I'm not really familiar with the education levels you mentioned, but I would suggest that you might want to apply to Baruch College, http://www.baruch.cuny.edu/--the business branch of City University of New York.  Your practical background in IT might be of interest.  I wouldn't worry about your age.  Many students in US colleges and CUNY in particular are a bit older than "college age."  You might well find work in IT in the city.  As to cost, NY is an expensive place to live, but Baruch is relatively inexpensive.  You could live in one of the "outer" boroughs--Queens or Brooklyn--where apartments are a little less expensive and where there are subways to take you into Manhattan.  The neighborhoods of Sunnyside and Woodside in Queens come to mind as possible places to live.  I believe that if you are accepted, CUNY may be able to help with or at least guide you as to how to get a visa.

i want to go to a U.K. university too but i found out they graduate high school at 16. i also heard they pay you to go to college (or to a university) but i think thats for citizens, which means u have to fill out paperwork and stuff. if thats what u want (im not saying its a bad idea cuz i want to do it too) then go ahead! just consider the extras lol

UK universities work on a points system based on A-Level, BTEC, GNVQ, and other qualifications.\n\nO-levels were phased out of UK education in the 1980's.\n\nCheck out www.ucas.ac.uk for the points and course prospectus for each university.

Well, if you live in the US and you want to study in London, you are in luck--London offers the student just about every subject there is!  \n\nI've worked in a US-institution Study Abroad Office for about 3 years, and there are more programs offered in London to fit your needs than any other country.  To start, try looking at www.studyabroad.com to search by country and subject.  History, business, engineering, neuroscience--you can find anything you want.  Some possible programs are AIFS (www.aifs.com), Academic Programs International, Pitt in London, IES, etc.\n\nThe great thing about London is that there is no language barrier for Americans, leaving you free to also do internships.  Programs like Pitt in London (www.abroad.pitt.edu) and American Intercontinental University offer internships designed specially for your interests, ranging from the National History Museum to Parliament to various businesses in the city, giving you a great addition to any resume and another view into your host culture.\n\nI hope this helps!

There are lots of bad English Schools that will take your money and give a bad quality of education. To find a good one, look on the website of 'English UK', an association of English Schools which have received accreditation from The British Council (a UK Government organisation to help people in other countries in their dealings with the UK). The British Council website has some links on the front page explaining all about coming to the UK to study.\n\nFor working in the UK, see the government's 'Working in the UK' website. It explains how to get a 'work permit', how long you can stay, etc. Also, try typing "working in the UK" (in double quotes) into google.

I only know the scholarship scheme to study in Britian. For post grad, its best to try on British Chevening Scholarships. \n\nFollow the link --> http://www.chevening.org\n\nOr, alternatively, you can try British Council websites for a start. \n\nFollow the link --> http://www.britishcouncil.org\n                    http://www.educationuk.org/scholarships/\n\nBig companies do offers scholarships for those subjects under their interest. Look out their websites for more information. \n\nEmbassy websites for any countries are also one of the best source to obtain links for education scholarships in their countries.\n\n-good luck!-

Well, it greatly depends on the country.  First off, its much easyer if you already have a BA.  Second, getting in isn't as hard as surviving once you're here.  I've been at the University of Fribourg in Switzerland for the last year and I'm trying to get into a medical program but since I'm not Swiss and its free, I'm not allowed.  So it even depends on what you want to study (although a university for which you pay to go to its more about the money).  Then of course there's the language.  Unless you're studying science or business at a masters level you'll be expected to follow courses and do assignment/presentation is the home language, unless its an international university that makes a point of doing everything in english.  So theres lots to think about, a good first step is narrowing down your selection of countries and universities, from there I'd check and see how you can survive when you're there, can you work there while you study if you're not getting money from family or private loans? (another heads up, if the university doesnt have a US department of education school code you can't get US financial aid).  Once you've narrowed it down a bit contact the universities international student aid office and ask as many questions as you can think of that you'll need to have answered before you dive in.  Good luck.

The American High School Diploma is NOT normally sufficient as an entry qualification to LSE, however "outstanding applicants" offering this qualification may be invited to take the LSE Entrance Exam (see below). Applicants offering the Advanced Placement (A.P. classes if they have that in your state) level should offer at least two (but preferably three or four) suitable (relevant) subjects with grades of A's or B's. Alternatively, applicants offering the first year of an undergraduate degree from a US university would be eligible to apply and the School (i.e. School of Economics, Anthropoly, Law, etc) would require an overall GPA of 3 to 3.5 or B/B+.\n\nMore conditions may apply, i.e. passing and scoring highly on the entrance exam.

An MBA from an American school is the shiz-nit!  If you have one, some countries, UK for example, will let you skip a whole bunch of red tape with the immigration process.  That American MBA is as good as gold.\n\nGetting an undergrad degree in business from a non-crap school in America has a lot of value also.\n\nIf you're looking at the UK, one thing that you might want to consider is that it's easier for foreigners to get into their best schools because they get to charge triple the tuition and fees.  They're so cheap that, even when tripled and then almost doubled on top of that to make up for the low comparative value of the dollar, they're still competitive with private school prices in the USA.  So if you're not a real bad student, you might want to go ahead and apply to LSE, Manchester, etc.

You need to enquire - initially - about exchange programmes and then take it from there. Get in touch directly with the UK College and Uni' Admissions Service: type in UCAS and press search. Their web pages can link you up to most of the HE institutions in the UK.\n\nOK?\n\n\n:)

If you want a skilled job, the best way would be to go back to university - I'm currently doing an Access to Higher Education course which would be suitable for someone like yourself. It teaches skills such as Communications, Maths and Computing as well as 3 specialist subjects in a wide range of areas. This is the best way for a mature student to get to university as it will help you gain the skills and confidence to study at a UK university. I was working in the retail sector before i started the course, and even working my way up - i only managed a salary of about £14,000
