The "best" college for you is the one that best suits your specific, individual needs and preferences.  How do you know which college is the best?\n\nKeep in mind that the "best college" or "best university" for you is one that will maximize your learning potential and knowledge. When deciding which institutions you should apply to, create your own student-centered ranking system. In your personal college ranking system, account for your educational goals and career objectives; the college’s entrance requirements, degree and course offerings, and reputation in the field in which you will earn a degree; transferability of credit; your learning style and preferences; the college’s teacher-student ratios; the campus location, environment and housing options; the availability of student support services on campus (medical services, tutoring, wellness programs); and, finally, the cost (after financial aid is applied). \n\nIn the end, what's going to matter is whether (a) you actually have or will have a degree at the point of admissions to law school and (b) how you rated in the admissions pool.   The issue of  WHERE you earned your undergraduate degree will only be important  IF you intent to pursue a law degree from the same school where you earned your undergraduate degree.\n\nBest of luck!

Well, an international high school that is US accredited would be able to guide your class choices so you don't have to take so many "make-up" classes.  I would say that it would also help with your English, but your English is excellent.\n\nThe most important thing is that the guidance counsellor would be familiar with the US colleges, and helping students get into them.  And many of your classmates may be US-college-bound (and have older siblings who have gone to college in the US), so they can give you advice and help.\n\nThe absolute best situation is to spend your last year of high school *in* a high school near the college you want to go to.  You could take night classes from the college even in high school.  And colleges often have a discount tuition for "resident" students -- that means students who have been living in the state for xx months.  You could do this as a foreign exchange student either your last year, or after you finish your high school.\n\nIt depends very much on the college you want to go to, though.  You should contact their admissions office, and find out the details.

Morristown is a nice place, but I would check with some people who have direct contact or expereince with the University,  I generally like the feel of smaller liberal arts schools myself, and find that some of the best and healthiest student-teacher-school relationships are found there.  Not saying anything bad about big-box schools, it is all about what is best for you. Oh, and please for the sake of your future don't for a second take anything in US News and World Report's "college rankings".  Those rankings are compiled with one thing in mind only, making USN&WR money, not trying to help you find the right place for you.

Surly there are tons of schools accepting students from all over, however, there are restrictions.\n\nFor example, you need to have a bank statement indicating that you can afford to live in the US for a year.  Which will have to include your tuition, books, living expenses and etc.  The amt is different depending on school.  \n\nSince you mentioned that you cannot afford the expensive tuition, you need a sponsor.  Are your grades good enough to apply for scholarship in China?  If not, you need an American family/company who's willing to sponsor you.\n\nOtherwise, I am not sure how you can come here.\n\nI hope that this is helpful to you.

Ohh, i was actually considering that in high school, some guys from it came to talk to my AP physics class last year to get us to enroll.  I really like physics, but wasnt sure of a stable career in it so that program was kind of appealing.  If it's the Nuclear Power Program that they came to talk to us about, basically you control the nuclear reactors on submarines, so yes, you have to go out to sea a lot, but you won't really be in direct battle, you'll be working with the nuclear power that makes the sub work while the other people on the sub shoot missles at things.  You'll travel a lot to other countries and stuff.  They pay for your college, and you can go anywhere you want that you get accepted to, then you go to their college, i forget where to get the nuclear power training for a year.  Personally, I decided not to do it because you are always traveling and in strange places.  It would be nice to see the world, but it would be impossible to settle down because you are gone for weeks and weeks at a time and only get to be home a few days before you depart again.  That's all I know about it, good luck.

If there's not a University nearby, research possible colleges and travel.  You'll be happy you did!\n\nOr, go to your local college and join the National Student Exchange and go an option of many schools around the US, Us Virgin Islands, Guam, Puerto Rico and Canada!

I lived in Davis for about 2 years and graduated from there. I also have several friends that go there and have graduated from there.  It's a wonderful place to go to school.  The environment and community is relatively small.  Everyone that lives there is very education focused.  This made it very easy for me to concentrate on my studies.  If its only 1.5 hours away from your home, I would definitely choose Davis.  Think about your family and friends as well.  If there's an emergency, you would want to be home as soon as possible.  Hope this helps.  I'm sure whatever school you decide to go to, you'll be very successful.  Take Care

What and where is KANSAS ??\n\nARIZONA seems to be one of the fastest-growing places anymore.  Cost of living is less, although not a whole lot less (I'm told) than CALIFORNIA.  Nice weather and LOTS OF JOBS, I think.\n\nIf your family's there, I would go home and take a breather.\nAlso, if your parents are getting older, it would a VERY GOOD IDEA TO SPEND TIME WITH THEM BEFORE THEY GET MUCH OLDER -- you won't EVER REGRET THAT DECISION !!

It depends where you are from and what you want to do. In general terms, the US is the best place for opportunities without question. The US system of higher education have worked very well for hundreds of years and research is striving in both public and private institutions. I am sure Australia is cheaper, however, there are many options in the US that can help you obtain excellent education for good price. There are universities in some States like Utah that don't charge much. You can also start your first couple years in a reputable community college and then transfer to a university afterwards. Always choose the Community College close to the university where you want to go and call the admission in that university to ask about their experience with that community college.\nI don't want to fill you up with alot of info but I just want to highlight the many opportunities there are to study in the US for less money. With hard work you will succeed regardless of the place you choose.\nGood luck :)

I would recommend American University because my cousin is going there and she loves it and she is studying Arobic (Egyptian) studies and she is in Cairo, Egypt. It is a little expensive. But if you are willing to go to a good school then I guess I would pay it. Good Luck!

A top (if not THE top) journalism school: University of Missouri-Colombia\n\n\nGo to collegeboard.com to get information on averages at every  university or college. \nAs far as recommendations on other schools to consider: it depends on what field you want to go to? And do you want to go to an Ivy League school, a private school, or a state school? Ivy League schools are not always the best, it depends on your major. Do your research.\n\nHere is info on Yale (from collegeboard.com):\n\nAdmission requirements:\n\n    * Essay(s) required\n    * SAT Reasoning and SAT Subject or ACT Required (ACT writing optional)\n\nVery important admission factors:\n\n    * Character/Personal Qualities\n    * Class Rank\n    * Application Essay\n    * Extracurricular Activities\n    * Recommendations\n    * Rigor of secondary school record\n    * Standardized Test Scores\n    * Talent/Ability\n    * Academic GPA\n\nConsidered:\n\n    * Alumni Relation\n    * Geographical Residence\n    * Interview\n    * Racial/Ethnic Status\n    * State Residency\n    * Volunteer Work\n    * Work Experience\n    * First generation college student\n\n\nSAT (the old one) Reasoning Verbal: 700 - 790 96%\nSAT (the old one) Reasoning Math: 700 - 790 96%\nACT Composite: 31 - 34 22%\n*700-790 equivalent to about 2200-2400 on the new SAT\n\n\nStudent Body\n1st-year students:\n\n    * 7% In-state students\n    * 93% Out-of-state students\n\n    * 49% Women\n    * 51% Men\n\n    * 1% American Indian/Alaskan Native\n    * 14% Asian/Pacific Islander\n    * 9% Black/Non-Hispanic\n    * 8% Hispanic\n    * 48% White/Non-Hispanic\n    * 7% Non-Resident Alien\n    * 12% Race/ethnicity unreported\n\n    * 95% in top 10th of graduating class\n    * 99% in top quarter of graduating class\n    * 100% in top half of graduating class

It really depends on what school you want to go to and where. The best school in my state is selective and accepts those only with a 3.5 or higher. You will have to look at each individual school and see what their standards are. Applying never hurts!
