I've heard that it's easier for international students to get into american universities, because they pay more (if it's public) and they usually don't need/get any financial help from the school. Is that true?

I just took my first practice writing test on the princeton review and they gave me a score of 2. I can't believe my score is so low, I'm ADD but half my classes are honors, and I've always gotten an A in english. I usually get a "B" on a paper but I usually spend two hours typing it up and another three polishing it. I got a six on the SAT essay so I feel like the ACT is grading tougher than the SAT. I want to be able to get a ten on the essay.

Like "least said, soonest mended." You can't say less than nothing. But if your car breaks down and you say nothing, it will never be mended.

Based on my age factor (and the fact that I took an adult one) could this mean that as I become older I will score higher on the test?

I recently received an email from NYU stating that any NYC who applies has their fee waivered. Is this really true. Personally I'd rather not have $65 on the line.

Actual email:
Dear <>:
It is impossible to envision New York University without New York City.
Probably no college or university is more closely identified with its
home town than is NYU.
But, we have a problem. Over the past two decades or so, we have
experienced a small, but steady, decrease in the portion of our freshman
class from New York City. We know that many of our students are drawn
from across the country and across the globe in large measure by the
chance to experience New York City as NYU students, and we believe that a
good part of that experience includes actually being around New Yorkers
not only on the sidewalks and public parks, but in classes, in residence
halls, and on athletic teams and student clubs. New Yorkers like you!

I would like to go back to school to study accounting to become a CPA. I have a BA in Studio Art and a MS in Library and Information Studies. Since I have no background in accounting I am thinking it may be better to go back to undergraduate school. Perhaps a graduate program will be too difficult and I assume I should already have a solid knowledge base of the subject before I start graduate work. (Although I went right into my Library Studies program with no prior academic experience in that subject). I am looking for advice and/or recommendations. Thanks.

I've always used "are as follows" as in:

The objectives of the programme are as follows:
A
B
C

However, I just spotted someone using:

The charges for the dinner are as follow:
A
B
C

Could someone enlighten me with the correct grammar here? Thanks. It should always be "are as follows" right?
