Choosing universities from thousands of miles away presents some challenges —
especially when there are so many outstanding universities to choose from in the
United States. However, careful planning and advance research will help you come
up with a manageable short list of institutions that match your needs. Every
student is different, and it is very important to consider the factors that are
important to you in both your education and your lifestyle.
This section will give you some ideas on where to get further help and
information and on what academic and lifestyle factors to consider in developing
a short list of universities. Finding the right academic and personal match
requires careful planning, research, and networking on your part. No special
formula or answer applies to everyone. You should begin the process of
reflection and research 12 to 18 months before you wish to start studying in the
United States.
