美国公立高中排名美国公立高中介绍美国的公立中学由政府资助供当地学生就读,不需费用。
美国法律规定,美国的公立中学只允许接受短期的外国交换学生,法定的最长时限为一年;公立学校不得接受外国申请者作为独立的学生身份在公立学校长期学习。
国际学生如果到美国高中就读,可申请以交换生的身份在公立高中学习。
但美国公立高中对外籍学生的学习时间是有限制的,最多一年。
但从08年开始,一项针对国内高二在读学生的留学新项目将为中国留学生提供一条新的留学美国之路。
今年秋季开始,中国学生可以持F-1签证进入波士顿、西雅图、芝加哥、凤凰城、犹他州等地区的11所美国公立高中之中的一所就读,毕业后拿到美国高中毕业证的同时,学生还能直接进入美国的大学。
据行业留学专家介绍,近年来随着美国留学的不断升温,希望前往美国就读高中的中国学生数量也在不断增加,其中多数只能前往美国私立高中就读。
而以往的交流学生项目,学生只能在美国停留一年,持J-1签证,并且即使前往就读高三,学生也较难获得美国高中毕业证。
因此这次新推出的持F-1签证就读美国公立高中的项目,无疑对广大希望l留美的中国高中学生来说是个重大利好。
目前共有11所招收持F-1签证中国学生的美国公立学校可供选择,届时学生将安排在当地的接待家庭当中,有利于尽快适应当地生活。
值得一提的是,这11所学校在读的亚洲籍学生百分比都在10%左右,仍有一定数量的学位提供,目前这些学校都已经开始今年秋季入学的招生工作。
在申请条件方面,学生须拥有40分以上的SLEP(母语为非英语国家学生赴美读初、高中的英语能力测验)成绩。
费用约为2万美元至2万5千美元每学年,其中包括学费、住宿费、当地协调安排费以及监护人费。
需要注意的是,由于学校所发给学生的I-20表格(即留学生的“资格证书”)有效期仅为一年,因此如果学生选择去就读11年级的话,那一年之后学生将转学去一所私立学校就读12年级;而如果学生选择去就读12年级的话,那一年之后学生则可以进入美国高校就读大一。
