At the moment I am considering going to University in America. I am interested in taking a degree in Film Directing. I think that the best schools for this kind of thing are in America. Does anyone know what sort of education I can expect over there. Any information about the College system would be a BIG help!

For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.This is probably unhelpful but if you actually want to be a film director, a degree in Film Directing will get you no where. You'd be better not going to uni and getting out there and apprenticing yourself to some directors, working as a runner on sets etc. Or going to uni and doing something to do with Scripts and Plays so that you can hone your skills in appreciating scripts and getting artistic vision from them...
If you want to go to uni in America I believe you also need to do SATs - they are tricky and you have toi pay to do them. You'll need these on top of your A Levels.
On the plus side, many of them will offer good grants which can help you get out there.

There are at least four American schools in the London area where you could do SATs. if necessary , but they are all fee paying establishments.There is ASL ( St Johns Wood) ACS ( Hillingdon, Cobham, Egham ) TASIS ( Thorpe in Surrey) we were sent a flier from some of these for summer holiday courses last year
