Next year I want to study Music Technology/Production in USA?
In August next year I will have finished college here in the UK and have a BTEC National Extended diploma level 3 in music technology and would like to go on to further education in the USA not in the UK, Could anyone give me some information about doing this? Costs, different places, websites etc. Thanks a bunch!

Your first issue here is that to go on to further education in the USA, you're going to need A Levels. A BTEC diploma is not recognised as a qualification anywhere outside the UK and therefore all you have to go off in GCSEs which won't get you into many, if any, colleges in the US.
You will have to do some research into the best universities for whatever course you wish to study yourself but studying in the USA costs crazy amounts as an international student. Unless you can get some sort of scholarship, you're going to have to pay for travel, insurance, visas, living costs, accommodation, tuition (which is more expensive for international students), medical fees and an awful lot of other things. You won't get the normal student loan like you would over here in the UK because you're not a US citizen.
Sorry to burst your bubble but it would maybe be a better idea getting a few more qualifications here, saving up some serious amounts of money and then pursuing your plans to live/work across the pond!
