Applying to Uni in the US

Getting Started

Should you decide to study in the United States, the choice of universities is colossal ranging from eminent universities like Harvard and MIT to unheard of universities like Rockies College. There are many rankings that can help gage a university's reputation and academic excellence. One useful one is compiled by US News & World Report, and can be found here. Another ranking can be found here.

Once you have decided which universities/colleges you wish to apply to, it is useful to visit their website and order a free prospectus (most universities will be more than happy to comply)and visit the International Undergraduate Admissions Page and view the various deadlines, requirements and tuition fees.


If you are thinking of applying to the US you should now read the full in depth guide to applying there. It tells you when to apply, what you need to apply with, how to make your applications and loads of info about how to fund your US study:

Applying to an Australian University

Applying to Australian Higher Education institutions differs from applications to the UK in the fact that there is no centralised system like UCAS. Applications are usually sent directly to the respective institutions, which usually charge application fees between 40-100 Australian Dollars.


Applying to Uni in Canada

One piece of advice: if you are unsure whether you realllyyy want to attend a specific Canadian university, wait to apply until after you have heard from many of your other universities--they generally have significantly later deadlines but costly application fees. However, the applications are also quick to fill out because they focus on grades.
