With a population of nearly 331 million people, and spanning six time zones, America is the world’s third largest country (excluding Antarctica). It is composed of 50 states, one federal district, and five major self-governing territories. Bordered by Mexico and Canada, United States of America covers 3.8 million square miles, which makes it only slightly smaller than the entire continent of Europe. Consistently named as one of the world’s richest countries, the United States offers many opportunities for international students.
Due to its vast land mass, the terrain and climate are both varied. You will find beautiful sandy beaches, rugged snowy mountains, hot barren deserts, and modern metropolitan cities. There are higher education institutions across the country, meaning that you will be able to study in the perfect environment for you. The US is a leading political, cultural, and scientific force internationally, and has been at the forefront of many modern discoveries and developments.
Language
The US does not have an official language, but its national language is English. However, due to the diverse nature of the USA, you will hear a wide range of other languages being spoken.
Courses at American universities are taught in English. It is likely that you will be required to provide evidence of your English language proficiency as part of your application. The level of language proficiency will depend on where you choose to study. If you do not meet the required standards for your course, it is common for institutions to offer English language courses to help you improve.
If your native language is not English, you should make the most of your opportunity to learn a language as you study. Communicating with locals and other students is the perfect way to practice. Having advanced ability in English is a great skill to add to your CV/resume.
Study in United States of America
The United States of America, also known as the USA, the US or America, is one of the most popular destinations for international students. The US has one of the largest education systems in the world. This makes it a powerhouse of international education and research. From Hollywood to some of the world’s most prominent technology companies, the country’s influence is seen and felt globally.
Why Study in United States of America?
With around 4,500 higher education institutions, all providing world-class degree programs, it is no wonder that just over 1.1 million international students choose the US as their study destination each year. Higher education is delivered in institutions referred to as colleges, which are split into two main types. Public colleges are state-funded, have lower tuition fees and a larger capacity for students. Private colleges are funded by donations, tuition fees and grants, meaning that they have higher tuition fees, but fewer students.
Many of the colleges or universities in the US are leaders in numerous ranking tables. This means that a qualification earned at a US institution will be highly regarded by employers worldwide. In the 2019 QS World University rankings, the US has 5 institutions in the top 10. It also occupies 33 spots in the top 100. The highest ranked university is the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), which takes first place. It is followed by Stanford University and Harvard University in second and third place, respectively.
Cost of studying and living in United States of America
The currency used in the US is the United States Dollar (USD/$).
Due to its popularity as an international study destination, America is among the most expensive countries for international students. However, you will be receiving high quality education from world renowned institutions. Depending on your course of study or degree program, you can expect to pay between $5,000 and $60,000 per academic year. The average annual tuition fees are around $30,000 for international students, with a postgraduate degree costing more than an undergraduate degree.
Your cost of living will be highly dependent on the area in which you choose to study. If you choose to live in a big city such as New York City or Los Angeles, this will cost more than a smaller city or town. You should budget between $1,000 and $5,000 per month. This should cover your rent and utilities, groceries, travel, and any additional study expenses.
Although the US is known for its higher tuition fees, international students also have access to financial help. Some universities might offer scholarships to cover your entire course costs or contribute to overall costs. These scholarships are normally awarded for academic or sport excellence, as well as lower income families. If you cannot get a scholarship, you may be eligible for financial aid.
As well as tuition fees and living costs, you should be aware that you need to purchase health insurance for the duration of your studies in America. There is no national health provider, as the health system is private. If you do not have health insurance, any medical attention you might require will be extremely expensive. Your institution will be able to provide you with more information about this.
Visa
Any international student wishing to study in the USA will be required to obtain a student visa. This will be an F-1 or M-1 visa, depending on the type of institution you will be studying at. If you wish to study at a university or academic institution, you will need to obtain an F-1 visa. If you wish to study a course that is not principally academic, or is offered at a vocational institution, such as a business school, you will need to obtain an M-1 visa. You will need to have been accepted by an approved institution before you are able to apply for a visa. You will then need to register with the Student and Exchange Visitor Information System (SEVIS). As part of the visa application process, you will need to make an appointment for an interview at the US Embassy or Consulate in your country.
For information about the location of the US Embassy or Consulate in your country, as well as more detailed information about student visas, please visit the US Embassy website.
Each person has a different case; therefore, requirements and processes vary for everyone. You are recommended to visit our office for more information or write to us inquiry@gminternational.com.pk
