When you sign up with SureAdmit, we answer these questions - and all of the other ones too - by doing three things. One, we maximize your chances for landing scholarships and financial aid at those institutions that have a clear financial aid policy and where you are eligible and competent for admission and scholarships.
Two, we create possibilities for need-based financial aid using our deep understanding of the system and the 'unstated' practices that almost all universities follow! And three, we design an education-financing strategy for you to keep your costs down and affordable through your education years, assisting you get new opportunities as you move along your semesters and terms.
In the absolute sense, education in US indeed becomes a financial bother, especially for International students. But there is a very strong case for looking at another emerging reality. A SureAdmit research concludes that the costs of good quality education have actually risen internationally at almost 30% CAGR over the past five years. This is way higher than the cost rise in the US! Many institutions in European, Asian, African, Pacific and Latin American countries with little or no renown and often dubious credentials will have their cost of education almost matching to a known and respected US college or university! The choice should not be difficult to make.
