Hi Manik,
As stated earlier, there is no sure shot way to Ivy league as your application has various parameters attached to it. Some suggestions that are to be kept in mind are:
1. Be very clear of the objective of why you wish to attend a particular course in the university applying to.
2. Full scores in SAT and TOEFL/IELTs definitely improve your chances of being accepted.
3. Any innovation/Research/design that contributes to the society or ppl at large is always appreciated by Ivy leagues.
4. Apart from academics, your co curricular profile also needs to be strong enough and should display your leadership skills etc.

Hi,
If there is no counselor at your school, you can name your school principal or any other school official, who has overseen or evaluated your academic progress throughout. This same person will be required to complete the school report on the recommenders and FERPA section.

Jerin,
Kindly, mention which program, Bachelors or Masters?
Also, note that clearing an entrance will not guarantee admission, these are world-class universities and most selective.
You can visit their websites and go through the department pages.

First, you have to register and take admission tests like SAT, ACT TOEFL or IELTS and you have to do really well in these tests, if you are particularly aiming for IVY Leagues.
You have to check the university's website, if they require SAT subject test. You can collect your class 9th, 10th, 11th and 12th grades and SOPs and LORs. The university will also look at your achievements and extra-curricular and finally you can apply to universities of your choice.

It is not mandatory but a necessity to have managerial experience to get admission in top B-Schools in USA. Candidates with 3 to 4 years relevant management experience have better chances in getting admission to MBA and also better chances for placement.

It is hard to say especially for business schools like Stanford or Harvard which are two of the world's most selective universities. Evaluations are done holistically and you must build your profile to fit into these schools. A poor performance in UG will not bar you from getting admitted into these schools if you have the right attitude. Yes, you must work very hard to outshine, a brilliant performance in your PG will not guarantee an admission, you will also require a quality work experience and demonstrate high-level leadership skills which again will not guarantee an admission unless you know why so badly you want to get into these

Current high school students or gap year students aged 16 to 19 years are eligible to apply. So, you can apply. You must also take the TOEFL before applying. SAT or ACT scores are not a requirement for international students but recommended strongly. Please write to the department for specific information.

Tuition fee for international students may range from $30,000 to $50,000 a year if you are talking about Masters. It is advisable if you check the university websites for the fee break-ups, also these are subject to change so always refer the website for updates.
