College Admission Procedures

Compared to other countries, admission procedures of US universities, schools,collages and institutes are highly competitive for international students. The procedure is even more competitive in the top educational institutes. To earn admission in the top and high-ranking schools in USA you must have:
  • Good grades,
  • Adequate financial support either by achieving scholarships or merit based financial aids,
  • Completed challenging coursework, and
  • Good command over the English language.
Apart from the above said qualities, students must be competent enough to fulfill the individual schools' eligibility criteria because most of the US schools follow separate admission guidelines that foreign students have to follow. For the overseas students, a good score in the entrance exam can secure admission in the top US schools and universities. Since the admission for international students is highly competitive and unpredictable in the USA, it is always better to apply for more than one college. Many of the American schools will ask the students for recommendation letters from their past educational organizations for admission. Some schools in the USA admit students on the basis of application essays. So, while applying to the schools, ensure that you write the application essays with best of your writing skills.
