For starters you need a valid American passport. Next apply for a VISA (not a credit card). Have all your school paper work (records) copied, get the colleges entrance paper work completed. If they will accept you get it in writing and keep it with all your required legal docuemnts. Never give out originals, certified copies only if necessary, never give out an original document. Gurad your documents carefully to prevent identity theft, etc. Have a secure place of residence in advance and be able to prove it before you enter the country. Be able to prove finanical responsibility. Talk to British and American immigration offices here in the US and they will guide you through the system. If possible find a friend in England, someone who lives there and can discuss issues with you. Pick you up at Heathrow Airport and get you to your new place of residence quickly and safely. If you've never been there and can afford it, take a trip there and sort of learn you're way around. They speak english but they are a lot different than Americans. If you can you're better off living and learning in Ireland, things are better and cheaper and the people are a 100 times more friendly. And if you can manage it, live on the east coast of Ireland, Waterford, etc., it's a quick cheap ferry ride to England. Check it out carefully before you make the actual move. Leaving your own country and living in a foreign land is not what you think it might be just because they speak the same language.

Answer 4
Get into to college first. after that go to the nearest British Embassy or, preferably, check the website for the embassy and see what you need to do. To go to Spain the embassy answered all of my questions

Answer 5
Contact the UK consulate nearest you, or the Embassy. They'll be able to tell you what the requirements are. You aren't going to get into the UK as anything other than a tourist unless you're accepted to university first, so you might want to start out by finding out about schools in Greater London, and which one interests you, and the requirements for entrance. Work permits are iffy--you'd be better off directing this question to the Embassy. They may have a program where they allow college kids to work. No offense, but if you really want to become (one M, FWIW) an actress/singer/writer, London isn't the FIRST place people go to do that sort of thing. The Mecca for that is Los Angeles, actually, for film work, and New York for the dying stage. The people who have reached the PINNACLE in London run like hell to...CALIFORNIA. It's only old has-beens like Madonna who head for London....hoping that the paparazzi will follow her to boost her sagging career.....and now that she's dumped that husband, she'll be off to somewhere with a warmer climate for her older bones....and fresher meat....
