Description
The down-to-earth and often hilarious reviews could only have been written by British students interviewing other students - one even couch-surfing and crisscrossing the US by Greyhound bus, talking to students at universities around the country, and writing spot-on reviews as he went. Uni in the USA takes readers through the application process, step by step, and gives insider info on getting in, scholarships, fellow students, best dormitories and campus bars, life on campus and off. In short, what it's really like to be there. Who is this book for? The media is full of recommendations for students to choose the US but they and their parents typically don't know how to go about it. This book answers all their questions - accurately, impartially and wittily. It is the authoritative resource for anyone - student, parent, teacher - considering uni in the USA.
