想爬藤的话,那所学校是最好选择?
Future in IVY league:
Those of these five schools all send over 35% of their senior class to IVY, MIT, or Stanford University. Even when Phillips Exeter Academy (one of the most famous and best New England Boarding School) sends 30% of their senior class to IVY league universities. Out of these 5 schools, Trinity school has the highest, 42%, percentage of sending students to IVY schools.
这五个学校入读长春藤的比率都超过35% 如麻省理工学院和斯坦福大学。即使菲利普斯埃克塞特学院(其是著名的和最好的新英格兰寄宿学校)也只有达到30%的入取率。这5所学校, Trinity school纽约三一学校是最高达到42%。也就是说基本要素之一是学生成绩排名必须保持在同年级中前35名,才有可能获得长春藤联盟的大学的青睐。
Hi,
Thank you for your question.
Sorry for the late response. I wanted to check on their current admission situation so I've called and talked to the admission officers.
Out of Trinity, Collegiate, Brearley, Horace Mann, and Dalton, Horace Mann is the only school that is interested in taking international students and it's the only school that gives I-20.
Trinity School, Collegiate School, Brearley School, Horace Mann, and Dalton School are all very good day schools that run from K-12 in NY State. All of these schools are very hard to get into even as an American resident. Most of these schools do not give out I-20 form, which you need to apply for student Visa F1, and only accept residents of NY, CT, NJ, or other states close by. To apply to these schools, the student and parents need to be American residents.
So if you are not American resident, you might want to think of other day schools that provide I-20 or boarding schools near New York.
These five schools are open for applications only for 9th grade for high school (regardless of international or domestic residents), and if the students want to apply for 10&11th grade, they will be wait listed, and they don't accept students in 12th grade.
The only international students that are currently in their school are ones that the family moved to NY and has residence card.
Also, most of the 9th grade students just move up from 8th grade within the same school so opening space for new student is very slim.
Coed vs. Single Sex School
In Single Sex Schools, many students find it easier to focus on academics when they aren’t distracted by members of the opposite sex. Others may find it easier to participate actively in classes where everyone is the same sex. Research studies show that girls aged 11 to 18 years do better in math and the sciences at single sex schools. Boys do better at many subjects. Although it may be easier for students to participate actively and do well academically at a single sex institution, the real world is not single sex. It may prove difficult for students from single sex schools to adjust to a co-ed work atmosphere after they graduate.
男女混合学校或纯男校、纯女校
在纯男生与纯女生的学校,学生更容易专注于学业,而不是在异性同学的目光议题上。更甚是同性似乎更容易更自然地积极参与课程活动。研究报告,11岁到18岁的女孩在纯女校中学业上,对于数学和科学上更上心。纯男校的男孩在许多科目上,有更好的学业成绩。尽管学生增加积极度和强化了学习力;但在单一的性别的学校里,我们了解世界不是单一性别组成,真实的世界是两性协调的,男校或女校学生可能在毕业后对于两性活动的氛围需要调节适应。
