional sports game.
21
Hall Activities
There will be several WWU residential hall activities for you to participate in. These activities are designed to help you take the
initiative in getting involved with Americans in your residence hall. Some activities in the past have included movie nights, craft
nights, banana split nights, and outdoor BBQs. Ask your RA or IPA for information about activities in your residence hall. Hall
activities are an excellent way to meet Americans and practice your English.
Other Activities
The WWU-AUAP also offers other activities for student involvement. Some examples of these activities may include club activities;
visiting local areas of Bellingham for shopping and sightseeing; volunteering with children, the elderly, and outdoors; going to
movies; meeting other international students; going ice-skating or bowling; and participating in an Outdoor Center activity such as
hiking or camping. The IPAs plan activities in the residence halls and on campus as well, e.g. soccer games, game nights, karaoke, and
potlucks.
Closing Ceremony and Reception
An official "AUAP Closing Ceremony" is held at the end of AUAP to acknowledge your successful completion of the program. At the
ceremony, speeches are made and awards presented. Special awards are presented for:
Students with Perfect Attendance
Most Improved Students
Outstanding Students
Most Inspirational Students (Inside of Class and Outside of Class)
Immediately following the Closing Ceremony is a reception, held in your honor.
22
Shipping Your Belongings to Japan
When you fly back to Japan, you are limited to bringing 2 checked bag that is less than 62 inches in length + width + height. There is

You may ship items to Japan through a shipping company. The shipping company will present information such as cost, package
size, and logistics one month before departure. The shipping company will come approximately one week before departure to pick
up packages.
Residence Hall Check-Out
At the end of the cycle you will receive information about checking out of your residence hall. The Check-Out
Information will include directions on how to check out as well as a cleaning checklist. Your IPA will help you
check out during your last few days at Western.
Donation Bins
During the final week of the cycle you may donate items to charity. Drop items in the special blue bins in your residence hall. You
may donate anything (i.e. blankets, stereos, clothes, etc.) as long as it is still usable. Your items will help people in need in the local
community. Do not donate items belonging to WWU (pillows, blankets, towels).

Advisor (RA). If you have circumstances that will prevent
you from leaving by the closing deadline above, contact
your Resident Director in advance for permission to stay
until noon on Saturday. Failure to checkout properly by the
deadline will result in a $35 improper checkout fee and
other avoidable charges.
Vacate and Clean Your Room Seek out your community's
collection bins to responsibly donate, recycle and discard
your unwanted items. If you checked out any bed parts to
bunk, loft or captain your bed, you must return those bed
parts and leave your bed in its original configuration.
Unreturned bed parts may result in a $30 fee; leaving the
bed set up incorrectly may result in a $15 fee; lost or
missing bed parts may result in a replacement fee as high
as $500. You are expected to leave your room clean,
empty and properly assembled.
Complete your Room Inspection The RA will bring your
original Room Inspection Inventory Form to assess the
condition of your room while you are present. Charges for
any cleaning, damage or missing items are split among
roommates and/or suitemates unless individual
responsibility is clarified during your room inspection. Be
aware that anything you leave behind will be considered
abandoned property and it will be removed at your
expense. The University assumes no responsibility for
abandoned property and has no obligation to return it to
you.
Check Out in Person at Your Front Desk Go in person to
your community's front desk during desk hours and submit
your keys and your Room Inspection Inventory Form. If you
cannot check out during desk hours, you must make
advance arrangements with your resident director (RD).
Failure to turn in keys when you check will result in key
charges of $100-$200. Checking out in person is required
even if you have lost your keys.

