回復 ivyscyip 的帖子
Thank you for your sharing.
My comment was made according to my observation on my S and D's matriculation lists. My point is that if you are holding an US passport or green card, you will be classified as domestic applicants and if you do not have such documents, you are a foreign applicants.
I think whether MIT, Harvard, Yale, Princeton, Stanley or other Ivies or equivalents would set a quota (although they said no) for the foreign students.When compared with my S and D's statistics with their classmates (i.e. SAT 2,200+ , 3 SAT (780+), GPA 3.9 from a competitive local international school, persistent commitments on services (about 300 hours throughout high school period), strong leadership posts (service team and sport captain) for 2 years, school sport team members for 3 years, NHS, excellent recommendations from counsellors plus 2 teachers, regrettably, they did not receive any offers. (Each of them submitted 3 applications to Ivies or equivalent). Whereas, their classmates of similar statistics were admitted by Ivies or their equivalents. I therefore have the conclusion that the difference is the type of their passports. Most (but not all) of them hold US passports. For thosee who do not have US passports, they were winner of competition of a national level.
I have a friend whose two Ds were admitted to MIT based on their local curriculum but they were born in the US.
If I know you earlier, I would consider sending my kids to the US boarding school.
