Why do families with conditions now let their children study in the United States? How to get there? Frequently asked questions of Beijing Limai Sino-American International School: 1. Why did you choose to study in America? 1, major choice: in the United States, freshmen and sophomores are all general education (there are no major courses, only public courses), and juniors choose their major according to their interests and grades, and only one paper is needed to apply for changing majors. More than 90% of American college students have changed their majors. 2. Mutual recognition of credits: More than 4,000 universities in the United States recognize credits for public courses, and high flyers of Harvard also went to community colleges to study credits. 3. Freedom of transfer: 100% community college major 100%. Second, why choose Limai? Limai Sino-American (International) School was founded in 1993, with more than 20 years' experience in running schools and superior geographical location. A strong team of teachers and joint teaching by Chinese and foreign teachers can help students adapt to western education in advance and narrow cultural differences. Small class teaching, interactive teaching among students, each class 15 students, so that every student has full access to Chinese and foreign teachers. In addition to studying basic courses, the school also strengthens social practice, survival training and international exchanges, and really pays attention to the cultivation of students' comprehensive ability. Does it matter if you study in your country for two years without a high school diploma? In China, if you want to go to college, you must graduate from high school and get a high school diploma before you can take the traditional college entrance examination. This is an ongoing research project. If your child can go to a school in Washington State in the future, * * * in Washington State can issue an American high school diploma. In fact, if you have a bachelor's degree from a four-year university in the United States, no matter whether students are looking for a job in the United States or returning to work in the future, they only need a college diploma. 4. What should our children do if they can't adapt in America? Do you have a teacher to supervise you? You may think your child is young now, but we will go to America in two years. In the past two years, students will board in Lima to cultivate their self-care ability and lay the foundation for future American life. After two years, the children will certainly be more mature and able to adapt to American life. Moreover, after the children go to the United States, the school will regularly contact the teachers inside to pay a return visit to the children's situation, and the school will also start to set up the American workplace in the near future to do the later work. 5. Parents: Is the community college a diploma workshop? Of course, community colleges are not diploma workshops, and diploma workshops cannot be found on domestic education websites. The community colleges we cooperate with are all found on education websites. Moreover, community colleges in the United States are all public colleges, which are all funded by * * *. 6. Where did you live when you went? Most of them have no dormitory. Will it be unsafe? It is suggested that students can live in school dormitories or host families, cultivate students' oral English, have the ability to take care of themselves and learn American culture from American families. Parents' safety problems are mainly concentrated in big cities, and almost all schools are in small towns. It's quiet here, the public security is good, and the safety of children need not be considered. 7. Parents: What are the basic necessities of life in America? Can you rest assured? The overall quality of life in the United States is very guaranteed, and the specific situation is closely related to the location of the school. The quality of American food is no problem most of the time. The food culture is quite different from that in China. Students adapt to the nutritional needs of American foods, such as salads and boiled vegetables. If you live off campus, you don't have time to cook every day most of the time. There are usually many restaurants around the school for students to improve their food. In schools in the town, traffic will be inconvenient and travel will be more troublesome. People who go to bigger towns have to go out by car for a long time, which is inconvenient for shopping, and life will be boring. Many schools have only one school in the whole town, which is very comfortable but will be boring after a long time. When you first arrive at school, you can ask the seniors in our school for help, and it is easy to get used to it. If you stay, you can choose to live on campus or rent your own house. According to your personal choice, the conditions are not bad. Schools in the city have convenient transportation and many recreational facilities. The relative price is also higher and the cost is higher. Eight, parents: children's self-control and self-care ability is not high, is it not suitable for going abroad at the undergraduate level? Every child begins to grow up under the protection of his parents. Before studying abroad, many children have strong dependence and weak self-management ability, but with the growth of age and rich life experience, they will gradually improve. Living independently in the United States will inevitably experience many setbacks and various difficult exits, thus exercising children's perseverance and problem-solving ability. No matter in domestic universities or American universities, they have to leave their parents and home, and college life will inevitably put forward new requirements and challenges for children. University is a stage that emphasizes autonomous learning, which