Most U.S. universities expect international students to have
a secondary school diploma or secondary school examination
results that would enable them to attend a university in their
home country. This is particularly true of the most competitive
universities, which look for students with high grades (among
other things). However, remember that there is a wide range
of admission standards and acceptance rates among U.S. universities
and colleges. Since the U.S. system of education places great
emphasis on breadth of knowledge, it is also important that
your secondary school study has included a variety of subjects
such as English, mathematics, natural sciences (physics, chemistry,
and/or biology), humanities or social sciences (history, geography,
economics, politics, or similar subjects), and a foreign language.
Lastly, universities will not usually accept international
students who are younger than age 17.
