Things to know

No country restriction found.

The $3,000 scholarship figure and most cost figures came from astateglobal.com (A-State's own international portal, linked from astate.edu, but not the astate.edu domain itself) rather than a page confirmed directly on astate.edu - treat as medium confidence until cross-checked. A page titled 'Information for Agent' exists at astate.edu/a/international/future-students/agent/ confirming an agent programme, but it returned a 404 on fetch; named regional agents (e.g. a Vietnam-based agency) appear in other official-adjacent material. No commission percentage found.
