This week，We talk about the application process for American colleges and universities．This is Part Eight in our Foreign Student Series．Earlier，we explained how to begin a search for schools by going to one of the American educational advising centers around the world．We also discussed the rules for entering in the United States．
71
But if your goal is to come to the United States to study，then it is time to make a list of colleges of universities that interest you． 72 Directors of foreign student admissions say students should apply to at least three schools．
Some students want to attend a small college．Others want to go to a big university．That university in Columbus．Ohio，in the Midwest，has almost fifty-two thousand students．There are students this year from around one hundred fifty countries．Ohio State provides international students with an application on its Web site． 73 Or you can print the forms and mail them with the payment．
Many colleges and universities have their applications and also their catalogs online．You should start on your applications at least two years before you want to begin studies． 74 But answering all the questions is not enough．Another important step is taking admissions tests．The SAT is the college entry test that American high school students most commonly take． 75 Colleges and universities may also require international students to take the TOEFL—the Test of English as a Foreign Language．
A．Completing a college application can take some time． B．You can pay the application charge online with a credit card． C．Another one is the ACT． D．If a really big university appeals to you，then there aye ones like Ohio State．
