Airport Pickup for New Students and Scholars
Welcome to Riverside! Good Friends Fellowship (GFF) of Riverside Mandarin Baptist Church (RMBC) and International Student, Inc. (ISI) are here to help you by providing FREE ride from the airport to Riverside. In order to make the airport pickup most efficient, we encourage you to:
- Step 1: Form groups with people coming on the same flight or same time. Tip: UCR Chinese Student and Scholar Association (CSSA) maintains some useful online networking tools including Yahoo mailing list, QQ groups, a facebook page, and a BBS forum. Contact CSSA if you have questions about how to join those groups.
- Step 2: Fill out and submit a request form
.
Note: Priority will be given to those who come in groups of 4-15 people. Each group member must submit a separate request.
The GFF and ISI websites provide useful information to help you settle down in Riverside smoothly. Visit us at http://www.goodfriendsrmbc.info/ , http://youhaveafriend.us or internationalstudents.org .
Wish you a safe and pleasant trip!
Your friends from ISI and GFF
