<p>Hi, not sure if this is in right area of website.
But I was just wondering if you have any information about applying to US universities from England?
I'm currently finishing my first year at college doing A Levels (aged from 16-18) and would love to know about the application process.
Ive been looking at NYU and Californian universities but am open to a lot- looking to study in English/ writing/ history or art- undecided as to which yet.
I'm a competent student who gets A-A* grades- did in High School and am predicted to in college.</p>

<p>Also I'd love info on how much universities there REALLY cost and how much the cost of living is- halls of residence etc.</p>

<p>The pricing of UK universities has recently trippled to almost £10,000 per year which is why I am now more open to studying abroad for a more expansive education at similar prices.</p>

<p>Any help would be appreciated as I really am coming at this from an outsider's perspective!!</p>

<p>Search for that on each college’s site. You should be doing that on your own.</p>

<p>

If you’re looking at NYU, then you should remain in the UK.</p>

<p>For NYU’s College of Arts and Science (Undergraduate), fall/spring tuition
Full time students, tuition, 12 to 18 units flat rate, per term = US$19,672.00 = GBP 12,089

<p>And that’s just for one term.</p>

<p>Universities in the US cost anything from $25000-$60000/yr.If you are a tippy top student you may be ableto secure scholarships and financial aid from a few thousand to those that cover the full cost of attendance,ie tuition,room,board and books.As for the application process,you will need to apply the year that you write your final A level exams.You will also need to register and write the SAT test,[College</a> Admissions - SAT - University & College Search Tool](<a href=“http://www.collegeboard.org%5DCollege”>http://www.collegeboard.org).For now,make a list of criteria that meet that criteria(e.g location,major,availability of financial aid+scholarships)You may be interested to explore the liberal arts colleges,such as [Williams</a> College : Williams College](<a href=“http://www.williams.edu%5DWilliams”>http://www.williams.edu) or [Hamilton</a> College: A national leader in teaching students to write effectively, learn from each other and think for themselves.](<a href=“http://www.hamilton.edu%5DHamilton”>http://www.hamilton.edu) amongst many others,of course these are just examples.good luck.</p>
