Do international students need to take SAT test to study in the US?

Question

hi im from canada and i graduated from high school. i was wondering if i needed to take an SAT test to study in the US or if they accepted our Provincial exam tests?

Answer 1

I never took the SAT, and I'm in college.  I think it depends on where you plan on going.  Just contact the university that you hope to attend and ask.

Answer 2

To be accepted into a U.S. undergraduate program you must have three things:

1) A Student Visa - This allows international students to travel to the US to study. You can find useful information here - http://educationusa.state.gov/usvisa.htm

2)  SAT scores - This is a standardized test that all colleges require for admissions. You can find more information and register here - http://www.collegeboard.com/about/associ...

3) TOEFL scores - This test allows international students to study in the US. You can learn more and register here -
