Which US colleges attract the most British students?

Bit of a strange one here, but I'm from the UK and am considering studying in the US for college. Just wondering, which colleges in the US have a high British student presence? It'd be comforting to have some fellow Brits on campus. Cheers!

There are several American universities known to attract a diverse range of international students, including those from the UK.

Harvard University is a popular choice due to its worldwide prestige, and it has a significant population of international students.

Likewise, New York University (NYU) has a high number of international students as it's located in a vibrant, cosmopolitan city that has a lot to offer.

Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) and Stanford University are also top choices for international students, especially those interested in technology and engineering programs.

Yale and Princeton Universities, along with Columbia University in New York City, have a reputation for attracting considerable numbers of international students as well.

These universities not only offer a superb education, but also a global perspective due to the diverse student body. It would be worth it to explore each of these institutions further to view their individual offerings and campus cultures. It's also helpful to note that reaching out to these colleges' international student services offices may provide more in-depth data regarding their current British student population.
