Choosing universities from thousands of miles away presents some
challenges — especially when there are so many outstanding
universities to choose from in the United States. However, careful
planning and advance research will help you come up with a
manageable short list of institutions that match your needs. Every
student is different, and it is very important to consider the
factors that are important to you in both your education and your
lifestyle.
This section will give you some ideas on where to get further help
and information and on what academic and lifestyle factors to
consider in developing a short list of universities. Finding the
right academic and personal match requires careful planning,
research, and networking on your part. No special formula or answer
applies to everyone. You should begin the process of reflection and
research 12 to 18 months before you wish to start studying in the
United States. |
