FAQ
It takes students four years to finish high school study in the U.S. from grade 9 to 12
(equivalent to
the last year in junior high school to the end of senior high school in China). Because
education
regulations and policies differ across states, there is no general standard to evaluate
high schools in
the U.S. However, you can refer to authorized ranking institutions, such as Niche and
Business Insider.
Public schools charge less for tuitions, but most of them do not provide accommodations.
Most public
high schools only accept international students for the one-year exchange program.
Public high schools
are usually larger in scale and less difficult to apply for.
Private high schools have higher tuition fees, some of which are full-time boarding schools. Some leading private high schools have very limited admission quota and the competition is fierce. Public high schools usually cost approximately $35,000 a year; while private high schools cost around $50,000 a year (including tuition, room and board, and other expenses).

American high schools value interviews very much, and the student’s performance during
the interview
usually determines the admission results. At the same time, the school will also conduct
holistic review
on the students' extracurricular activities and special skills.
Most high schools in the U.S. take interview as one of their essential evaluations and
interviews are
usually carried out via Skype or a third-party institution. If available, you can also
schedule an
on-site interview as well as a campus visit, which will be a good opportunity to develop
an in-depth
understanding of the school itself, and leave a deep impression on admission officers.
In principle, it is appropriate for students to enroll between Grade 9-10 . In the 9th
grade, students
will adapt themselves to the new environment and improve their English. In the 10th
grade, they will
start to study AP courses and enrich their extracurricular activities. In the 11th
grade, they will
maintain good academic records and begin preparing for the TOEFL and SAT exams, and get
ready for the
college application. Most high schools in the U.S. do not accept application for the
12th grade.
The private high schools in the United States are around high-income neighborhoods, and
the security is
in good condition, so it is totally unnecessary for parents to worry about the safety of
their children.
Choosing a homestay family is not an easy task. The first thing to consider is the
English-speaking
environment. The United States is a diversified immigrant country with residents from
all over the
world. Therefore, it is better to choose English-speaking host families, which will help
your children
improve their English proficiency. Secondly, the background of the host family should be
fully
investigated to ensure it matches the students’ needs.
