# Universal Student Fund Careers

> <p>Universal Student Fund was created for students, by students.  Our goal is to reduce the barriers to enjoying college in the United States.<br></p><p>From financial support to building a cohesive social network, we work to identify barriers students face, and to break them down into manageable pieces.  This includes:<br></p><ul>
<li>Providing loans, scholarships and grants to lower the financial burden of college in the U.S.</li>
<li>Working with students on their college application process, to avoid common mistakes</li>
<li>Guiding students through immigration requirements to move abroad</li>
<li>Building a social network for international students studying in the U.S., to facilitate sharing experiences and finding a home away from home</li>
<li>Answering common questions as students move abroad, from how to rent an apartment to setting up a bank account</li>
</ul><p>The number of international students studying in the United States increased by <strong>10%</strong> from 2014-15, and this trend is projected to grow exponentially.  Each student coming to the United States faces unique challenges: finding the right school, presenting yourself to Admissions Directors, and navigating the complex immigration process, to name a few.<br></p><p>We're here to help.  We offer tailored support in three key areas: choosing a university; developing a personal essay and application; and preparing for visa interviews and applications.  We are here to understand the legal complexities and cultural expectations so our clients have not only a competitive advantage, but so they feel comfortable transitioning to higher education in the United States.</p><p>We support our clients from start to finish, from understanding college application requirements, to finding housing and a social network when they arrive in the United States.  We firmly believe that higher education should be accessible to all, and the cost of university should not be a barrier to following your passion. <br></p>
