Hmm... I don't know much about legal status of immigrants in America... But I can point you to people who do.

I think you should try getting your life in order first (must be tough as a refugee) find a stable source of income, before applying to university! 1 year delay is not much, don't rush things!

Check college websites regarding their policies (what they need) and see if it matches you. That's the best thing you should do for now~

BTW, this website is for essay help :D Not general college advice.

Best of Luck!!

Thank you Shadow93!! I really appreciate that!!

And I forgot to tell that I am 17! But I've graduated school from country I arrived.
Is it ok for my age to skip a year without studying anywhere!

Guys, Do universities accept refugee students?

This kind of thing varies a great deal depending on your circumstances. Do you have legal immigration status? I hope you are able to attend school and achieve all your goals! Do not get discouraged. Some of us need to wait 10 years or more before we take our education!

You seem like a very well-rounded person. I hope this link helps you refugees.org

The purpose of the SAT is to see how prepared you are for college. I think you can find resources through the link above, and they will help you prepare. You should visit or call a school you want to attend and ask the admissions office to help you achieve your goal.

Good luck! I'm glad you are participating here.
