What are the best int'l colleges for american students

<p>I'm a junior in high school, and I'm mildly interested in going to college abroad. Does anybody know of colleges in Europe (ie UK/Ireland) that actually accepts American students. Maybe a quick bio would help.</p>

<p>I have a 3.6 grade average (damn precal)
attend private school
Softball (1 year)
Drama (3 years in counting)
Over 42 hours of service hours
Went to French Summercamp
I've been to Japan
I've been to Europe
both on study abroad programs
I've had two jobs</p>

<p>what do you plan to major in college?</p>

<p>Most of the UK universities love U.S. students because they have to pay full tuition. St. Andrew's is probably best known for accepting large numbers of students from the States, but Edinburgh, Oxbridge, and most of the others accept them as well. </p>

<p>They do have very different admissions criteria over there, though. They care far more about subject tests (AP, IB, SAT II) than about GPA or extracurricular stuff.</p>

<p>Cultural Anthropology</p>

<p>What's the best SAT II (if i take one) for said colleges
As for AP's I'm already in AP Envi Sci
and plan to take at least two more next year</p>

<p>Second St. Andrews, it gets a lot of American private school kids who sound a lot like you. Edinburgh is a little stronger academically though and of course Oxbridge strongest.</p>
