Australian College for International Relations?

We Answered:

The Australian National University, University of Sydney, and University of Technology, Sydney, are all pretty good for international relations.

ANU is internationally renowned, especially for its research. It is also well-regarded in its 'international' programs, including international law, international relations etc. Its science department is also well regarded.

USyd and UTS call it International and Global Studies. These degrees get even more popular each year. UTS is particularly popular because it requires or strongly recommends (can't remember) students to go on a 1 or 2 semester exchange year.

Also, what do you want to specialise in? If you want to specialise in Asia, or take Asia-related courses, ANU and UNSW are pretty good. If you'd like to take European/Middle East courses, ANU, USyd and UTS are all decent.

You should probably check on the respective websites of these universities to see if you like them or not.

British resident looking for CHEAP international study in Australia...?

We Answered:

Hi! It really depends if you want to actually learn something or just need a visa.

The cheapest place to study is bridge business college, but it is very basic in what you learn, it is really just for the visa. It costs $1250 a term.

I hope this helps :)

How hard is it to get into an Ivy League College? (I'm a Year 12 student from Australia)

We Answered:

There are eight Ivy league universities and they range from quite small to small. All of them together enroll much less than 20,000 freshmen each year, while in the whole USA more than 2,000,000 freshmen start university... so they are only a small part of the US college system. Because they are so famous they get many thousands of applications for admission from the best students in the USA - Harvard, for instance, gets well over 20,000 applications including over 3000 applications from students ranked #1 in their high school. But only about 1200 will become Freshmen at Harvard. So, that's a pretty difficulty competition. American students are eligible for a lot of different scholarships, but in general international students have to pay the price of tuition and fees. At the Ivy League schools this year, that would be about $50,000 USD per year, plus the cost of living in the USA during the time when school is not in session.

Besides the Ivy League there are about 10 or so other elite private universities in the USA. Most commonly mentioned in rankings lists are Stanford, Duke, University of Chicago, and a few others, plus of course the great technical universities such as MIT and Caltech. But, the vast majority of American students do not attend these schools. THey are only for the very best students.

Duane Said:

What is the % of international students (I'm from Australia) who get into Harvard college (undergraduates)?

We Answered:

I don't have the information you seek - but I believe you can get it all if you go to the Havard Admissions website http://www.admissions.college.harvard.ed… and contact them yourself.

Good Luck!!!
