The chances of you being admitted to Harvard are basically zero. Harvard is probably the most famous university in the world. The entering class is about 1200 students, and there are over 20,000 applications from the best students in America, and many thousands from the very best students in the world. Unless you are one of the best students in the Eastern Hemsiphere, you have literally NO chance of being admitted. On the other hand, there are 4000 college campuses in the USA and there are over 500,000 international students in the USA. So if you want to study inthe USA, you will be able to do so. However, it will cost a lot of money. Americans are welathy and so the prices are high. Most colleges are not supported by the government, so the fees are very high. A typical college student pays at least $20,000 US and often $45,000 US each year to attend classes and live on campus. This does not include living expenses in the vacation months. Almost every American college has a website that tells all the details of the college. To find the names of colleges go to the websites of the Princeton Review, or collegeboard.com. Good luck,
