<p>Hi girls and guys! I have question: being from Kazakhstan advantage or disadvantage?</p>
<p>Neither. Are you an international student? Applying from there?</p>
<p>Like born says, if you are applying without the benefit of a US green card or citizenship, you’ll be in the much more difficult international pool.</p>
<p>Yes I international student applying from my country</p>
<p>Some US colleges actively desire international students, especially those who can pay full tuition.</p>
<p>At more competitive colleges (and especially at those who provide good Financial aid to internationals), the competition is extremely fierce.</p>
<p>So it all depends on what sort of college you are targeting and if you can be a full pay student or not.</p>
