An International Student

[scoriae]

Greetings DegreeForum!

I've been a lurker for a while now, and was hoping to pull the trigger in getting a fast-track degree started! There was a question I was not able to find the answer to through reading the posts and via the search function, though it could be because my searching ability is a bit... lackluster

I am of Canadian Citizenship currently located in South Korea. I understand the big three (currently looking at TESU) are American Universities.

I was wondering if anyone had experience in completing a degree despite being considered an international student? The ACE Registry asks for a student number or a Social Security Number, both of which I do not have which does make me a bit dubious on how my to-be credits may be completed.

I also have a Three Year Diploma (equiv. to an AS?) from a Canadian College, but I am uncertain if it would be worth getting it reviewed for transfer credits given the time, costs and the fact that I am in an international location both in relation to Canada and the US.

Any advice and information would be very much appreciated
