    Most universities in the US require foreign applicants to take an English as a second language test, such as the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) or the International English Language Testing System (IELTS), and Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT) exams for undergraduates or the Graduate Record Examination. Then you should rent, probably with someone else, in order to save more money to buy a house.

Nevertheless, it’s a good idea to check with local authorities or the Department of Planning and Natural Resources in the Virgin Islands for any recent updates or regulations regarding household cleaning products.

    As a US citizen, you typically don't need any special papers or visas to move to the US Virgin Islands. Since they are a US territory, US citizens have the right to live and work there freely without needing additional immigration paperwork. However, it's a good idea to have some form of identification with you when traveling, such as a valid driver's license or passport, especially for official purposes.
