Transfer student from India to USA

Hello everyone,
I’m a 1st year student in an Indian university and wish to transfer from India to USA in my second year. So, how do I apply? What tests should I take? What time should I start applying? and most important of all, what grades should I score in my 1st year at university in order to secure a place at a American university?
I would also like to know the acceptance rate of Indian transfer students at American universities.
Thank you!!

  1. You need to look at specific US universities for test requirements, application deadlines, credit requirements and GPA needed.
  2. Many US universities will only accept Junior level (3rd year) transfers and usually these schools will not ask for SAT/ACT scores.

There is no general rule for all US schools, so you need to identify specific universities and start your research there. Are you in-need of financial aid? Just so you know, as an International applicant there is very little FA available as a Freshman, but even less as a transfer.
