The US has a great appeal when it comes to university education, both for American and international students. However, it can be hard to navigate the vast range of opportunities and education offerings available.
Generally speaking, there are several elements to consider to find the right university: from the programmes (of course) to the campus life, from the opportunities for networking and international exchange to the support related to one’s career development, and many more.
However, there is one more point to keep in mind which is strictly connected to a study experience in the US and it is your willingness to be immersed in a true American context.
If this is something that teases you, you should definitely consider moving to Ohio!
