I’m Romanian, I’ve just finished high school, I’m currently taking the Bacalaureat, and I’ve already been admitted to an American university (USC). I knew from the start that I wanted to study abroad, and I’ve always been fascinated by California, especially Los Angeles, so the U.S. was my first choice. That said, I also looked into universities in the UK, the Netherlands, Canada, and Ireland, and their tuition fees are significantly lower.
International students at US universities are 1% genius level students with full ride scholarships and maybe even grants. 5% student athletes with full rides, and likely NIL packages now. 94% children of rich parents that can afford the full tuition price and an apartment + allowance for their children.
yep, unis at my city all have international rich kid dorms that are high end luxury and they park their lambos outside. they don’t associate with the regular students, they live a totally isolated world. they also have lots of special academic ‘help’ to make sure they keep writing those 100K per year checks to the uni and don’t fail out.
when i caught international kids cheating when I was teaching i was basically told to sweep in under the rug because their tuition paid my salary. the rules don’t apply to them because $$$$.
