It is different here. You might want to take a look at the international student threads here to see what information is there. I think you are in a really good position though. Some international students apply from countries with limited educational options, but students from countries who have good ones have a choice. Also, some families determine what they are willing to pay for, for instance your family might consider a top US college worth the extra expense, but would not be willing to pay for a college that isn’t better than the ones you have in France.

I think a plan is to discuss finances with your parents and then make a list of colleges they are willing to pay for. Depending on your scores, you can see what is realistic and what is not. You can also add some schools with merit awards and see what happens. In any case, you have college in France as one of your choices.