MARIJUANA: Possession or use of marijuana in any amount
by any person is prohibited by the University. Even though
Washington State law allows adults age 21 and older to
possess small amounts of marijuana for personal use,
federal law prohibits marijuana possession and use of any
kind. Because the University receives federal funds, the
University must adhere to federal laws pertaining to
possession and use of marijuana. Students with medical
marijuana are prohibited from possessing or smoking
marijuana on campus and should consult with the Student
Health Center for alternative treatment methods.
Your body is considered a container; therefore,
using/consuming drugs or marijuana (regardless of
location) and then returning to your residence hall
constitutes possession of the drug or marijuana.
Any student who remains in the presence of someone
violating this drug policy may be subject to conduct
sanctions.
OTHER DRUGS: No person may possess, use, manufacture,
cultivate, package, distribute, sell or provide a controlled
or illegal drug or substance. No person may misuse
prescription or nonprescription drugs; no person may
possess or use drug paraphernalia. Drugs are defined as,
but not limited to:
a. Any chemical substance, compound or
combination used to induce an altered state
b. Any otherwise lawfully available product, overthe-counter or prescription drug used for any
purpose other than its intended use
c. Any hallucinogen
d. Any intoxicant other than alcohol (alcohol is
addressed separately)
e. Any nervous system depressant

6.
違反が発覚した場合
Incident Report: An incident report is written to
document a situation that may be a violation of policy.
Being listed in an incident report does not constitute a
policy violation. No decision about a violation occurs
until those directly involved have an opportunity to
meet with a conduct officer.
Student Notification: The student(s) involved receives
notification via their University email account
regarding a meeting with their Resident Director (RD).
The RD may refer an incident to another RD, Assistant
RD, Assistant Director of Residence Life, or the
University Conduct Officer, who will then serve as the
conduct officer.
Conduct Meeting: At this meeting the conduct officer
first asks the student how things are going in general,
then asks for their perspective on the specific incident,
reviews the incident report and discusses any other
relevant information. Be honest with the conduct
officer; the conduct system is educational in nature so
expect your meeting to be a conversation. If you are
unable to attend your conduct meeting it is your
responsibility to notify the conduct officer to request
rescheduling.
Conduct Decision: After reviewing the available
information, the conduct officer determines whether a
violation has occurred, the degree to which the
student was responsible, and appropriate sanction(s).
Decision Letter: The student receives notification of
the decision in the form of a conduct letter via their
University email account within seven business days of
the conduct meeting. The student is notified if there
are extenuating circumstances that delay the letter
beyond seven days.
Conduct Referral: A student who voluntarily moves
out of University Residences or withdraws from the
University prior to the completion of proceedings is
not excused from pending conduct action. In such
cases, information is referred to the University
Conduct Officer for possible further action.

Standard of Decision-Making 判断の基準
The Conduct Officer uses the available information to
determine if it is more likely that a student did or did not
violate University Residences policy.
行動責任者は有効な情報を元に生徒が大学寮の規律の違

Consistency & Fairness 判断の一貫性と公正さ
All proceedings, including the initial conduct meeting, are
carried out in a manner that is informal and assures
fundamental fairness. Conduct officers evaluate each student's
situation individually when deciding the most appropriate
action to take. When sanctions occur, they may vary from
student to student, even when a similar policy violation occurs.
This is because multiple factors are considered in deciding the
best sanction for the individual, including the details of the
current incident, the student's previous conduct history, their

Sanctions 制裁
When a student has been found responsible for violating a
policy, one or more disciplinary actions may result. Disciplinary
actions are intended to hold students accountable for policy
violations, and to educate and guide students toward making
good choices and informed decisions in the future. In some
cases, interim sanctions may be imposed. An interim sanction is
not an indication of a violation; it is simply a community
safeguard until a decision about a possible violation(s) can be
made. Interim sanctions remain in place until the conduct
process is completed. If an interim sanction is violated, the
resident may be removed from the halls and referred to the
University Conduct Officer for further action. In addition to
being subject to possible sanctions, behavior that violates local,
state or federal law (e.g., theft, assault, rape, illegal drug or
alcohol activity) is referred to University Police.

