This week,We talk about the application process for American colleges and universities.This is Part Eight in our Foreign Student Series.Earlier,we explained how to begin a search for schools by going to one of the American educational advising centers around the world.We also discussed the rules for entering in the United States. 71
But if your goal is to come to the United States to study,then it is time to make a list of colleges of universities that interest you. 72 Directors of foreign student admissions say students should apply to at least three schools.
Some students want to attend a small college.Others want to go to a big university.That university in Columbus.Ohio,in the Midwest,has almost fifty-two thousand students.There are students this year from around one hundred fifty countries.Ohio State provides international students with an application on its Web site. 73 Or you can print the forms and mail them with the payment.
Many colleges and universities have their applications and also their catalogs online.You should start on your applications at least two years before you want to begin studies. 74 But answering all the questions is not enough.Another important step is taking admissions tests.The SAT is the college entry test that American high school students most commonly take. 75 Colleges and universities may also require international students to take the TOEFL—the Test of English as a Foreign Language.
A.Completing a college application can take some time. |
B.You can pay the application charge online with a credit card. |
C.Another one is the ACT. |
D.If a really big university appeals to you,then there aye ones like Ohio State. |
F.And we talked about programs that can be completed online.
G.If you have a general question for our Foreign Student Series,write to special@voanews.com.

A
Linda Evans was my best friend -like the sister I never had. We did everything together: piano lessons, movies, swimming, and horseback riding.
When I was 13, my family moved away. Linda and I kept in touch through letters, and we saw each other on special time -like my wedding and Linda’s. Soon we were busy with children and moving to new homes, and we wrote less often. One day a card that I sent came back, stamped “Address Unknown”. I had no idea how to find Linda.
Over the years, I missed Linda very much, I wanted to share stories of my children and then grandchildren. And I needed to share my sadness when my brother and then mother died. There was an empty place in my heart that only a friend like Linda could fill.
One day I was reading a newspaper when I noticed a photo of a young woman who looked a lot like Linda and whose last name was Wagman- Linda’s married name. “There must be thousands of Wagmans,” I thought, but I still wrote to her.
She called as soon as she got my letter. “Mrs. Tobin!” she said excitedly, “Linda Evans Wagman is my mother.”
Minutes later I heard a voice that I knew very much, even after 40 years, laughed and cried and caught up on each other’s lives. Now the empty place in my heart is filled, and there’s one thing that Linda and I know for sure: we won’t lose each other again!

A research business carried out the study for the National Retail Federation. It asked more than 8,000 Americans about their back-to-school needs and shopping and spending plans.
