1) Paying for college is very difficult for many Americans, because tuition is very expensive. Since these schools are so expensive, students often take out student loans. These are special loans that are given to students to help them pay for college. These do not need to be paid back until after the student graduates from college.

2) Applying to school is also diff ferent in America. First, students must take an entrance exam. After that, they must fill out an application for every school they want to go to. You can apply to as many schools as you want. After you do this, you must wait for the school to send you an acceptance or a rejection letter. In the end, you pick your favorite school from the one's that accepted you. Now it's time to get ready to go to school.

2）在美国申请大学也是不同的。首先，学生必须参加入学考试，之后须填写你想去的学校的申请表。你可以尽可能多地申请学校。做完这一切后，你所能做的就是等待学校的录取通知书或者拒绝通知书。最后你可以从录取你的学校中选择一个你最想去的学校。现在就开始打点行装准备入学了。