RELOCATION TO ANOTHER HALL: Mandatory
relocation to another residence hall or apartment
within University Residences. This sanction is intended
to give the student a fresh start in another residential
community. The conduct officer may specify to which
community the student must move. Additionally, the
student's right to visit their former hall or apartment
may be restricted.
DISCIPLINARY PROBATION: Notice that additional
policy violations may result in eviction from University
Residences.
EVICTION FROM UNIVERSITY RESIDENCES: Mandatory
cancellation of occupancy in University Residences.
This sanction is typically reserved for students who
indicate an unwillingness or inability to live within the
parameters established by and for University
Residences. This sanction may include restriction of
visitation rights to one or more communities, payment
of a contract breakage fee, and referral to the
University Conduct Officer for action that may impact
the student's enrollment in the University.
DEFERRED EVICTION: Notice that further violations of
policy may result in eviction from University

personal feedback of: comparison of personal use with
WWU norms, amount and severity of alcohol
consequences experienced (again compared to WWU
norms), personal risk factors present, personal values
about alcohol and their belief about future alcohol
related behavior. Other options utilized may include
alcohol skills assistance, or referral to support or
treatment services as appropriate to the situation.
Individual Alcohol or Drug Assessments may take from
1 to 3 sessions depending on the situation and the
student's history of use and consequences.

The Conduct Appeal Process 上訴手順
Students have the right to appeal a conduct decision within five
business days of the decision letter. A link to the conduct
appeal form is included in every conduct decision letter. The
Assistant Directors and Associate Director of Residence Life
serve as appeal officers. Students may submit an appeal if they
believe any of the following has occurred:
•
•
An incorrect decision was made.
The sanction is unfair or disproportional.

上訴での判断の基準
43
When a student initiates an appeal, the student must
demonstrate to the Appeal Officer that the initial conduct
decision was incorrect or inappropriate. (Failure by the student
to have attended the initial conduct meeting is not a valid
reason to appeal a conduct decision.) The Appeal Officer will
review the written appeal, the incident report, and the related
conduct letters. The Appeal Officer may request to meet with
the student to further discuss the appeal. Within seven
business days the student will receive written notification of
the final decision. The original conduct decision may be upheld,
modified, or reversed. Decisions made by the Appeal Officer
are final.

Confidentiality 秘密性
All records resulting from conduct proceedings are maintained
by Residence Life, including Incident Reports, conduct letters,
emails and appeals. Records are not available to any member
of the public without written consent of the student involved,
except as noted within applicable laws. For example, when
information is necessary to protect the health and safety of the
student or other persons, certain exceptions are authorized
under WAC 516-26-085, Release of Information in
Emergencies.
Family Notification
The Family Educational Rights Privacy Act (FERPA) was
amended in 1998, giving universities the right to inform
families of dependent students who have violated drug or
alcohol policies. WWU notifies parents/guardians when a
student's housing is in jeopardy due to a drug or alcohol
violation, including probation, deferred eviction or immediate
eviction. Students are told in advance that their families will be
notified, and they are urged to initiate contact first. Please talk
with your Resident Director if you have questions or concerns.

Wait for police officers to assist you out of the
building.
If an active shooter is in your building, you are certain you are
not within range or in danger, and exiting the building is
possible, the following actions are recommended:
• Exit the building immediately- move away from the
area and seek shelter. Go to a nearby building and
follow the advice above. Avoid parking lots and open
areas.
• Notify anyone you encounter to exit the building
immediately (or not enter).
• Call University Police at 650-3911. If you are off
campus, call 911.
If the shooting is occurring outdoors, the following actions are
recommended:
• Move inside a building, if possible, and follow the
instructions above.
• If you cannot go inside, try to hide behind something
solid.
• Run away from the sounds of shooting, if you can do
so without increasing your risk.
• Call University Police at 650-3911. If you are off
campus, call 911.
If you are caught in the immediate area and escape is not
possible, the following actions are recommended:
• Play dead if you cannot get away - assume a prone
position and lay as still as possible.
• If you are caught by the intruder and are not going to
fight, obey all commands and avoid eye contact.
• Fight - your last option if you are caught in the open
and in close proximity to the shooter is to fight back.
This is dangerous and not recommended, but could be
your only option. Do anything you can in an attempt
to disable or slow down the aggressor. You can use
many types of items as weapons: books, trash cans, or
other small items.

