<p>And if you can,please explain step by step applying to college…In the end i will need just to pack the application form and send to the address given on university website?</p>

<p>You may apply to college early, but it is rare to do so here in the U.S. and I honestly think your chance of acceptance will be much better as a senior, with more life experience. The college application process can be complicated, if not even more so for international students. You may want to start here with the CollegeBoard website, which has a good timeline and a list of application requirements:</p>
