New Years Day (1 January): The first celebration of the year! Check out Times Square in New York City to ring in the New Year, American style.

St. Patrick's Day (17 March): Once you've recovered from celebrating New Year's, get prepared for St. Patrick's Day -- when everyone is a little Irish. Take a trip to Chicago where they dye the river green for the occasion.

At this point, you are half-way through your semester. Now is the time to think about your flight home to visit family once final exams are over. Book your discount student travel with StudentUniverse.

Memorial Day (last Monday in May): When booking, be sure to keep in mind that Memorial Day is when most Americans are beginning their summer with a weekend away. Camping in the White Mountains is always a great way to spend this long weekend!

Independence Day (4 July): Planning to stay in the US for the summer? Celebrate the United States' Independence Day with a cookout / barbecue on the grill and a great fireworks display. Learn about the history of the US with a trip down the Freedom Trail in Boston.

Labor Day (first Monday in September): As the summer comes to a close, enjoy one last long weekend away before Fall semester starts. Catch some sun before the colder weather sets in, with a trip to the beaches of Southern California.

While you're at StudentUniverse, don't forget to also book your flights home for the end of the semester!

Thanksgiving (fourth Thursday of November): A day of giving thanks in North America. Most Americans spend this time eating turkey and watching American football with their families. Experience a New England Patriots game at Gillette Stadium in Massachusetts.

Christmas (25 December): Not going home for the winter break? More than 90 percent of Americans celebrate Christmas. Celebrate on the slopes with a ski trip to Utah.

There is so much to do and see in North America, and so many opportunities to do it. Make the most of your North American stay, and book cheap with StudentUniverse.
