[quote=Anonymous]I am from the UK and went to a UK university. My kids have been educated entirely in the USA from pre-K thru HS and we're all Americans now. One of my kids at least, will apply to UK universities for the fact he definitely won't want to do a range of courses as required by us colleges (math / science / language etc), but just one focused course that interests him deeply, right from the start. He will also want a single bedroom from the start, which most UK universities can offer, rather than a sharing situation. These are the main reasons. While UK university tuition for overseas students does offer some respite from US costs, it's not comparable to in-state tuition savings and you obviously have the price of travel. Many universities will not allow you to stay in your dorm during certain vacations in the UK either, so you have the cost of moving your stuff out and finding somewhere to stay if you don't return to the US.
