    Community colleges are not just for students who did not get accepted to 4- year universities. Many students prefer a community college for their first 2 years because they are cheaper, provide excellent education, and are usually located close to their home. After completing the 2 year program, most universities like to accept students who did well at community college because they have proven they are good students. Transferring to a 4-year university for the final 2 years is usually much easier at that point

    • @freakyunderdog
      @freakyunderdog Год назад +2

      I disagree with you, it's the complete opposite;
      transferring from a 2-year community college to a 4-year university requires very good academic performance, plus you still need financial aid to pay for that university that accepted you, which is very rare in the case of a transfer student; meaning, you'll have to pay a huge amount of the tuition if not all of it, which is very disadvantageous to international students.

    Pro Tip: If you are a student from Europe, STAY THERE!! The universities in the EU are just as good (if not better), and they cost 3x less! Not to mention that admission in Europe is so much more Democratic that what we have in the US.

    • @jean-baptistesay6941
      @jean-baptistesay6941 6 лет назад +77

      dodie trash there are less than 5 excellent universities in all of Europe, while there are more than 30 in just the US. Plus, that doesnt even mention the fact that employment is much easier with an American degree in any country, aside from the fact that it would be easier to find a great job in the US.

    • @sarahstone2549
      @sarahstone2549 6 лет назад +17

      Is your instruction primarily in English? If so, you may not need to go through the TOEFL etc. and will be considered an American as an applicant. If you're on a military base or daughter of a diplomat etc. you're also likely treated the same as an American applicant.

    Hey Brooke! Would you please help international students like us by making videos on how we can get the best colleges in US and what attributes we need to show to get into an Elite College with maximum financial AID? Because students like us definitely need Financial scholarship AIDs in order to study in US colleges. Please do make a video on a list of colleges that gives the maximum financial scholarships for international undergrad students and a list of colleges that certainly are easier for students like us to get in with the maximum AID. Also, how we can get these AIDs and what should be our SAT, SAT subject test scores in order to get the scholarship are also important factors for us to know.

      Not usually. Every college is different and most significant scholarships are distributed by colleges themselves. Sometimes a score is a qualifying factor (At USC for example) but then you also have to go through a process including other evaluation points.

Some of my classes will transfer full credit, some will transfer as "electives" (usually the lower level classes, like College Algebra or Freshman Comp), and some won't have any equivalent and I get zero credit:(

    ADVICE NEEDED So I have done a lot of community service, organized a city-wide community project, was part of a national Camp MUN organizers team, and coached a televised MUN in my city. As far as curriculars go, I am pretty good at photography/video editing, but I don't have any achievements in that area. I also wrote an essay on human rights that was in top ten in my country. And then a lot of regional (state-level) academic contests in various areas, where I got 1-2-3rd. I was also a USDOS sponsored exchange student, but I got a 3 on AP Calc and a 2 on AP Comp, which are not great. My American hs wasn't very competitive. Got 1300 on my SAT, plan on retaking that. Should I even try? I know my parents won't be able to pay for my education if I get in. So idk what to do now. Should go to a community college or something first?

    Respected supertutortv administration,
    I am Saiham from Bangladesh who shall appear for the ACT exam on October 27th 2018.
    I have come across your RUclips channel and have found it really helpful. I would therefore like to enroll myself for The Best ACT Prep Course Ever.
    However, I would like to enroll myself for 3 months instead of the 6 months package on the website since my exam is on next month.
    Do you have any 3 month course or 3 month access to The Best ACT Prep Course Ever. If yes, what would be the price.
    Thank you so much for your time.
    Best regards,
    M Saiham Hossain
    Dhaka, Bangladesh

    Hi,
    Thank you for making video about U S College system. I am an International student, I learn a lot from you. I have a question that "Is early high school graduate good or bad? Or What's are some pros and cons for early high school graduation.

    • @2NE1972000
      @2NE1972000 6 лет назад

      Pros are that you can move on earlier. Cons are you might be missing activities that better your "soft" skills or unstable on your foundational core knowledge

    One question: what if in my country there's only 3 years of high school? What do I put on 9th grade on the common app, the info of my last year of secondary school? Or do I not even mention it?
    Thanks

    • @2NE1972000
      @2NE1972000 6 лет назад +6

      Some schools do, some don't. But I recommend you should also include 9th grade.

      Hi, We have the same system in my country, and as someone who already got into college. You just have to indicate that you went to two schools from 9th to 12th grade, just put the information of both schools and in the box asking for a reason for transferring say something like" the schooling system in my country considers 9th grade as part of middle school and 10th-12th grade as parts of high school, the school mentioned above was my *insert type of respective school (middle or high)* school"

      You’re still considered a domestic applicant. However, if you’re not a citizen or have a green card, you’re international regardless of where you live

  • @JustinBrandt
    @JustinBrandt 6 лет назад +2

    Thanks for this, it really cleared up some things!
    What I am still not clear on:
    What do I do when I come from a school (and country for that matter) which doesn't offer the ACTs and SATs or IB and AP courses? We only have our own national exam (which is based on the H/IGCSE system). Do US universities accept these? Do I have to take the SAT/ACT? If so, how do I do that?

    • @ibie9955
      @ibie9955 6 лет назад +1

      Justin Brandt If you want to be accepted to a top us university you must take the SAT/ACT, even if you have to travel to a neighbouring country to find a center. However if you are not picky on the ranks of the colleges then you don't really have to take the SAT or ACT.

    • @_prettygirllana

      What ibie 99 said. SAT vacation. Or you could go to an American community college or lower ranked "test optional" college but finding the latter would take some work.
