请问想了解一下Crystal Springs Uplands School，Menlo School和San Francisco University High School的情况。孩子今年8升9，目前在国际学校，美国护照，想申请旧金山附近比较好的私立走读。在校成绩比较好，六月份的SSAT接近2100。这些学校除了参加面试，之前的校园参观是不是必须呢，因为孩子目前校内课程也挺忙，很难抽出时间去参观校园，但是不知道会不会影响面试和录取。谢谢。
All three are very good schools in California, with high average SAT/ACT scores, low student-teacher ratio, and receive good reviews from parents and students.
Crystal Springs Uplands School no longer offers AP-designated courses, while students are able to sit for AP tests administered on site. 100% of graduates are admitted by 4-year colleges or universities, including Stanford, University of Southern California, UC Berkeley, UC Santa Barbara, Washington University - St Louis, and Northwestern University.
Around 20 AP courses are available at Menlo School. Matriculation to quality colleges like University of Southern California, Southern Methodist University, Tulane University, UC Berkeley and UC Davis.
AP courses are also available at San Francisco University High School. Around 20% of students matriculate to Ivy League, MIT or Stanford.
It’s not a must to have a school visit, while it may give you a clearer picture of the atmosphere, the curriculum and the people there.
