The world’s leading study destination for international students, the US boasts over 150 leading universities in the QS World University Rankings®. In 2015/16, the number of international students choosing to study in the US rose by 7% from the previous year to exceed one million for the first time (reaching 1,043,839), according to the Institute of International Education’s Open Doors report. The most popular states for international students were California, New York and Texas, while the most popular subjects were engineering, business and management, mathematics and computer science.

Of course, it’s not just the high standard of US universities that attracts students from far and wide. Whether you’re attracted to the bright lights and fast pace of the big city or to miles of unspoiled wilderness; sun-kissed beaches or vast mountain ranges; the rustic and traditional or the sleek and modern, this huge and incredibly varied country has something for everyone.

The sheer volume and variety of universities in the US means you can be pretty confident of finding a suitable institution in your preferred setting. And if you don’t get it right the first time, moving between universities in the US is not uncommon, without losing any previous academic credit or having to start over.

Depending on your subject and study level, you might need to take an admissions test, such as the SAT at undergraduate level or the Graduate Record Examination (GRE) at graduate level.

Undergraduate degrees at US universities typically take four years to complete. The first part of the degree is usually spent studying a wide range of subjects – some required and some electives – after which students choose the subject or subjects on which they want to focus – known as “major(s)”.

You may also earn a “minor” qualification alongside your major by completing classes in an additional field. This is often used to supplement the major degree. For example, business majors often minor in economics, while liberal arts majors may minor in philosophy. Some students also choose minors simply to explore a field they’re interested in, even if it does not closely relate to their major.

The academic year in the US is usually split into two semesters, with the fall (autumn) semester beginning in mid to late August and ending in December, while the spring term runs from January to May. Depending on where you’re from, you might find the academic terminology slightly different to what you’re used to.

The US currently has 12 entrants in the QS Best Student Cities index, with each city hosting a variety of prestigious universities as well as distinctive lifestyles and cultures. But which of its cosmopolitan student cities is the one for you?

作为世界领先的国际学生留学目的地，美国在QS世界大学排名中拥有超过150所顶尖的大学。根据国际教育学院的门户开放报告，在2015-16年，选择赴美留学的留学生人数与上年同期相比增长了7%，首次超过100万名(达到1,043,839名学生)。最受国际留学生欢迎的美国的州是加利福尼亚州、纽约州和德克萨斯州，而最受欢迎的专业是工程学、商科和管理学、数学以及计算机科学。

当然，吸引广大留学生们的不仅仅是高水准的美国大学。无论你是喜欢灯火通明、节奏非常快的大城市，还是绵延数英里的荒地;无论你是喜欢阳光亲吻的海滩，还是绵延高大的山脉;无论你是喜欢质朴和传统，还是时髦和现代化，这个巨大以及拥有令人难以置信的变化的国家总有适合每个人的东西。

美国大学的规模和多样性意味着你可以很有信心在你的首选环境中找到合适的大学。如果你第一次并没有选择到最适合你的大学，那么在美国大学之间进行转学并不是一件罕见的事，你可以不放弃你之前的任何学分就可以转学，或者你可以完全重新开始。

根据你的专业和学习等级，你可能需要参加入学考试，例如本科生等级的SAT或者是研究生等级的GRE考试等等。

美国大学的本科学位通常需要四年时间才能完成。学位的第一部分通常用于研究一些通识类的专业——有一些是必修课，有一些是选修课——在这之后，学生会选择科目，或者是他们想要专注研究的科目——被称为“专业”。

在你完成你主要学位的同时，还可以在另外的领域获得一个“副学位”，这个学位常用是用来补充你的主要学位。例如，商科专业的学生会辅修经济学， 而文科专业的学生可能会辅修哲学。有些学生选择辅修另一个专业或者简单地只是为了探索他们感兴趣的领域，即使这个专业与他们目前就读的专业没有密切的关系。

美国的学年通常分为两个学期，秋季学期从8月中旬开始到12月结束，春季学期从1月开始到5月结束。根据你来自的国家不同，你可能会发现美国大学的教育模式与你习惯的教育模式会有所不同。

