Have you done any research regarding which area of the U.S.A. that you might like to establish residence? The Austin, Texas area might be to your liking.
Also, make sure you have some financial backing. There are scholarships available, esp. for science/engineering students, but competition is stiff and you will most probably not get a stipend to defray living costs. You'll need a car, car insurance, etc. and you've gotta have some dough to pay for that.
Look at some of the Universities that you'd like to attend and get information from them directly. The administrators at the Uni deal with foreign students all the time and they're probably your best resource.

Vermont to cold ....You got a sister bring her or maybe ask Galway girl to come over with ya...
Listen to skubadiva, she really knows what she's talking about. Oh and Vermont???? Employment options may be somewhat limited in VT. You'll need to secure a part time job to live on unless your lady friend will support you.
Maybe you should come here for a visit first and travel around the US a bit.
yea we are easy to find just go south west for I would say maybe 3000 miles till you see this staute of a green lady with a torch, that would be New York then head north and a little east and your in Vermont ,oh you may want a boat or plane as there is a bit of water you will need to cross.....
