I am always at doubt of the quality of my university (even though it is the best one in my country for my major which is engineering) and I want to know if taking a scholarship to the USA is easy and will guarantee me better education. I am studying in Kuwait university, it's a non mixed gender public university in Kuwait. For its credit I know that it's accredited by ABET "Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology". I am in my first course so I don't know if this is just anxiety from transferring from high school to college education. Any advices on whether I should stay here for few courses or it is better and recommended to try and get scholarship at fast at possible?
