With 4,700 accredited higher education institutions and over one million international students U.S.A. maintains, continuously, its long standing position as the topmost host country for international students from across the world!

As a Government initiative to support the U.S. institutions to attract more and the best talents, the EducationUSA advisors of the global network centers supported by the U.S. Department of State provide millions of international students in 180 countries with accurate, comprehensive, and current information on study programs offered by the education institutions in the U.S.A.

U.S. institutions are known for STEM subjects, and half of the one million students study in TEM related fields in various colleges and universities. A lot of start-up entrepreneurs came to the U.S.A. through the education system of the country.

Start-ups founded or cofounded by international students in the United states have created thousands of jobs and established companies worth $100 billion according to NFAP.

“The United States is nothing else than layers and layers of immigrants of different times and periods in history, all making that jump to a better life – giving something up and trying something new”.

The next Elon Musk – the entrepreneur from South Africa, who studied at University of Pennsylvania, founded Tesla and SpaceX, and co founded PayPal – could be another foreign student who migrated to a U.S. university with the BIG American dream!