Meals& Dining Dollars ミールとダイニングドル
Each meal plan includes a quarterly allocation of meals for use in
any of the dining commons, plus 162 Dining Dollars. When you
enter the dining commons, a swipe of your Western Card will
deduct your visit from your meal balance. Dining Dollars can be
used with a swipe of your card in any of the cafés and markets
across campus or to buy additional meals in the dining
commons. Unused meals expire at the end of the quarter; Dining
Dollars carry over from one quarter to the next and expire at the
end of the academic year.

Viking Dollars

ヴァイキングドル
Viking Dollars are a prepaid debit account that goes on your
Western Card and can be used at all campus dining locations
(except Vendors’ Row).
Save 10% off the cash price and pay no sales tax when using
Viking Dollars for food purchases made at campus dining
commons, cafés and markets. Non-food items are subject to
sales tax.
Anyone with a Western Card can use Viking Dollars - you
don’t need a meal plan to participate
Viking Dollars never expire as long as you are at WWU. Upon
graduating or leaving WWU, you may submit a written
request for a refund of the remaining balance to University
Dining Services, Edens Hall 109. Please allow 30 days for
refunds to be processed.

ミールカードの正しい使い方
Students who allow others to use their meal card will have their
card confiscated and be subject to University misconduct
proceedings. Students who use a card that is not their own will
be subject to a fine of $10 plus the cost of the meal(s) eaten and
will be subject to University conduct proceedings. Meal costs are
predicated on the premise that you will be the only person using
the meal card, and that you will miss a certain percentage of the
meals available. When you lend your card to someone else, food
service costs increase. The expense for Dining Service's
operations is shared by all students; cost increases are passed on
in the form of higher room and board rates.

DINING ROOM EXPECTATIONS ダイニングホールで期待されていること
The community nature of a university dining commons is unique.
Unlike any other eating situation, elements of both a home
atmosphere and a restaurant dining environment are present.
Students must respect the rights of, and cooperate with, other
diners in maintaining a clean and pleasant environment. We ask
your cooperation in keeping the dining commons atmosphere
one that everyone can enjoy.

Absences 欠席
Room and board charges take into consideration occasional
missed meals. Therefore, refunds are not granted in the event of
meal absences. However, if you are compelled to be out of
Bellingham for five or more consecutive days owing to
extenuating circumstances, you may request a refund of food
charges by contacting University Dining Services in Edens Hall,
Suite 109. Such an arrangement must be made in advance and
your meal card must be turned in to the Dining Services office
prior to your departure.

Take-Outs テイクアウト
Your resident dining rates are based upon your being able to eat
as much as you want while you are in the dining commons
during meal hours. However, a sack lunch or dinner can be
provided if you have a scheduling problem, such as a field trip,
other class or work commitment, or official school or residence
commons event, which will cause you to miss a meal. Your
request must be presented to your Dining Commons Manager at
least 24 hours in advance, or you may sign up for a sack meal at
least 24 hours in advance.
If you are too ill to eat your meal in a Resident Dining Commons,
contact your Resident Commons staff to request a sick tray. If
you are on a special diet for medical purposes and find that the
necessary food is not provided by the regular menu, please
contact your Dining Commons Manager. Written doctor's
instructions may be required.

WWU has an excellent library, recently remodeled and filled with numerous materials that might be useful when doing research for
AUAP classes. In addition to books, you can also borrow movies. The Student Technology Center allows students to have access to
workshops and tutoring, large-scale printers, scanners, and other items for check-out, including cameras/video-recorders. There are
also special rooms available for those who wish to practice presentations or edit audio or video files. Rooms must be reserved

