While you are busy Applying to US Universities, you should get a driving license in your home country as soon as possible. And remember to pack it in your luggage to USA. Once you are settled in USA, you may not be able to buy a car during your student life, still try to get a US driving license sooner than later.


Eventually when you buy a car, you will need to buy vehicle insurance. If you have no driving history, you may be charged twice as much as experienced drivers with a good driving record. Some insurance companies will give no weight to your driving history outside USA and Canada, but some will take that into account. All companies will check how long you have held a US license.


It may be noted that driving history is based on the issuance date of your license. If you can show that you had a US license for a couple of years and had a license in another country before that, you can save as much as 50 dollars per month on your car insurance premium.

Many of you will end up with admission offers from good Universities, well, without any funding. You will have to make an easy decision to join a low ranked University or the difficult decision to join a great University without funding.


Students do take some risk and go without funding. Many of them eventually get some job or assistantships in library, computer center or even other departments. You can do one small thing before reaching US which will assure you some kind of job on campus. Learn some HTML and programming skills. Make your own website which you can show to an employer to prove you really know HTML.


Students from any background even History or Biology can do this. We encourage you to learn some computing skills and use it to find on campus student jobs. Working outside the University is illegal for international students. Details here.
