What do the terms undergraduate and graduate mean?
An undergraduate student is studying for a Bachelor’s degree at a U.S. college or university. A graduate student is studying for a Master’s degree, a Ph.D., or a professional degree in fields such as law or medicine. The term “a graduate” refers to someone who has received a Bachelor’s, Master’s, or a Ph.D. from an accredited institutions, i.e. “she is a graduate of Harvard University; he is a Stanford graduate.”
How much money do I need to study in the U.S. for one year?
The amount of money you need depends on which school you chose to attend. Tuition for one year can range from $10,000 to $30,000. Some of the most expensive universities cost as much as $40,000 per year. You will also need $6,000-$12,000 to cover living expenses. Expenses will vary greatly based on where in the U.S. your school is.
Who can be my financial sponsor?
Most students are sponsored by parents or family members living in Bangladesh or abroad. When you apply for a student visa, your sponsors must submit financial documentation that demonstrates their ability to pay for the full course of your education, including both tuition and living expenses. Sponsors must have the entire amount needed for the first year of education (tuition and living expenses) readily available in liquid assets, such as in bank accounts. For subsequent years, the sponsor needs to be able to document income sources from which future tuition and living expenses will come, such as wages from a job.
Can I get a scholarship?
Competition for financial aid is intense, especially at the undergraduate level. Nonetheless, in 2009 outstanding Bangladeshi students received more than $900,000 in scholarships and financial aid. Private universities are more likely to offer financial aid for undergraduate study. Often financial aid does not cover the entire cost of tuition and living expense.
At the graduate level, there are more opportunities for financial aid from both public and private universities. Often the financial aid comes in the form of research or teaching assistant-ships. These awards may cover tuition expenses and provide a monthly stipend.
When do I apply for financial aid?
Include your financial aid application in your admission application packet. The deadline for financial aid applications is usually in January or February (if you are applying for a September admission).
Can I get a job while I am studying in the U.S.?
The terms of American student visas (F-1) only allow you to work in an on-campus job or in an internship approved by the university. Typically, these jobs will not pay enough to cover tuition, but can help you meet your living expenses.