may require higher self-control and self-care ability. Children and parents should adapt to this new requirement, even if there are some difficulties at first, they will make progress after a while. American universities are fast-paced, with many activities such as exams, homework and papers, and the arrangement is very compact, which may be more stressful than studying in universities in China. This is a test for children with poor self-control. If you can't improve your self-management ability, it may affect your sleep health and so on. So you need to choose a school that suits you, a course that suits you, and a learning style that suits you. 9. Parents: Is it appropriate for children to go abroad for undergraduate or graduate studies? Undergraduate study abroad will be easier to integrate into the American cultural environment than graduate students. Undergraduates going abroad for four years will have great advantages over postgraduates, and it will be easier for them to adapt to life. In addition, from the ideological point of view, it is easier for undergraduates to accept American ideas when they go abroad, and they can have more ideas and choices when they start thinking about various problems. When they first enter the university, children will think about many issues, including future development and personal pursuit. Most graduate students go abroad ideologically, so it will be difficult to accept American-style concepts and new ideas, and because of their strong professionalism, graduate students will have fewer contacts than undergraduates. 10. What is the cost of going abroad? Can children work outside to earn money? How much can the scholarship be given? American higher education is one of the most expensive countries in the world. The average private university has an annual tuition and living expenses of at least $56,000. Plus round-trip air tickets, personal expenses such as fun and travel when life is not too frugal, at least 70 thousand dollars. Studying in a public university costs at least $50,000. Generally speaking, in the absence of scholarships, parents need to prepare 350,000 to 450,000 RMB financial aid for their children every year. There are two ways to reduce the family burden, one is to work, and the other is to get a scholarship. According to American law, international students are not allowed to work outside the school during their study, so generally speaking, students can only accept the employment of the school and do some on-campus work with the minimum wage. Here we suggest trying to find a job as a teaching assistant or research assistant. This type of work can help you understand a subject deeply and keep a good relationship with professors. How much have you learned in America compared with domestic universities? The difference in teaching quality is an important reason why many China students choose to study in the United States. Over the years, after the large-scale enrollment expansion, and because of the defects in the administrative management system of colleges and universities, the phenomenon of uneven and shoddy teaching quality in colleges and universities in China has become more and more obvious. From the most basic point of view, professors should care whether students have really learned something and gained new ideas. However, in today's higher education in China, it is difficult to find such a professor. In the United States, this is an educational ethics that has been practiced for centuries. Many foreign students can recall how the university teacher carefully revised every word of the paper. It is also a common sight for professors and students to discuss and explore together in class. Undoubtedly, compared with most China universities, American universities can really learn more. 12. What does Lima study? In the two-year course of Limai School, I will study ESL course and foreign teachers' oral English course first, so as to cultivate students' comprehensive English ability, bring students something irrelevant to the educational model and concept, and improve students' oral English and cross-cultural communication ability. Second, China Senior One Course: Strengthening the Foundation of Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry. The third quality development course: golf, field training camp, personal career planning, civilized etiquette knowledge, safety first aid knowledge. The unemployment rate in the United States is high. Is it difficult to find a job? The United States itself is the largest economy in the world and the most developed country. If the unemployment rate in such a country is high, I believe other countries will not be much better. In addition, the global economy follows the United States. If the US economy declines, so will the EU or other countries. In America, if you study hard and graduate smoothly, it is not difficult to find a job. 14. what are the advantages of transferring to a famous American school compared with directly applying to a famous American school? Compared with directly applying for a prestigious American school, applying for transfer through an associate degree has the following advantages: earlier: 16-year-old students who have finished senior one can start applying faster; There is no need to prepare for TOEFL SAT for a long time in China, which not only saves time, but also relieves pain. Better: it greatly increases the chances of students entering famous schools. Students with a TOEFL score of 80 or above in China and an IELTS score of 6.5 or a score of 30 or above in key counties in this province can basically reach the goal of the top 30 universities in the United States. Happier: enter the American educational environment as soon as possible and really enjoy learning.

Yesterday, the exchange rate of RMB against the US dollar was around 6.72, while 1 month ago it was 6.82.
