First, the super springboard, into the prestigious school.
Transferring from a community college to a first-class university in the United States has been an effective, effective and gradual choice for a large number of students. The largest transfer counseling institution in the United States counsels thousands of students from community colleges to Berkeley, Los Angeles, UIUC, Purdue University, University of Michigan, University of Washington, Johns Hopkins University and so on every year. All these students are grateful for the opportunities brought to them by community colleges and educational institutions. If you directly apply for freshmen from these prestigious schools, it is almost impossible for mainland students to be admitted. There are many inter-school connection agreements in community colleges, among which Seattle Community College School District and Johns Hopkins University Business School have transfer agreements, and students can transfer as long as their grades reach 3.5.
Second, save time.
Go straight to college without finishing high school. In the joint reading plan of high schools and universities, more than 16 people can enter the freshman year.
Third, the transfer is protected by legislation.
Public four-year universities in the United States accept the quota of graduates from community colleges, which is guaranteed by law. For example, the California Education Law stipulates that all public four-year universities in California must accept at least one-third of students transferred from community colleges, including Berkeley, Los Angeles, San Diego and other extended systems (UC system) and California State system (Cal State). Washington, Virginia and Wisconsin have similar laws.
Fourth, there is no quota limit for transferring to a prestigious school.
There are no international places for transfer students, especially China students. This is mainly because the proportion of domestic students is small. At least no state is outstanding in this respect. As for directly applying for freshman admission, almost all the top 60 universities have strict requirements on the number and proportion of domestic students.
Fifth, there is no need for TOEFL.
You don't need to take TOEFL, you don't need any language to enroll in American community colleges, and then you can transfer. Many schools don't need TOEFL either. For example, community colleges in California do not need TOEFL to transfer to the university system in California.
Sixth, there is no need for SAT.
Admission to American community colleges, including later transfer, never requires taking the SAT or SAT. When you transfer to another school in the United States, as long as you finish your freshman class, you don't need SAT scores.
Seventh, small class teaching is easy to improve scores.
Community colleges never have hundreds of classes. Take Xie Lan Community College, a famous community college in Seattle, as an example. The largest class has about 40 students. And if it's some undergraduate courses in Pennsylvania State, it's normal for more than 500 people to be in the same classroom. It is easier to get high marks when entering American community colleges. This is mainly because many American students have low academic qualifications, so there are many students with high GPA in China.
Eighth, the tuition is low.
Although it can almost be said that China students do not come to community colleges for cheap, even the tuition fees of community colleges, plus the annual academic counseling fees of experts from educational institutions, are probably less than half of those of the University of Pittsburgh. Many families studying abroad are also self-righteous working families, so it is best to spend their money in effective places.
Ninth, double the internship period.
If you get a two-year degree in the United States, you can practice in the United States for one year, and you can practice for another year after graduation. As we all know, it is difficult to find a job in America, especially in liberal arts and business. If you have one more year of internship experience, it will not only help you find a job and apply for a work visa in the future, but also increase it several times.
Tenth, escort.
There are experts from American professional education institutions to help students improve. The counselor system can help you improve your academic performance, complete your resume according to the transfer requirements, and transfer to a prestigious school smoothly after two years.
