Preparations...

I finally booked the flight: I am leaving Sunday 7th January at 12.55 with Swiss to Chicago and with United to Minneapolis where I will arrive arround 19.30 local time.

The desired courses have been accepted by the "Anrechnungsstelle" at my home university as desired... :-) I only have to get the elected courses during the first week in Minneapolis... due to visa restrictions, I am only allowed to "preselect" the classes, they will finally be approved during introduction week.

So, what's left.... I only need to get an accommodation... and yes, the visa application on the US-Embassy in Bern...
