唔該晒你甘詳細o既解答。不過我諗我個問題問得唔好，我指係入學時果條隊，唔係學費o既分別。因local student同international student申請時係分開處理，所以想詳細D知點樣分的。唔該晒你呀。

我們一家人7月頭會移民美國取綠卡, 由於大仔下學年IB最後一年, 他會回港讀十三班, 考完IB才回美國團聚, 我都是同樣問題, 申請大學他是以local student或International student身分. local student若成績一樣是否比較容易入學. 我們會到加州居住而他會申請加州公立大學, 但有些人說要入學兩年後才能付in-state Student Fee.不知是否?我們在加州有屋收租, 每年有報tax filing 同每年都交差不多數仟美元 County Tax. 是否附合要求.

Your case will follow the international queue. In the school application form, it will ask if you are native in English. If your child goes school in HK, then you will have to provide tofel score. That means u r non local student. I completed my high school in Canada but not more than five years of English education environment. All the schools that I applied considered me as international student. I believe each school treat this differently. You should ask your child to call the school directly.

Whether you are an international students or a local US students (as far as application for admission to US colleges is concerned) depends ONLY on the passport you hold.

If you hold an US passport or Green Card, you will be treated as an US applicants, irrespective where you receive your education. For example, if you are a US passport holder, you will be treated as an US applicant even if you study in Hong Kong (for example, QC, QES, KC, DBS, DGS or CIS).

If you do not receive education in US or if your have less than 5 years of instruction in the medium of English, you will be required to submit TOFEL scores (depending on the colleges you apply) to prove your proficiency in English. If you are a US passport holder or if you hold a green card, you are still classified as an US applicant.

Hi Shootastar, 早前到小兒學校參與美國升學講座, 負責人提到最少 4 years of instruction in the medium of English, 就不用TOFEL, 而小兒傱Year 2開始已在(英基)所屬學校上課. 因此不用TOFEL, 但在申請大學時是否要學校出証明信.

In theory your kid does nort need to send a letter to confirm that he has studied in a school using Engklish as a medium for more than 4 years. Your son's councillor can confirm this in his report to the colleges applied for.
However, I suggest your son to take the Tofle. It is not difficult for an IS student to obtain score 110 or more. You can use the score to show your English level in case that your verbal and writing portion of SAT are not good. The college admission tutor will understand that you are not a native speaker and can view your "low" SAT score leniently.

We will move to Los Angeles this summer. Could you please tell me which area has good public high schools? I need to buy a house in order to let my children study in good publich schools. THanks!!

By the way, the information provided here is very good. Thanks so much! It is confirmed we must pay tax in order to enjoy the in-state university fees. My elder girl is Form 3 now, does she need to study any English when she arrives in LA? She studies in St Mary's.

She is successfully into the ENlgish program offered by UCLA that counts 8 units. Do u know are these units tranferrable to one of the universities one day after 3 years?

According to my friends in LA, Arcadia, South Pasadena, are the good public school areas.

To the original poster: different U.S. colleges have different admissions criteria. Some will consider the citizenship, but some don't and only consider the school offerings in that country.
