10升10学位不多，择校需要多⽅⾯考虑，希望孩⼦找到适合⾃⼰的学校，尽早申请。
如果申9，可以考虑加州的⼤学预备学院，本特利中学，⾦博联合学院，庞弗雷特中学，
需要考托福和SSAT，希望您的孩⼦找到喜欢的学校。
当然，择校是需要多⽅⾯考虑，希望您找到适合⾃⼰的学校，尽早申请。
建议先考托福，可以测试孩子的英语水平，要申请好的美⾼，托福成绩是必要条件之一。希望孩子找到适合的学校，尽早申请。
培训班和外教已经足够，不必给孩子太大压力。可以多跟孩子说英语，家长的支持和辅导也是很重要的。
切记：1.不要问官网能找到答案的问题（比如“你们学校多少人”“体育活动有啥选择”）。
2.不要问理念有冲突或者人家真没法回答的问题（比如说“进了你们学校，我儿子进哈佛⼤大学几率有多大”。
3.不要问“你们今年多少人进了藤校”。
总的来说，不要让学校觉得你对他们一无所知。如果能够让招生官感觉到家长和学生的诉求确实是学校能够满足的，并且学生在校园里会变成不可或缺的一员，就更完美了。当然这需要有一些技巧，并且前期做一些功课。
招生官最喜欢听到家长问的问题就是：作为家长，我如何帮助学校支持我的孩子的成长？我可以参加学校的什么活动？我怎么加入学校的家长会？（How do I support the school
community? What can I do to get involved? How do I join the PTA?）等等这类表达出强烈想要支持学校的问题。
好的高中，师资强，课程丰富合理，教学设施完善，学习氛围好，毕业生走向也不会差。
当然，如果去到一般的高中，孩子独立、有目标，加上顾问老师的课外辅导，也有可能考
上顶尖大学。
择校需要对孩子有进一步的认识，这几门课学校都有，家长不用担心。进入好的学校，需要孩子有不错的学校考试成绩，标化成绩，面试成绩，课外活动获奖经历，还要看您对学校环境的要求。希望孩子申请到匹配的学校。

US schools stress BOTH academics as well as extracurricular activities. They want students who are well rounded and have the followings:
High level of English
-Good grades
-Good test scores
-Outstanding extracurricular activities
-Good interview
-Good essays
They would also like to see students who have initiative, have leadership skills, are able to make friends easily, is strong academically, and speaks and write English well.
To prepare for the interviews, read more English books and watch a lot of US TV, talk to a lot of students who are native English speakers, go to summer school, etc.
-Academic scores
-Students diversity
-Extracurricular Activities
-Sports performance
-Art performance
-Teachers’ quality and engagement
-Culture & Safety
So the ranking generally is different between Chinese and US rankings. They stress more on different things.

她5月剛籤的旅行簽證，8月換簽F-1，會不會拒簽？ 8月初遞交表格，能預約到8月份的面籤時間嗎？
No. Hard to say. There are a lot of students going abroad to the US to study. I suggest you give yourself more time.
像她這種12歲的小留，面試會問哪些問題？請不吝賜教，叩謝！
Some of the questions here are applicable. But not all since the student is only in middle school.

