10 Steps To Getting Into A Top US University 

Think about your dream school -  There are plenty of great universities in the US, so it’s not difficult to find one that will suit your unique goals and aligns with the location and type of education you’d like. 

Do your homework -  Every future college student has that one dream school in mind, but as the old saying goes, dreams don’t work unless you do! Now is the time to put in the research. 

Find a mentor -  Once you’ve narrowed down the schools you’d like to attend, find someone who has some experience with the US college application process. 

Work on your extracurricular  activities -  Extracurricular activities are a great way to prove that you’re the type of well-rounded individual schools are looking for. 

Learn the requirements -  The next thing you need to do is contact each school’s admissions office and learn more about their admission process and what they’d require. 

Gather your paperwork -  In addition to any entrance exams, the admissions office of your chosen school will require some key documents. 

Brush up on your English -  In order to attend a university in the US, you need to have reached a certain level of English. 

Send in your application -  Once you’re up to speed on all the requirements, you’ve taken your exam, and you've requested an application form, it’s time to fill it out and send it in. 

Start early -  Figure out the application deadline early and try to send it in well before. It would be a shame to miss your chance just because the mail was delayed that week! 

Visas and other paperwork -  While your student visa might not require you to have health insurance, it’s very likely that your school will, so don’t neglect this information.
