On the evening of April 14, our college held an international exchange student consultation meeting in the conference room. Several teachers from Jacksonville State University in the United States had a discussion with more than a dozen students who were willing to come to our college to study international exchange students, and answered all kinds of questions raised by the students about international exchange students, including the training mode, training objectives, tuition fees and living expenses during school. It is reported that although the work has not yet officially started, our hospital and school have preliminary intentions.
