<p>^simonesimmo: auntbea is pulling your leg or, more accurately, giving you correct information that is also a sent up. for-profit schools, as the name indicates, aren’t in it to educate you, but to make money off of you (their graduates have, on average, 4 times more debt than public universities’ graduates, and many degrees they offer are simply worthless as they’re not recognized.) They are, however, guaranteed: if you pay them, they’ll happily admit you and keep you enrolled even if you don’t succeed at all, as long as you keep paying.
I’m not sure they’re accredited for I20s though.</p>

You also can check the websites of the individual colleges and universities to find out if any of them extend their auto-admit policies to internationals: <a href=“Updated list of schools with auto-admit (guaranteed admission) criteria - Applying to College - College Confidential Forums”>Updated list of schools with auto-admit (guaranteed admission) criteria - Applying to College - College Confidential Forums;

<p>If you need financial aid, the very small number of institutions that have auto-admit and guaranteed aid can be found in this thread. The policies can change from one year to another, but this year several of the places on this list did have guaranteed aid for internationals who qualified based on grades and test scores: <a href=“Updated list of schools with auto-admit (guaranteed admission) criteria - Applying to College - College Confidential Forums”>Updated list of schools with auto-admit (guaranteed admission) criteria - Applying to College - College Confidential Forums;
