For an international perspective, check out St. George's University in Grenada (a Caribbean island). It isn't in the US, but it is accreditted by US, UK and many other countries Medical boards. Nearly all the students are foreign and the facilities are modern. From the feedback I've heard, most doctors who studied there are happy with their education. It's also somewhat cheaper than the US schools and less competitive. http://www.sgu.edu/website/sguwebsite.nsf/index.html

UCLA has the best medical school. I got 2 perfect scores in math and reading, but my writing score was only 720, for a total of 2320. I only read this SAT guide, and that is how I got such high scores: http://www.guideparadise.com/index.php?option=com_guides&task=buy&id=10 I recommend this guide to anyone seeking to get a higher score to get into a first choice college.

Acting school in USA
Acting school in USA?
I am a 18 year old boy. I have all my life been so confused about what i wanted to work as, when i got older. And through High School i've been so lazy, and didn't see any reason to do my homework etc, because I didn't know what I would study when i got older. All my life my friends been telling me that I could be an great actor because of how good I am of taking different roles and imitating people.. but I never took it serious.. But last year I thought thinking a lot about it because I really love acting(even though I never been through acting classes) .. But i can stand in front of the mirror for hours and just playing different roles ( I know I sound crazy as ****) but thats me. The problem is that I live in Denmark, but I really want to go to United States to an Acting School and study as long as it takes, because I want to be acting in movie or TV Shows. I did not think of being an actor just because i was lazy in school. The whole thing of being an actor has always been there, just something I never took serious.. And I think it is the right thing for me, and I hope I am talented enough... Plus I never said I thought it was an easy thing... biggestthingsinceslicedbread > Please do not tell me you're an professional actor, when you're not.

It does sound like you would be good at acting but I wouldn't jump into it. See if you can find some group that puts on plays around your area (around here there are churches that will put on shows as well as small theaters that have open auditions for anyone interested) and try to get a part. Do a play w/ some group and when it's all over then decide if you like it enough to peruse it for a career. As far as colleges, there are plenty of good ones in New York though it will be hard for you to get into a good one since you've been in a different school system and since you don't have acting experience so you may have to settle for a small school at first but if you do well your first year or two you'll be able to transfer to a better college at that point. Good luck!

Whatever you do, please don't be an actor because you were lazy in school. Do it because there is nothing else you would rather do. You need to be an actor. You will get your butt kicked if you come to the states and you want to be an actor because it "seems like fun". It's a lot of work. Being self employed is no walk in the park. On that note, you do sound promising for an actor. Take a few classes, be in a few productions, then see what you want to do with your life. Also, you can think about theatre schools in London. They are well known for good acting too.

If you do go to the U.S. study in either LA or NY. The best schools are there. -Margie Haber Studios in LA has a cool international program. They're also THE BEST for coldreading/auditioning. www.Margiehaber.com -TVI Studios (LA/NY) has a lot of international students come through. Good classes in multiple fields. www.tvistudios.com Other great schools (You can find their sites by using a search engine): -Stella Adler -Howard Fine Studios -Ivanna Chubbuck -Groundlings -Second City -Beverly Hills Playhouse -William Esper Studios -Tom Todoroff -Joanne Baron/D.W. Brown -Playhouse West -Upright Citizen's brigade -Hey, I Saw Your Commercial! -Stuart K. Robinson Questionable Schools -Strasberg Institute-The one in L.A. banks on the great teacher's name, has nothing to do with the Master's teachings, and is a factory for immigrants to get a green card in their year-long programs. Scammy Schools to Avoid (Overpriced and false promises) -John Robert Powers-Banks on the name of a very famous and DEAD agent. They say that Lucille Ball, John Wayne, and many other famous actors went to the school, when NONE of them did! So you see, they use bait and switch tactics. -John Casablancas-The franchises have been known for unethical business practices and really have nothing to do with the founder's original intentions. -Barbizon-It was legit back in the 70s and 80s. Now these franchises have been known for unethical business practices and false promises.

Most universities in the US have theatre programs available. If you've never acted before but want to try, you can take introduction classes in most universities, to see if you want to give it a shot. Acting as a profession is exceptionally difficult to do successfully, and I believe that planning on being an actor without any prior experience is a risky choice in a mean business. I'd first suggest taking a general acting class anywhere. It doesn't need to be at a university, though it may. If you enjoy it and feel like you could continue acting for the rest of your life, then keep taking classes and working on your craft! And audition audition audition. =) As for specific schools, you can go to almost any college and get a general theatre degree. If you want a school with a really great theatre reputation, check out USC, UCLA, NYU, Julliard, Emerson... There's a lot of lists online. Many of these schools require strong academics as well as a resume, so be aware of that. There are also conservatory programs available, such as AMDA (though AMDA's reputation is varied) which focus entirely on performance and don't care about academics. I personally support a university where you can get a decent education (just in case acting doesn't work out), but that's just my opinion.

Use there web site to find out the requirements . You seem to know the rest, the website will give you the information or a contact to get the ball rolling. Don't forget you will need a to get a education visa which may take some time .
2 :
It is not to late to take your SAT's take them when they are offered. After taking the SAT's and getting your results back then start applying colleges in the United States. At most colleges they have on-line application forms or they provide forms for you to print out. They will tell you to mail your high school transcripts in and there is also an application fee which usually ranges from $25 to $50 USD. There are many wonderful colleges to choose from in the United States. Brown University is considered an Ivy League School. You might also try some smaller private colleges that contain really good Business programs, such as, Ashland College and Mount Vernon Nazarene University. There student populations aren't as diverse and they look forward to having foreign students.
