FYI - Canadian citizens don't need to get a visa to study in the US.

University of British Columbia is good for high school international seniors coz it gives generous scholarships (global leadership awards)...but for graduated ppl i don't think there are much opportunities...by opportunities i mean aid for internationals...

Do you send your high school transcripts to colleges directly or are they meant to be sent by you Guidance counselor along with the school report and other forms?
