  1. Email or write directly to the universities that you are interested in and ask them.  Each university probably has slightly different requirements.  Attending a high school in the USA helps.  I noticed the Olympian athlete from Zimbabwe did her training in an American university.  There was a five minute interview of how she did it on TV last night.  I've worked with kids from Africa and helped get them into good universities but they were in high school.  One of my students from Nigeria got into Princeton University.

    If there is any way your parents can afford it you need to transfer to an American high school as soon as possible.


  2. I am assuming you are think if undergraduate course i.e. bachelors degree. If you are in high school most universities will accept you subject to you taking TOEFL (Test of English as a Foreign Language). You can either do it there or you can do in the US, the cost is standard.

    To get your admission, you will be required to show you financial support. This differ from school to school

    if you thinking of  joining a high school this should not be  big deal since you can join in the class relative to your age. To get admission you will need to be here so you will need to be sponsored by someone who has the legal status.

    Only in America can you pursue your dream to be whatver you want to be.

  3. Yes, I agree. Contact the schools themselves.

    Google the universities and email their Admission office.
