Best colleges for international transfer students?

I'm an international student looking to transfer to a college in the U.S. and I'd love to know what schools are especially welcoming and supportive for international transfers. Any recommendations would be super helpful!

There are several American colleges that have strong resources, scholarships, and support structures for international transfer students, and I'll mention a few of them here:

1. New York University (NYU): NYU has a substantial international population and is one of the U.S. schools with the highest number of international students. The school's international student services provide assistance with visa, academic, and social issues.

2. University of Southern California (USC): USC also has a significant international student body and offers comprehensive resources for international students, such as an Office of International Services.

3. University of California - Berkeley and Los Angeles (UCLA): These UC schools are known for their diverse student populations, and their International Student Services provide assistance with visa processing, cultural adjustment, and academic issues.

4. University of Michigan: Michigan also has strong support for international students, including the International Center which serves as a resource for students.

5. Cornell University: Cornell's Office of Global Learning helps international students with the transition process, provides visa services, and offers a supportive community to international students.

Each of these schools has a dedicated office or department for international students, which can help with everything from visa processing to cultural adjustment. In addition to these schools, you should consider factors like location, major offerings, campus size, and cultural fit when selecting a school to transfer to. Always double-check and verify that the schools and programs of interest are still currently active and continuing to offer support and resources to international students.
