Overview
For students applying to U.S. universities, picking out exactly what they need to know from the abundance of information available on the Internet becomes a time-consuming and difficult task. Study in America: The Definitive Guide for Aspiring Students is an authoritative and comprehensive handbook, that makes this task simple by addressing the specific needs of students aspiring to go to the USA for higher studies. It provides step-by-step advice on the application process, the tests required, choosing universities, writing application essays, and obtaining financial aid. It also guides students through the all-important process of obtaining a U.S. visa. Sensitive to the specific needs of international students, this book explains the unique vocabulary that one comes across in U.S. campuses, and shares information, anecdotes, and real-life examples to ease the transition from one culture to another. Study in America will serve as a one-point reference guide for students, right from the planning stage to adjusting in the environment of the U.S. universities.
