Is there any University in USA who does not require TOEFL score to send I-20?

I hope not. I've already had too many TA's who barely speak english, and they supposedly passed that test.

Hi again, hope you don't mind. :) If you buy a college handbook, it will tell you which colleges need SATs, also, each one will say so on their website. There are also many websites (like collegeboard.com) that will give you stats and requirements of colleges. I believe there are a few innovative colleges out there that do NOT require SATs, but may require extra graded highschool essays, SAT IIs, or other information instead. \n\nThis site: http://www.collegenews.org/x5202.xml gives a list of colleges that have made SATs optional for admission. I hope it helps.\n\n"January, 2006- Drew University and Lawrence University recently joined a growing list of liberal arts colleges that have made the submission of standardized test scores optional.  According to the National Center for Fair and Open Testing, about a quarter of all colleges nationwide no longer require standardized tests.  Is it possible that standardized tests -- criticized for cultural bias and for favoring students who can afford to pay for expensive test preparation courses -- may become increasingly less relevant to the admissions process, even at very selective colleges and universities?"(From website)

There is no law that prohibits you from applying to universities, however it may be better if you just apply as a permanent resident once you reach the US since you will be eligible for financial aid consideration. If you apply as an international student, that would mean that you would need to apply for an F-1 visa and that is not your case. Contact the international students counselor at the university of your choice and ask her/him what would be the best route for you. They will be in a better position to point you in the right direction. Good luck!

You need to give the TOEFL.\nSAT is required for UG students, but I guess that doesnt apply to you.

It depends on what country you are coming from.\n\nAs an American when I studied in Canada I only needed my acceptance letter from the University and proof that I could support myself inorder to get my Student Visa.\n\nYou'll have to talk to whatever school you are interested in attending to make sure they dont have any additional requirements like TOFEL (I think thats what it is called) scores for students coming from non-English language countries.

GRE is a exam for admission tests at masters level in universities for engineering etc. GMAT is for masters degrees in business programs, TOEFL is required by many schools in US from foreign students for their English competency. You have to contact a University here, send your educational records, the university will tell you what test to take for admission in their program. You take the test there in India, for location and fees find that out locally or the US university will help you too. Get an Indian passport from there. Apply at the US embassy there for Student visa. Take the I-20, the admission approval papers from US university to US Embassy there to apply for the student visa. To prepare for the TOEFL and other exams buy the books and tapes/Cd's etc. to prepare. Good luck

I guess what you meant was that you have 15 yrs of education instead of a 16 yr educational requirement for almost all the Universities in US. Here's my explantion:\nFirstly, United States has several thousand universities. While most of them are quite particular about their admission guideliness such as 16 yr's of educational requirements ( especially from intl. stud's), some universities are pretty flexible and they might intake students with 15 yr's of education such as you. However, they might ask you to register for additional courses once admitted so as to compensate for the 16 yr educational requirement.\nSecondly, you can attain any university level of Education for one year in your home country and that will be counted towards your 16th year. \n\nTip: Find and meet educational consultants in your city who specialize in study abroad consulting..You should be able to find them in your local english newspapers or google it up.

there r no as such free Intl universities in US. but if u wish to pursue doctoral studies, nd meet the uni`s requirements, most of them offer funding, stipends, tution waivers and health insurance coverage. so in a way it becomes free. also, if u have been an exceptional student, u may be covered by full scholarship, either from ur country or from the US.

Possibly.  You should check whatever University you are applying to's admission requirements.  Even if it does count as in the US, you have to have certain requirements for certain graduate programs.  Check with an admissions counselor at the school you wish to apply.