Section 8: Living in Bellingham
LIVING IN BELLINGHAM
Safety
Bellingham is a small city. It is safer than Seattle or Vancouver, but you still need to be aware of personal safety. Here are
several suggestions to help you keep yourself and your belongings safe during your stay in the United States.
Room: ALWAYS lock your room, even if you are just going to the dining hall or to a friend's room. Make a list of your valuable
property, such as cameras, expensive sports shoes, etc. Next to each item write the brand name, model name, serial number, a short
description, and how much it is worth.
Cash: Do not carry more than $100. In America, even $100 is a large amount of cash to be carrying. If you need to carry more than
this, try to carry traveler's checks instead of money.
Night: Do not walk anywhere alone at night. You should try to stay with at least one other person after dark, and you should try to
use public transportation whenever possible. At WWU, special safety escorts called “Green Coats” are available to walk with you
after dark. Please see the section about Green Coats for more information.
Bicycles: Always lock your bike with a good lock. Make sure you lock the frame of your bike to something sturdy. If you only lock
your wheel in, your bike will not be secure. Use a metal “U” lock. Ask your IPA to show you the best and safest places to lock up your
bike. If possible, take it to your room at night.
Helmets: WWU-AUAP strongly recommends that AUAP students adhere to AU’s Helmet Policy for their own safety and protection.
AU Helmet Policy
To better ensure your safety, please wear a helmet whenever cycling, skateboarding, snowboarding, or rollerblading, etc.
*Helmets must be in accordance with standard codes.
The university considers your safety the top priority. We trust that each of you will understand and cooperate fully with the
new policy and that everyone will achieve their individual goals and return home to Japan in good health.
AUAP Committee Chair
Asia University
Seat Belts: Always wear a seat belt when riding in a car. This is a Washington State law. There is a fine of up to $124 dollars for
passengers who are not wearing a seatbelt while riding in a car.
Important Documents: Always take your passport, I-20, and student ID when you leave campus, e.g. to the Greyhound bus station,
to Seattle, or to Canada. If you lose any of these documents report it to the AUAP Office immediately.
83
University Police Department
If you are a victim of crime, report the incident to the University police at:
Emergency:
360.650.3911
Non-Emergency:
360.650.3555
The Police Department is located in the Campus Services Facility (CSF). It is at the intersection of 21st Street and Bill McDonald
Parkway, just behind the softball field. It is in the same building as the Health Center.
The University Police have the same authority as any other police office in the state of Washington. Officers are on duty 24 hours a
day.
In addition to reporting the crime to the University Police, report it to your IPA and an RA.
Green Coats
Green Coats are campus safety assistants. Green Coats can escort a person from one place on campus to another place on campus.
They provide assistance primarily during hours of darkness, but may be requested at any time.
To request a Green Coat:
1. Call 360-650-3555
2. Tell them:
• Your name
• Your campus address and phone number
• Where you are on campus
• Where you would like to go

Map of Bellingham

City of Bellingham
Bellingham is a city of about 82,000 people, located in the northwest corner of Washington State near the Canadian border.
Bellingham is located 55 miles (88 km) south of Vancouver, Canada, and 90 miles (145 km) north of Seattle. Less than an hour's drive
from Bellingham are the mountains of the North Cascades with many recreational opportunities.
Bellingham is more than just a college town. Many students make Bellingham their home after
graduation. It is a community with a strong identity of its own, and like Western, it has a friendly and
familiar flavor that is attractive to people from larger cities and smaller towns. Some of the features of
Bellingham are listed in the next few pages.
Parks
Most parks are open from dawn to dusk, and have specific rules about pets, motorized vehicles, boats, and alcohol. It is important
that you read and obey all park rules.

Services in Bellingham
Banking
If you want to open a savings or checking account, there are several banks and credit unions within walking distance of WWU. Most
Americans do not carry large amounts of cash with them. It is safer to withdraw money from the bank, as you need it. Do not leave
large amounts of cash in your residence hall room!
If your parents need to send you money during the program, the two safest ways are international money orders, or by international
wire transfers. International money orders may be purchased at any Japanese post office and a check will be issued and mailed to
you in American dollars. Japanese money orders should be purchased in small amounts – for example, $100 or $200. It may not be
possible for the local Bellingham post office to cash money orders larger than about $200 on one day. You may need to make several
trips on different days if your parents are sending a large amount of money. Sometimes it is helpful to call in advance.
Credit Unions vs Banks
Credit Unions
Local
No fees, or lower fees, on everything
Better member benefits
Fewer ATMs, but usually cooperate with banks so members can
have access to money through other ATMs for a fee ($2-4)
Does not charge for ATM use as long as the ATM is owned by
the credit union
Must check on what is required for wiring money
internationally; make sure it’s possible
Banks
More widely known
Higher fees on everything
For profit; members are secondary
Many ATMs in various cities
Usually charges for ATM use ($2-4), unless the ATM is actually
located at a bank branch
Usually very easy to wire money internationally
Bank Machines (ATMs)
Banks and credit unions offer a card to use at the ATM, so you can get cash at any time. Keep your card safe. Memorize your 4-digit
secret number and do not carry it with your bank card. If someone takes your card and gets money from your account, the bank will
not replace the money.
Below are a few of the banks/credit unions in Bellingham which are within walking distance of WWU. These banks/credit unions
offer savings and ATM services. To open a savings account and apply for an ATM card, go to one of the following banks. Bring your
passport and at least $100 for initial deposit.
Key Bank
1221 N. State St.
Horizon Bank

