Is USA a good option for diploma studies for Sahil, who is currently in class twelve?

The USA is generally not the best option for diploma studies after Class 12, as diploma programs are less common there compared to full undergraduate degrees.

- Direct bachelor's admission is more typical for international students after Class 12, especially if Sahil has no backlogs and meets academic and English proficiency requirements.
- Diploma or foundation programs do exist but are limited and may add extra time and cost to Sahil’s education.
- Cost in the USA is high, typically $35,000 - $85,000/year, and diploma pathways may not offer significant advantages for long-term career or study goals.

If Sahil is academically prepared, direct entry to a bachelor's program in the USA is usually more efficient.