美国在今年的QS最佳留学城市排名中总共占据了12个席位，这些城市都有大量不同的大学供留学生们选择，除此之外还有多种多样的生活方式和文化。但是哪一个留学城市才是最适合你的呢?下面是出国留学网为大家独家整理并且翻译的美国留学城市介绍，希望对那些想要去美国留学的小伙伴们有帮助。

　　Boston

QS Best Student Cities ranking: 8th

It might seem obvious that at least one US city should feature in the top 10 of a list of the world’s best cities for students – but this has not always been the case. The Affordability category of the QS Best Student Cities index has often kept the US’s leading academic hubs lower down the list. This year, however, Boston breaks a general national pattern, climbing five positions to rank eighth overall.

Boston is without doubt one of the world’s best-known academic hubs, and its position is further bolstered by universities located within the Greater Boston area, in the neighboring town of Cambridge. The most famous of these are the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) and Harvard University –ranked first and third respectively in the QS World University Rankings® 2016-2017.

As one of the most historic cities in the US, Boston combines the hustle and bustle of a major metropolis and a happening arts, politics and culture scene, with an abundance of open green space and the stunning fall colors for which Massachusetts and the region of New England are famous. In addition to the academic might of MIT and Harvard, Boston is home to six more internationally ranked universities, forming a hub of intellectual endeavor which has earned it the nickname “the Athens of America”.

Thanks in part to the two showstoppers, MIT and Harvard, Boston has a very strong score in the University Rankings category of the Best Student Cities index. Its strongest score, however, is for Employer Activity, reflecting the strong international reputation of its institutions among graduate employers worldwide.

The city’s weakest score, predictably, is for Affordability, with fees at top US universities exceeding US$40,000 per year. But in fact both MIT and Harvard operate need-blind admission policies for all applicants, including international students, and generous financial aid packages mean Boston’s universities may not be as out-of-reach as they at first appear.

Meanwhile those who have studied in Boston rate the experience highly. The city comes seventh in the new Student View category, with particularly strong ratings for friendliness, ease of getting around, and arts and cultural offerings.

　　波士顿

2017年最佳留学城市排名：第8位

看起来似乎很明显，至少有1个美国城市能够进入全球最佳留学城市排名的前10位——但是并非一直以来都是如此。在QS最佳留学城市排名的“负担能力”这一评分项阻碍了许多美国顶尖的学术中心得到更高的排名。但是，今年波士顿打破了这个一贯以来的阻碍，在排名中上升5个名次位列整体第8位。

毫无疑问，波士顿绝对是世界上最著名的学术中心之一，并且其地位由位于大波士顿地区的大学进一步加强了，尤其在其周边的剑桥镇内。其中最著名的大学就是哈佛大学与麻省理工学院——这两所大学在2016-2017年QS世界大学排名中分别位列第1和第3位。

作为美国最具历史性的地区之一，波士顿结合喧嚣和热闹的大都市，以及行为艺术、政治和文化活动，此外这里还有大量开阔的绿地和令人惊叹的秋日美景，使得慢车迪特和新英格兰地区都非常有名。除了麻省理工学院和哈佛大学这两个顶尖的学术代表之外，波士顿还有另外6所国际排名的大学，这些大学形成了一个智慧结晶的枢纽，波士顿也赢得了“美国雅典”的绰号。

部分得益于麻省理工学院和哈佛大学这两所备受肯定的大学，波士顿在最佳留学城市指数的“大学排名”类别中得分非常高。但是波士顿得分最高的一项是“雇主活动”，这也反映了波士顿的大学的毕业生在世界各地雇主心目中强大的国际声誉。

不难预料，这座城市得分最低的一项就是“负担能力”，美国顶尖的大学每年要收取超过40,000美元的费用。但是事实上，不管是麻省理工学院还是哈佛大学，都对其申请者采取不问经济条件的录取政策，这其中也包括国际学生，再加上大学各种慷慨的财政援助手段，这也使得波士顿的大学并没有你想象中的那样无法企及。

