If you already have and idea of what schools you want to go to you should go to their website and look for a link to admissions. Most schools will have an online application and an application checklist so that you can make sure you get every step and don't miss deadlines. Many schools include a section in their application regarding if you would like to be considered for financial aid. You can also contact the university's financial aid office directly to get advice on what aid applications you should fill out and better information of scholarship application. For a more general search of scholarships and financial aid you could try a site like www.fastweb.com which is a search engine for scholarships and loans. Good luck!

While there are certain forms like the FAFSA (for financial aid) and the Common Application that many use, you're going to run into a number of supplemental forms that are unique to each institution. Their websites will explain what those are, and should have a section for foreign applicants. If you get lost, you can always contact the admissions office for help. If you're having trouble narrowing down exactly where you want to go, try a test prep site like ETS, Kaplan, or Princeton Review for recommendations, or just run search strings on areas you're interested in.
