It would be great for ReComers who are interested to further studies to U.S., especially to Liberal Arts College to be there!

Agree that LACs are great school. Some LACs are very generous with financial aid. For example, I manage to get around USD 49,000 of scholarships from Amherst College.

If you're applying to the States, make sure you diversify your university categories. Apply to some of the top (ie: Harvard, Yale, Pton, MIT), some from the middle rank, some from the LACs and some from the state universities.

Don't apply to only the top universities. I know many who ended up with 100% rejection and 0% acceptance.