波士顿位于美国东北部大西洋沿岸，创建于1630年，是美国最古老、最有文化价值的城市之一，这里还是全美人口受教育程度最高的城市。它的经济基础是科研、金融与技术—特别是生物工程，并被认为是一个全球性城市或世界性城市。

哈佛大学、麻省理工学院、塔夫茨大学、波士顿学院、布兰迪斯大学这五所私立顶级名校实行精英教育，教育质量优良,常年在USnews美国大学综合排名中名列前茅，被称为“波士顿五大名校”。

　　New York

QS Best Student Cities ranking: 19th

From architecture and arts to finance and innovation, New York City is one of the world’s leaders in almost every field imaginable – and this includes higher education. With a large selection of prestigious universities located in and around the city, it’s long been a magnet for international students seeking the finest education money can buy – not to mention the chance to live in such an iconic and dynamic metropolis.

Few other cities can rival the high concentration of world-class universities in the NYC area – New York is one of the highest scoring cities in the University Rankings category of the QS Best Student Cities index. The main factor preventing NYC from getting a higher overall position in the index is its low score for Affordability; top-dollar tuition fees combine with relatively high overall living costs to make this one of the world’s more expensive study options.

But for those for whom it is financially viable, New York offers a virtually inexhaustible supply of things to see and do. Home to many of the most important movers and shakers in world culture, business, finance and the media, and pulsating with energy 24/7, the Big Apple will keep throwing up enough surprises and new experiences to keep you going for an entire lifetime, let alone the duration of your degree program.

In the survey used to compile this year’s results, the words “opportunity” and “diversity” recur in students’ descriptions of life in NYC. One respondent sums up the appeal: “There is such a richness of academic, cultural and industry diversity here. Something for everyone.”

　　纽约

2017年最佳留学城市排名：第19位

从建筑、艺术到金融、创新，几乎在任何你能想象的领域里，纽约都是这个世界上毫无疑问的领导城市之一——这当然也包括高等教育。在纽约市里和周围有大量顶尖的大学可供各位留学生们选择，对于那些想要寻求世界上金钱也买不来的顶尖教育的国际留学生来说，纽约无疑有着无法抗拒的吸引力——更别提在这样一个充满标志性和活力的大都市里生活的机会了。

在世界一流名校高度集中这一方面，很少有其他城市能够媲美纽约地区——在QS世界大学排名中，纽约在“大学排名”这一项中是得分最高的城市之一。阻碍纽约获得更高的整体排名的主要原因就是纽约在“负担能力”这一项的低分，高额的学费再加上相对较高的总体生活成本，使得纽约成为了全球留学最昂贵的地区之一。

但是对于那些能够负担纽约高额留学费用的人来说，纽约提供了几乎无穷无尽的能够看和做的事情。许多在世界文化、商业、金融和媒体方面有着重要号召力和影响力的人物都位于纽约，并且加上这座城市7 天24小时不停歇的运转，大苹果能够一直保持足够的惊喜和新的体验，能够让你穷尽这一生不断去探索和发现，更不用说只是在你就读学位课程的那段短短的时间里了。

如果要总结今年的调查结果，那么“机会”和“多样性”这两个单词就是学生描述的纽约不断上演的生活。一位受访者总结了在纽约的生活：“这里充满了如此丰富的学术、文化和产业多样性。有些东西是所有人都可以享受的。”

虽然你可能不认为纽约是世界上最浪漫的城市之一，但是任何人在这里住过一段时间的话注定最终会爱上这个地方。这座城市的多样性意味着，不管你的兴趣是什么，保证你在这里能够找到志同道合的灵魂。若是还想要增加纽约这座城市对学生的吸引力，这里还拥有世界上最令人印象深刻的有国际排名的大学。

纽约坐拥大纽约都会区的核心地带，是一座世界级国际化大都市，也是世界第一大经济中心，直接影响着全球的金融、媒体、政治、娱乐以及时尚界。

　　San Francisco

QS Best Student Cities ranking: Joint 28th

Adjacent to California's famed tech innovation hub Silicon Valley, San Francisco is within striking distance of two of the world's most prestigious universities, Stanford University and the University of California, Berkeley, currently ranked 2nd and 28th in the world respectively.