Other great schools in Seattle include Lakeside School, the Bush School, and Seattle Academy.
These schools have decent to high average SAT/ACT scores. Matriculation to quality colleges like Brown University, Cornell University, New York University, Stanford University, and University of Washington.
However, if the English standard is not that good, then the earlier you go to school in the US, the better. If your English is good, then G9 is ok since you can spend the time getting used to the curriculum and the way of teaching in the first year, then you start to run afterwards. But if the English standard is not good, you cannot even walk and so the more time that you have the better.
我看到網上說這個學校的中國學生多，這樣是不是不利於孩子提高英文水平?
Learning a language is up to the student. Some students try really hard to spend more time with non-Chinese students while others do not. Please encourage your child to spend more time with native English speakers. That is the least that he/she can do given that you have given them such a great opportunity and it is such a privilege. Many of the boarding schools have Chinese students so it is up to the child whether they want to get to another level. And this kind of drive is what the colleges want to see in a student when they apply.
還有一所Linden Hall 林頓女子中學怎麼樣？畢業生走向如何？看網上說也是中國學生多，是這樣嗎？謝謝老師們。
It’s a decent school in Pennsylvania, with decent SAT scores. Matriculation to colleges like University of Pennsylvania, Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University - Daytona Beach, and Drexel University.
BUT the FIT is also really important. A student will naturally do better if she likes the school and get a better chance to get into the top colleges. So hard to say which school is better for your child.
Honesty
Ability
Background
St. Andrew’s School, RI: It’s an average school in Rhode Island. Low student-teacher ratio (5:1). Matriculation to colleges like Boston University, New York University and University of Miami.
Hoosac School, NY: Decent school with decent matriculation rate to quality colleges. They pride themselves in “energizing the "passion" in a student whether it be Academic, the Arts or Athletics and helping them to reach their fullest potential”.
Northwood School, NY: The student to teacher ratio is lower than average. The school has average SAT scores and the students matriculate to colleges like Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute (RPI), Syracuse University, Wesleyan University and Boston University.
Webb School TN: It’s one of the top schools with best academics in Tennessee, with high average SAT scores. High matriculation rate to colleges such as University of Tennessee, Vanderbilt University, and Duke University.
Darlington School GA: The school has an above average SAT scores. It offers a wide range of extracurricular activities for students and explore their interests. High matriculation rate to colleges like University of Georgia, Georgia Institute of Technology, and Vanderbilt University.
Rabun Gap-Nacoochee School: It’s a very diverse school. Matriculation to colleges like University of Georgia, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and Vanderbilt University. This school is also one of the only schools in the country with a cirque program (They have an impressive array of apparatuses, including trapeze, German wheel, aerial silks, Aerial Hoop, Spanish web, and many more. Each spring, the school puts on a cirque performance and packs the Rearden Theater for four sold-out performances).
Flint Hill is a decent school with average SAT scores. Matriculation to colleges like The University of Alabama, American University, and Boston University. It’s a diverse school ethnically.
2.選擇Flint Hill之後，在學業、生活、訓練、高中規化方面有哪些建議
Academic, most students from China do not need to worry about their grades. The only academic worry is English. You need to be running as soon as you get there so that you can deal with the English and history courses. Since it is a homestay program, you might want to make sure that your child gets enough or extra food. Spend more time at the school so he or she can spend more time with his or her peers. Don’t only study but try and make friends who are NOT Chinese from PRC.
3.WL是否繼續等待? 4.是否需要考慮9升10的寄宿校申請?
Depends on the school. Why don’t you go to Flinthill first and then decide what to do after the first 2 months. That will give you another month to work on the applications. Since the student will already be in the US, arranging for interviews would not be as difficult. The reason is because all the top schools want students to be fluent in English, which means that the extra year at Flint Hill would be an advantageous opportunity to learn more English.
These schools provide a great learning environment and they offers wide variety of extracurriculars and athletics programs for you to explore your child’s interests and discover his or her passions.
2. Not all, but most top schools would consider TOEFL and SSAT.
3. Understood that you have quite some interests, while do realize that when you apply for the school, it is important that whatever you do, the schools can see your passion. Meaning that if you play tennis, they will want to see prizes you’ve won, how your sports teachers are very supportive of your efforts. Keep that up and many of the schools will be interested.
1) Holton-Arms School
2) McDonogh School
3) Bryn Mawr School

2) TOEFL Scores
3) School grades
4) Extracurricular Activities
5) Whether the student is interested in a large or small school, and city or country school.
So you would need more of the information above to choose the right schools for your daughter.

2、fs的學校介紹和學校的圖片拿來參考是不是也可以？
Yes FS is very good with the explanations
3、是否可以在面試的同時進行訪校，比如提前幾天去或者別的方式，也請大家給一些建議
Usually the tour comes before the interview so you have something to talk about. You can also do the tour a few days early but you need to let the school know. Suggest that you tour the school before and not after the interview.
4、訪校對學校最終的錄取有沒有非常重要的作用
Depends on the school.
Yes your child will be too old. Schools do not want to see students that are that much older than their peers. You can be a few months old than 15 years old when you enter G9, but not too much more. However you should also ask the school about this when you apply as different schools have different requirements.
I recommend that you go to a less competitive US school this year to study G8. That way you can improve on the English more quickly than if your child stayed in China, even at an international school.
I don’t understand your comment about Vericant - Interviewers for Vericant work for the company and not for the schools.

5) Whether the student is interested in a large or small school, and city or country school.
When the student is applying to universities, it is important that whatever the student does, the schools can see his or her passion. Meaning that if the student plays the piano, they will want to see prizes in the school, how the piano/music teachers are very supportive of her efforts. This applies not only to extracurricular activities, but also to academics as well as community services. Keep that up and many of the schools will be interested in the student.

Normally each class would have one textbook. Sometimes the subject teacher may not require you to bring the textbook to class. There are also classes that have open book exams. So it all depends on the teacher and the subject.
In the US, kids do not use pulling luggage. Most kids would use backpacks. So if you don’t want to look different than other students, suggest you use a backpack that has good support for the back.
For SSAT, many schools will ONLY take the results from the same academic year starting September.
Regarding the curriculum, the school offers the IB Diploma, the French Baccalaureate diploma, and the American diploma.

2. One of the benefits of boarding schools is that the student is able to spend evenings with their friends, such as birthday parties, events in the dorms, etc. This way they have a venue to practice their English every night so they can improve more quickly.
