But don't necessarily rule out American public, land-grant universities, which are generally not in major, major cities. They offer a great deal of financial aid, often have more student employment positions available (and public universities DO like to hire their own students rather than outsource), often have highly-ranked programs in a variety of fields, and, again unlike major cities, have a much more affordable cost-of-living.
Additionally, my university has an amazing Office of Minority Affairs, from what I've heard from friends that can take advantage of it. They offer three tiers of scholarships, both need- and merit-based. So, if you have good grades leaving your present college and can prove you are independent of your parents and not earning a great income, you can get almost your entire education paid for.
Like the Ausfag said, relatively easy to study here but tough as hell to immigrate, although I highly doubt that'll be a problem for OP as s/he mentioned wanting to go back to South Africa at some point.
