"Recession, my foot. I have offers and I still have 2 weeks to graduation", says an international student who is pursuing occupational therapy. Everyone in the class had multiple offers by April 2010, one month before graduation.
Some universities in the US offer "Need-Blind" admission to international students. Under this policy, universities will admit students notwithstanding their financial position.
The American Dream (the 3 M's -- Money, Motor and Mansion) is what motivates people to go to USA. However, for me, the ulterior motive was to get a grip on my life, to make my life on my terms and my independence.
The US Government has issued Form DS-160, in replacement of DS-156, DS-157 and DS-158. The Form is a consolidated form and students not longer need to complete multiple forms.
