Just curious. What American schools are very well known internationally? Specifically, in Asia such as China/South Korea?
It’s easy to find information about which schools are well known around the world. Just think of the schools that you know of if you are international. They are either well known or you personally know someone who attended a school that’s not so well known. Its more important to chose a school that has something that you want to study very much.
In India Stanford, Harvard and MIT are the most well known.
University of Illinois had /has the largest amount of Asian students at some point. They have offices in Asia to recruit students etc.
US News rankings are followed closely there. To my knowledge, their followings tend to be more on national universities, less on liberal arts schools.
In Singapore, it’s HPYSM, maybe Johns Hopkins, Duke and Cal too
