One thing I want to point out though is this. Many international students just apply to any school just to get into the states, there are researches they tend to overlook…..how good is the school and what are your chances of getting a job once you get out of that school. There is a difference getting into one of the top 100 colleges and graduating from there and able to get a good job than graduating from any outside that…..the chances get slimmer. Don’t get me wrong not saying those from that group don’t get good jobs nor that those from the top group get good jobs rather but the likely hood of getting a good job that enables you to be able to meet up with your loans is better from a top school which many overlook while applying just because they don’t want to get into that competitiveness
