<p>I would need to improve my overall TOEFL scores and especially my speaking skills that was low when I passed the test 2 years ago.</p>
<p>this should be a piece of cake, as 1] you have been in the US, speaking english for 2 years, and 2] you have taken classes that are harder than those you took 2 years ago, yes? </p>
<p>however
“Considering that I am an international without financial aid, it makes me fairly interesting for school”</p>
<p>“Interesting” is not the word I would use, as being international AND needing FA does not make you someone colleges are anxious to admit. Especially Public U’s like Michigan, which are not generous to international students. You need to find colleges that DO offer FA to international students first, and then see if their programs are of interest to you. Otherwise, you app is likely to be rejected without so much as a second look.</p>
