York&U

This is from York U handbook for international students. The first I know is true, the second I shall wait and see.

Many students go through a period when they find themselves unable to handle the family expectations on a day to day basis. Living independently for a long period of time can sometimes make it difficult for you to have someone else make decisions for you.

Students feel homesick for Canada when they return home. You may feel that you no longer fit in. This is part of the process of living in a different culture. The best way to deal with this is to anticipate it. You’ve dealt with culture shock when you arrived in Canada so you know your strengths. Remember to allow time to reacquaint yourself with your home country when you return.
