Do You Have the Same Questions About Studying in the USA?

"How can I apply?" "Can I get a scholarship?" "Do I need a TOEFL?"

Do these questions sound familiar? There is a reason these are some of the most commonly asked questions – they are about very important factors! It is good to be thinking about admission requirements, finances and applying. I receive many questions via Facebook, here, and email. Maybe these will help you too!

Question: how doing for get an admission for year 2012/2013?

Answer: Hi! Thank you for your question. I would focus on getting admission for the 2013/2014 school year instead. The 2012 school year just began and it takes about nine months to complete the admissions and visa process, so it is probably not possible this school year. Furthermore, I would highly recommend starting at the beginning of a school year (Fall) because many students, including Americans, are new. You are more likely to make friends at this time. This article about applying to U.S. schools is really useful. Good luck!

Answer: Hi! The cost really depends on the school you choose to attend. For example, a state school like the University of Central Florida is going to be less expensive than a private university. A community college, which offers two-year degrees and transfer degrees, will cost less than both. Read this article to get a general idea of cost.
