What are the cheapest colleges for international students in the U.S.?

I'm from overseas and looking at colleges in the U.S. but I'm on a tight budget. Would really appreciate it if someone could point out the cheapest options available.

While college tuition can be expensive, there are a few U.S. institutions known to have more reasonable costs for international students. Keep in mind, however, that tuition rates are not the only factor to consider. The cost of living in the city where the college is located can also significantly affect your expenses.

1. Berea College in Kentucky is known for not charging tuition to any students. Instead, Berea offers every student a "Tuition Promise Scholarship," which fully covers the cost of tuition.

2. Bemidji State University in Minnesota, is a public university known for its affordability. The estimated tuition and fees for an academic year for international undergraduate students is around $10,200.

3. Minot State University in North Dakota charges international students the same tuition rate as their in-state students. The estimate for tuition and fees for the academic year for an international undergraduate student is around $8,700.

Remember that these figures can fluctuate yearly, so it's important to check directly with the institutions for the most updated costs. Financial aid for international students can be limited, but it's worth it to investigate each institution's financial aid options as they can sometimes offer scholarships or work-study programs. Lastly, consider using a Net Price Calculator (each university website usually has one) to get a more accurate gauge of your prospective costs, which can include room and board, meal plans, textbooks, and personal expenses.