Local Transportation
The WTA Bus is Bellingham’s local transportation system. Your WWU ID is also your bus pass. WTA buses do not run on holidays:
- New Year’s Day (January 1)
- Memorial Day (Last Monday of May)
- Independence Day (July 4)
- Labor Day (First Monday of September)
- Thanksgiving Day (Fourth Thursday of November)
- Christmas Day (December 25)
Western's Late Night Shuttle runs for your convenience at some times at night when the WTA bus does not provide service.
Schedules are posted around campus and at the VU Information Desk. Routes cover the campus residences, downtown Bellingham,
and Sehome Village.
Bikes – Bicycle storage is located throughout campus. Be sure to lock your bike at the designated bike stand to avoid impoundment
and to reduce chance of theft. Become familiar with the Bicycle Commuting Guide, which covers dismount zones, traffic safety,
bicycle parking and security, bicycle repairs, and equipment tips. The guide is available at the Parking Service Office. It's also a good
idea to register your bike at the University's Department of Public Safety.
Yellow Cab Taxi Service – Taxi service is available at those times when buses are not running. The taxi
company charges $2.50 for pickup and $2.40 per mile. You can share the cost of the taxi with up to five
people. Here is an example of how much it costs to go to common places in Bellingham:
From WWU campus to Bellingham Airport – about $25.
From WWU campus to downtown Bellingham – about $5.
You can reserve a taxi online by using a special form. Go to yellowcabinc.com and click “ON-LINE Taxi Request”. You can also reserve
a taxi by phone at 360-733-8294. If you use the online form or call, you must have the following information ready:

Long-Distance Transportation
Greyhound Bus
The Greyhound Bus is an inexpensive way to travel to many different locations around Washington, Canada, and the US, but
sometimes the bus stations are in dangerous areas of town. When you travel by Greyhound, make sure you travel in daylight hours
or travel with a friend. This bus stops at the Fairhaven Transportation Center, so you must first take another (WTA) bus to get there.
1-800-231-2222 / 360-733-5251
greyhound.com
401 Harris Ave., Bellingham, WA
*Important: You must buy a ticket ahead of time if you want a seat on the bus… However, buying a ticket does not guarantee your
seat on a Greyhound Bus. On busy travel days you must arrive early (up to two hours) and wait in line to get a seat.
Bolt Bus
The Bolt Bus is even less expensive than the Greyhound Bus. Destinations and pickup times are limited, however. You can take the
Bolt Bus to Vancouver, BC, Seattle, or Portland. Tickets are sometimes as inexpensive as $6, but it depends on the day and time you
want to ride. Also, Wi-Fi is available on the Bolt Bus. This bus stops at Cordata Station, so when riding the Bolt Bus you must first
take another (WTA) bus to get there.
1-877-BOLTBUS (1-877-265-8287)
boltbus.com
4194 Cordata Pkwy., Bellingham, WA
Amtrak Train
The Amtrak Train is a good way to travel between Vancouver and Portland, or Seattle and Spokane. It is more expensive than riding
the bus, but it is also safer and more reliable. Amtrak connects many cities in the US and Canada. Go to their website to check ticket
prices and plan your trip, or visit/call the Fairhaven Transportation Center (711-5251). You must buy your ticket in advance. Amtrak
is not a fast train, but is a great way to travel if you would like an American experience. The Amtrak Train stops at the Fairhaven
Transportation Center, so when riding the train you must first take a WTA bus to get there.

any stop, but there are only a few stops and you must buy your ticket in advance. To make a reservation, call the office or go to their
website. The Bellair bus stops at 1204 Iowa Street, so you must first take a taxi to get to the Bellair bus stop. This is the best way to
get to SeaTac airport.

