美国有大约4千多所高校，对国际生来说，如何选择学校是一个头疼的问题。不过，如果能从这些学校中找到对国际生友好的学校，那范围就能缩小。
USNews收集了2016-2017学年可提供本、硕、博三种学位类型的大学数据，并剔除综排倒数25%的美国学校，通过US News Global Eucation获取各大学对国际生提供支持与服务的数据，最终从原先的19项评判标准综合起来，形成6个调查指标：
国际生的六年毕业率高于平均水平。
国际生大一新生保持率高于平均水平。
学校提供ESL或其他“英语为第二语言”课程作为国际生的特殊服务。
学校里有国际学生组织。
学校为国际学生提供Nee-base或其他类型经济援助。
向国际生提供：英语实验室；国际学生中心；特约辅导员；假期住宿；餐厅“节日服务”；非英语招生网站；语言成绩豁免政策；条件录取等11项服务。
在第一至第五项指标中，如果美国大学每达到一项，则+1，没有达到则-1；如果大学提供第六项指标中6个以上服务则+1，达不到则-1。如果学校不回应调查指标也会-1。
最终大约150所大学上榜，我们一起看看这些毕业率高、新生保持率高，还为国际生提供各种友好政策的大学。