Made famous in the 1960s as the home of “flower power”, San Francisco remains one of the United States' most iconic and frequently visited cities. With its famously laid-back coastal lifestyle and sunny climate, it’s known for its high quality of life, without the expensive living costs associated with cities like New York (though of course university fees are still as high as you’d expect from top US universities).

Today, the city’s bohemian heritage and relaxed beach style blend with more cutting-edge and competitive dynamics. One of the world's leading 10 financial centers, the San Francisco Bay Area is home to hundreds of innovative companies, particularly in the technology sector, including the likes of Apple, Facebook and IBM, adding to its attraction for ambitious students and graduates.

This, combined with the high caliber of its institutions, gives San Francisco its strongest score in the Employer Activity category of the QS Best Student Cities. This is based on surveys of local and international employers, who are asked to identify the cities they perceive as producing the most talented and employable graduates.

　　旧金山

2017年最佳留学城市排名：并列第28位

毗邻加州著名的科技创新中心硅谷，旧金山拥有两所世界上最负盛名的大学，斯坦福大学和加州大学伯克利分校，这两所大学在目前的世界大学排名中分别位列第2和第28位。

20 世纪60年代著名的“花之力(20 世纪 60 年代和 70 年代初期年轻人信奉爱与和平、反对战争的文化取向)”使得旧金山闻名，旧金山仍然是美国最具标志性和最多游客访问的城市。旧金山凭借悠闲轻松的沿海生活方式，以及阳光充足的气候而闻名，旧金山就是高质量生活的代表，没有像纽约那样的城市那么昂贵的生活费用 (但是大学的学费仍然很高，毕竟你在这里就读的可是美国顶尖的大学)。

今天，这座城市的波希米亚文化遗产和放松的海滩风格，再加上这里尖端的技术和竞争力。旧金山是世界领先的10个金融中心之一，旧金山的湾区还是成百上千的创新型企业的所在地，特别是技术类企业，包括苹果、Facebook和IBM，这也使得对那些有抱负的学生以及已经毕业的学生来说旧金山的吸引力一直在增加。

以上这些，再加上旧金山顶尖的大学使得旧金山在“雇主活动”这一类别中得分很高，是QS最佳留学城市指数所有考核类别中得分最高的类别之一。“雇主活动”是基于对本地和国际雇主的调查，要找出他们认为能够产生最有才华和就业能力的毕业生的城市。

旧金山融合了尖端创新的文化，悠闲的海滩生活以及放荡不羁的传统,这里也是世界领先的金融中心，最受游客青睐的旅游地，以及最多电影的拍摄地，也是雄心勃勃的年轻毕业生最适宜生活的地方之一。旧金山临近世界著名高新技术产业区硅谷(Silicon Valley)，是世界最重要的高新技术研发基地和美国西部最重要的金融中心。旧金山湾区是世界最重要的科教文化中心之一。

　　Washington, DC

QS Best Student Cities ranking: Joint 37th

It should hardly be a surprise to find Washington DC, the federal capital of the world’s most popular study destination, on a list of the planet’s best student cities. This year Washington DC is ranked as the 37th best student city in the world (joint with Copenhagen), up eight places from last year and fourth in the US.

Washington DC’s position as a leading student city is helped by the five universities based in and close to the city that feature in the QS World University Rankings® 2016-2017. These are led by the University of Maryland, College Park at joint 131st in the world, followed by Georgetown University, George Washington University, American University and Howard University.

And of course, studying in Washington DC means being right at the heart of US history and politics – the White House, Supreme Court and national monuments and memorials are all located here. When not seeking study advice from statues of presidents past, you may enjoy spending time in the pretty and vibrant old port area of Georgetown, seeing an exhibition at one of the 19 museums in the Smithsonian group, or engaging in the traditional local pastime of debating politics over a good meal.

Washington DC’s lifestyle has certainly proved a hit with its students, earning it a place in the top 20 of the new Student View category. One respondent to our student survey summed up: “It's the capital of the world. Every important person will go there; the internships, museums and events are incredible. But it's also a real place with good culture, fun bars, good food, and pretty parks. I love DC!”