Travel Safety Information
Protecting Your Money
Never carry large amounts of cash.
Always use debit or credit cards.
Keep a copy of your credit card numbers in a separate location to refer to if they are lost or stolen.
Never show large amounts of cash, when paying for things or checking into a hotel.
If you wear a money belt or passport holder wear clothes over it.
Check your credit cards every day.
If your credit cards are missing, call your credit card company immediately.
Write down the phone number of your credit card company and keep it separate from your credit card.
Protecting Your Things
When sightseeing, put cameras and souvenirs inside your backpack.
Never leave your luggage alone.
Your travel partner should watch your luggage while you are taking care of any necessary matters, e.g. checking in for a flight.
97
When traveling on a plane, always carry important items such as medicine, your passport, camera, jewelry, tickets, or important
souvenirs in your carry-on luggage, not in your checked luggage.
Personal Safety
When sightseeing at night, never go alone. Use a taxi to a specific location or go with a tour. Do not use the subway at night.
You and your travel partners should decide on a meeting place and time in case you become separated (your hotel or a restaurant).
Make sure you have the cell phone numbers of your travel partners.
Become a totally different kind of traveler: this is not Japan. Keep reminding yourself of this. Train yourself to become “street smart”
– this means that you always know where you are and who is around you.
Learn to trust your feelings. When a situation makes you feel uncomfortable or afraid, move away immediately. Do not relax too
much. This is a common mistake that travelers make.
Walk tall and with confidence. Make only quick eye contact with people around you.
When walking at night, try to stay near streetlights. Avoid short cuts, alleys, parks, and isolated parking lots.
Do not be very trusting of strangers.
Be careful of people who seem overly friendly. If their friendliness seems insincere (not true), do not continue to talk with them.
Do not enter an elevator alone with a person you do not trust.
Do not travel alone! Always travel with someone. Join organized tours. Never walk alone, especially at night.
If you someone wants to steal your money, do not fight. Give what is asked for (cash, watch, jewelry). You may want to carry money
(about $30 in a separate wallet) which you can give if someone wants to steal your money.
Try to avoid bus or train stops with only a few other people around.
If you travel to Canada remember that the legal drinking age is 19. However, if you are under 21 years of age you may not be able to
return to the US if you have been drinking, or you may receive a citation.
Be careful about drinking alcohol while traveling because it becomes easier to be too relaxed in your environment.
If you need to call the police or an ambulance in an emergency, you can call 911 from any pay phone. Explain the problem and
where you are.
Never get into a vehicle or enter the home of a stranger.

Visits to a staff physician, nurse and health counselor are available by walk-in or appointment. Appointments
generally must be made the morning of the day you wish to go: it’s best to call for an appointment before
10am. You can ask an IPA or the SSC to help you make an appointment.
Most of your medical care can probably be provided by the Student Health Center. If you are sick when the
Health Center is closed or if you have an emergency, call 911. If it is not an emergency, you can take the bus or
call a yellow cab taxi to a walk-in clinic or St. Joseph's Hospital. Call the AUAP Insurance Line first, if possible ((800) 511-8271) and
always bring your insurance card.
If you need a specialist while you are in Bellingham, you will need to contact the Health Center first for a referral.

In addition to the services of the Student Health Center, WWU offers Prevention and Wellness Services (PWS).
The goal of Prevention and Wellness Services is to prevent illness and injury and to promote maximum health
and well-being of Western students. PWS is staffed by professional health educators, a registered nurse, and
trained student health educators called Lifestyle Advisors. The Lifestyle Advisors present programs in residence
halls and AUAP classes on such topics as: Alcohol Risk Reduction, Safer Sex, Sexual Violence Prevention,
