Why? I know a few people who've gone on exchanges to Yale who are probably BoS members.

Hey, I went to college once, but all they found were rats in my head!

Is it hard to transer to Harvard or NYU? serious question too, do they usually accept international students? I've also wondered do they have a HECS type system or do you have to pay upfront?.
Why not check their website?

No HECs, but I think you might be able to get a student loan?
oh and pretty sure you pay about 40k - 50k a year for an ivy league college
(oh and NYU isn't ivy league)

Those universities only accept those who are extremely intelligent or extremely rich.

No point going there unless you're doing Graduate or Post-grad stuff anyway.

I know. Lol at wanting to travel to the other side of the world and pay exorbitant amounts of fees for a generic BA or BSc.

Grad studies there are dreamy, though...

Yes. There was a girl on here who got accepted to Harvard and went. No joke.

There is no HECS style system but you can get student loans and financial aid. It's a lot more complicated though and I'd really recommend thoroughly researching it.

If you know what you want to study and specialise in, I'd recommend not going there for undergrad.