　　华盛顿

2017年最佳留学城市排名：并列第37位

华盛顿，这座美国的首都城市成为世界上最受欢迎的留学目的地之一，以及这个地球上最佳留学城市之一，应该是毫不意外的。今年，华盛顿特区在最佳留学城市排名中位列第37位，美国第4位，与去年相比上升了8个名次。

华盛顿特区能够成为顶尖的留学城市，这与这座城市里的进入2016-2017年QS世界大学排名中的5所顶尖的大学的帮助分不开。这些大学中排名最高的是马里兰大学帕克分校，位于全球并列第131位，随后是乔治城大学、乔治华盛顿大学、美利坚大学和霍华德大学。

当然，在华盛顿特区留学也意味着你在美国的历史和政治中心——白宫、最高法院、国家纪念碑和纪念馆都位于这里。如果你不需要从以往历届总统雕像寻求学习的建议，你可以享受把时间花在美丽而又充满活力的老港区乔治敦，看看19个史密森尼博物馆其中之一的展览，或者参加传统地方消遣活动来一场政治辩论。

华盛顿特区的生活方式当然也证明了其在学生心中的地位，在今年新纳入排名考核的“学生观点”这一项上，华盛顿的排名位于全球前20名之内。一位参加QS学生调查的受访者总结称：“华盛顿是世界的首都。每个重要的人都会去那里;实习、博物馆和活动都是令人难以置信的。但是它真的是一个有很棒的文化、有趣的酒吧、美味的食物和漂亮的公园的地方。我爱华盛顿!”

华盛顿特区提供了一个能够在美国政治中心学习的机会，这里也是一个多方面美国艺术和文化的展示地。这个城市也拥有极负盛名的大学，包括乔治城大学和乔治华盛顿大学。马里兰大学帕克分校到邻近的马里兰不到半小时的车程。

这里经济色彩不浓，是大多数美国联邦政府机关与各国驻美国大使馆的所在地，也是世界银行、国际货币基金组织、美洲国家组织等国际组织总部的所在地，还拥有为数众多的博物馆与文化史迹。

Chicago

QS Best Student Cities ranking: 46th

A fast-paced, high-rise economic hub, Chicago is also a city that famously knows how to let its hair down. Nicknamed 'The Windy City', Chicago saw an explosion of blues and jazz music during the 20th century which earned it a reputation as the northern US's answer to New Orleans.

Chicago is also home to two of the nation's – and the world’s – most prestigious universities, the University of Chicago (ranked 10th in the world), and Northwestern University (32nd), plus two more universities within the global top 500.

In the QS Best Student Cities index, Chicago’s strongest score is in the Employer Activity category, reflecting the robust reputation of its institutions among graduate employers. As for other US cities, the weak point is affordability, due to the high tuition fees charged by leading private institutions such as the University of Chicago.

But for many students, the exceptional academic facilities on offer, alongside the myriad social and cultural opportunities offered by this bustling metropolis, will make studying in Chicago well worth the investment. In our student survey, one respondent praised “The variety of cultures and activities present throughout all its neighborhoods.”

　　芝加哥

2017年最佳留学城市排名：第46位

芝加哥是一个节奏很快、上升迅速的经济枢纽，但是芝加哥也是一个非常著名的能够让你放松的城市。芝加哥也被称为“风之城”，在20世纪期间，芝加哥的布鲁斯和爵士乐得到了迅猛发展，在美国北部地区都有非常高的声誉，足以媲美新奥尔良。

芝加哥也是两所全国——甚至全世界——都饱受盛名的大学的所在地，芝加哥大学(世界大学排名第10位)以及美国西北大学(世界大学排名第32位)，此外还有另外两所位于全球前500名内的大学。

芝加哥在QS最佳留学城市排名的评分中得分最高的一项是“雇主活动”，这也反映了毕业生在雇主心目中的良好声誉。至于弱点就和美国其他的城市一样了，芝加哥得分比较弱的一项是“负担能力”，这是由于像芝加哥大学这样的顶尖私立大学收取的高额学费造成的。

