It depends a lot on what you want to study, which country would you prefer to study in and at what level do you want to study at(Masters, Bachelors etc..)\nPlease send me a message with more specifics and I will get in touch with you. I too am an international student studying in the US.

no, thats not possible, no one can go to the US with a tourist visa and study. first of all, what is usually done for foreigners to study in colleges, like as you said, harvard, you would first apply from you country, wait for the response and if you are accepted, you are automatically given a student visa where you can study and work part time. \n\nfrom my view, it sounds pretty unreal in what your friend tells ya, thats no possible, i mean we are in America, if it was that easy, then everyone else would be doing it. \n\nanother possiblily to get a job in the states is to apply for an international job offer, but like 99% they look for people with high degrees and from there you are able to go and work there with a visa a do as you please, study as you like,ecc.\n\nthe last way of living in america Legally, is simply applying for a green card and from then on you are able to study and/or work as one pleases. its a long process.\n\nso just ask your friend next time, 'how on earth is your aunt going to do all this to get in to the us first, the toursit visa doesnt allow you to study or work permanently?

SAT, its a general knowledges test, you need it to apply to any american University. Each Uni. ask for a certain average in your score.\n\nTOEFL, its an english profficiency test, here as well, Unis, ask for a certain ammount of score in this one.\n\norganizations? depending in your grades you can apply for a FULLBRIGHT scholarship.\n\ncheerios,.

The good news:  Your grades and an 800 in math on the SATs are impressive and some very good schools in the US will want you.\n\nThe bad news -- if you have a 1920 on the SATs, then you took the three part SAT exam and averaged 560 on the other two parts.  That won't cut it at the very top schools.  The average student accepted at Ivy League schools, Duke, Stanford, Chicago, Northwestern, MIT and Cal Tech has you beat by 200 to 300 points.  Many might think that these schools may discount your verbal scores since you are a foreign student.  But the fact is that the top schools get lots of applications from Asian students with nearly perfect SAT scores and can't take all of them.\n\nI think that you will get into a very good school.  I think that it is a stretch to get into the schools at the very top -- but it is not impossible.  Your chances will be improved if you indicate that you want to study mathematics or a science.  They will also improve if you are able to take the SAT again and bring up your verbal scores.

I had a lot of the same issues--I go to Dartmouth now.  Still have very bad depression, but that's another issue.  But yes, McGill should understand.  However, you will need a letter verifying these things unfortunately (from your school guidance counselor generally).  McGill presents a whole other issue because I do think Canadian students get preference.  I wish you all the best, honey.  I think you can get in--just make sure you have really good essays and good recommendations.  Just remember, whatever is, is for the best.  Did you take any SAT IIs?  Those scores often count for a lot.  If you have any more questions, just add it to details--I will check later.  Honestly, all the luck in the world to you, I'll be glad to help you in any way I can.

Fact that you got into Varsity tells me that you have the ability to also get your degree!! \nI'd suggest you should start paying your own varsity fees and then you'll see the time your waisting by not studying.\nFact is, Varsity is a jol and everyone knows that. The trick is to study a little every day. Go through the material you've discussed in class every afternoon. That way you'll be halfway there ones exams start.

The first question is, what country do you want to go for your graduate? Your own or a foreign country? If you are "remarkably intelligent," you should be able to figure that out. Usually, people go for "rich, developed countries" like US and UK. After that, find universities that give out financial aid for international students and have your majors or whatever it is you want to study, then try to meet their standards for a foreign student (again, you are intelligent, right?). Aim high, usually private and/or pricier schools have scholarships. When they accept and look at your income, which is low, I guess, they often will give you some kind of financial aid, such as scholarships, loan, in-campus jobs...\n\nGood luck,\n\nA foreign student currently studies in the US

no, you can't get financial aid since you are not an american and do not pay taxes to support american universities.  now, if you already have a degree and are seeking a phd, that changes things.  you can get fully funded by the school for that.  but if you are trying to get a BA/BS from an american school, then you're going to have to pay out of pocket for that or get a loan.  the only other option would be to apply for some sort of scholarship, but you would be at a disadvantage because you aren't an american.  many scholarships are specifically for american students and are based on need or winning some kind of contest, like best essay, etc.

The best thing you have to do first is, first choose(by choose I mean, universities that are affordable to your budget) several universities and then see what are the requirements they are asking(normally those are TOEFL {Test Of English as a Foreign Language}SAT{Scholastic Assessment Test} scores. So do the test and get the score they wanted. Then prepare your financial statements as they wanted. And other things if there are. Once you've selected by the Uni, they will giude you with the procedures.\nAnother thing you can do is, find a local university in (your country) that has affliations with a US Uni. Those Uni's have transfer program i.e you can do like 2 years there and do the rest in US. (If you could find a local UNI, that's the most cost effective.)Or a Local UNI that gives American degrees. Then you can apply to a US UNI wih your local UNI's transcript and you can transfer your credits.\nGood luck with everything

Did you mean?\n\n\nCan anybody help me get into a college in America?\n\n\nHi everybody. I am Alaa from Iraq. I want to have the opportunity to study in an American University majoring in English for the degrees of M.S.D and Ph.D. Does anyone have any information to help me get started? It would be greatly appreciated.\n\n\nCut and paste this and you will get a better answer.\n\nCounselorDan  (10Pts possibly... please)

they need SAT/TOEFL tests because it shows to them how good you know english. Colleges offer ESL exams for free when you apply, and instead of SAT you can take Placement Exam.\nIf you are talking about schools before college, then I've never heard of that.

Studying abroad is always a good thing, it gives you a wider background, apart from looking excellent on your resume.  I would say USA for chemical engineering, see the link below for the best USA Universities.\n\nI would definitely add, to be aware that since the 9/11 aftermath, there have been more background investigations on Student Visa--just be prepared to showcase your entire history when applying for a STUDENT VISA to the USA.\n\nGood Luck and Prosper...;*!*;...

well contact the school you are interested in or have someone there do it and tell u what u need. when i thought about going to school there after i graduated i went to ustc while i was there over the summer and they said i would have to only send a letter stating that i had taken certain courses and then send the enrollment fee. i guess they are so desperate for american students, theyll take us that easy! good luck!
