In all honesty students who get accepted to universities such as Yale, Princeton and Harvard are capable of doing their own research on such matters and you need to start doing the same.

The admissions requirements for those universities are very rigorous and the places for them are extremely competitive. The cost is also very high. The minimum requirements are that you must take he following standardized tests: The SAT I and two SAT II Subject Tests or the ACT.

The cost to attend is also very high, below I will link you to the requirements for admission as an international student for each of the universities you mentioned and their costs.

Yale:

Yale, Princeton or Harvard?

You need to be honest with yourself. Are you the brightest student in your school, no question of it? If so, go for it. If not...you might want to also look at slightly less academic colleges.

If you are a truly exceptional student, you can definitely go to one of these schools; all take a high percentage of international students. You would have to get an F-1 visa, but certainly that can be done from Australia. You can look on the websites of each of these schools for the application procedures for international students.

Wow. You have to be very wealthy or a genuis to get into one of those schools. Like... the top of your class, no criminal background, over hundreds of thousands of dollars, scholarships. You have to be the perfect student. Select people get into those Ivy league schools. Good luck with that..... If you qualify, I would choose Harvard! :)

You should be able to, but you might have to apply for a student visa.
