text: 1. Public high schools are free to go to here. You only have to pay for private schools. There are also ways to get money help to pay for a university, such as financial aid, student loans and scholarships.\n2. Most people are interested in meeting people from other countries. I'm sure you will have no problem finding friends.\n3. A university is probably better because you have more freedoms, but in America, you go to High School for grades 9-12 and after you graduate from that, then you can go to a University or College.\n\nHope this helps :)