但是对于许多学生来说，除了芝加哥所提供的优质的学术资源之外，这座繁华的大都市还提供众多的社交和文化机会，这些也将使得在芝加哥留学的投资非常值得。在QS的学生调查中，一位受访者称赞道：“各种文化和活动遍及芝加哥所有的社区”。

芝加哥凭借丰富的音乐遗产、充满激情的运动迷、高耸入云的摩天大楼以及湖滨沙滩而闻名。在芝加哥的生活费用明显低于纽约，但是这并不意味着芝加哥的教育质量或生活质量低。

芝加哥被称为最具美国特质的城市，它将中西部与世界遗留的文化及美食景观融为一体。芝加哥是美国主要文化教育中心之一。大市区内有95所大专院校，建于1890年的芝加哥大学享有国际声誉，该校的东方研究所和博物馆以收藏东方艺术珍品著称;还有伊利诺伊大学、伊利诺伊理工学院、西北大学等著名学府。

Los Angeles

QS Best Student Cities ranking: Joint 47th

Home to two universities ranked within the world’s top 150, Los Angeles achieves particularly strong scores in the Desirability and Employer Activity categories of the QS Best Student Cities index. The latter reflects the views of local and international employers, who clearly view the city as a key hub from which to recruit bright new talents. Certainly it’s no surprise to find that graduates of the world-renowned University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) are in high demand.

Home to the Hollywood film industry and absolutely packed with galleries, museums, theaters and all kinds of performance venues, LA is often touted as the ‘Creative Capital of the World’. In addition to its large comprehensive state universities, the city also has numerous private universities and colleges, many specializing in fields relating to the creative arts.

Whatever your field of interest, LA is likely to have a strong offering – whether it’s business, science, fashion, medicine, sports or technology. It is, after all, the second-largest metropolitan area in the US(after New York). And the southern Californian climate is an added bonus, with sunshine guaranteed pretty much year-round, probably helping it to earn a strong score for Desirability!

Los Angeles is highly rated by many students, with one survey respondent commenting in our student survey: “It is perfectly located, near beaches, mountains, forests. It has the charms of a big city and the size of a sprawling suburb. There is a lot to do here. The weather is great.”

　　洛杉矶

2017年最佳留学城市排名：并列第47位

洛杉矶有两所位于全球前150名内的大学，这座城市在QS最佳留学城市的”合意性”和“雇主活动”这两个评分项中取得了非常高的分数。后者反映了本地和国际雇主对于洛杉矶的看法，他们显然把这座城市当作是招募顶尖新人才的关键地方。对于世界著名的加州大学洛杉矶分校的毕业生处于供不应求这一点也毫无意外了。

洛杉矶这里是好莱坞电影产业的发源地，并且这里到处都是画廊、博物馆、剧院和各种表演场地，洛杉矶经常被吹捧为“世界的创意首都”。洛杉矶除了大型综合公立大学之外，这里也有许多私立大学和学院，很多学院都专注于艺术创作相关的领域。

不管你感兴趣的领域是什么，洛杉矶都能为你提供你想要的一切——无论是商业、科学、时尚、医学、体育或者技术。毕竟，洛杉矶是仅次于纽约的美国第二大的都会区。南加州美妙的气候也是你额外的福利，这里几乎全年都是阳光灿烂的，可能这一点也帮助洛杉矶在“合意性”这一项上得到了不错的分数。

许多学生都给予了洛杉矶非常高的评价，其中一位参加学生调查的受访者称：“这是一个非常完美的地方，靠近海滩、山脉以及森林。洛杉矶有一个大城市的魅力，但是只是一个广阔的郊区的大小。在这里有太多的事情可以做了。并且这里的气候也非常棒”。

这里是好莱坞电影产业的发源地，洛杉矶在文学、音乐和其他种类的艺术方面也有非常丰富的资源，拥有比任何其他美国城市更多的剧院和博物馆，这里也是美国石油化工、海洋、航天工业和电子业的最大基地之一，同时好莱坞、加州迪士尼乐园、环球影城等等都位于洛杉矶，奢华的比佛利山庄也坐落在洛杉矶的中心地带。
