Nepal among top 10 foreign students in US

It is an interesting stat for a small country like ours. 
Though we have a good strength of students here in US, 18% of grad vs 72% undergrad is unlike the distribution of our neighbors China & India. I am not sure what % of  undergrads get to complete their degree and either enroll for a grad school or get a decent job. Undergrad studies in the US is tough financially and also take longer time before one graduates. I only wished most of the Nepalese students here could land up getting a good job and a have prosperous future.  This would certainly impact the development of our country through evolution if not revolution.
Nepalese are hard working students but we lack information and patience prior to arrival to the US. If only we could advise and suggest our relatives and friends coming to US about the right process to get here-take time to prepare for GRE,GMAT,TOEFL...etc.,apply to multiple schools with diligence and without worrying too much about application fees, write a good essay etc,it benefit the incoming student and the Nepalese community in the long run. 

And one more request- let us make Sajha a better community.

Jai Nepal
