U.S. Educational System

Are you interested in studying in the United States?  If so, your first step is to educate yourself about education!
The United States system of higher education is very different from the Algerian system.  Below is our primary handout on U.S. higher education.  You should use this as your first resource to begin to learn about the process for studying in the United States.
