B 외국인 학교 8학년 미국 상위권 대학 가능성


SSAT 충분히 공부했던 학생들 대다수 미국대학 30위권 이내 진입.

같은 맥락에서 일찍 준비를 시작하는 J OO 학생도 상위권대학 진학 가능성 높아.


과거 SSAT 공부를 충분히 했던 학생들의 미국 대입 결과를 분석해 보면, 대부분의 학생들이 미국 대학 30위권 이내의 대학에 합격하였습니다. 

이유는 7/8학년부터 이미 많은 어휘와 분석적 리딩 기술을 연습했으며, 이러한 것들이 학교 공부와 SAT 학습에도 도움이 되었습니다. 

특히 SAT 학습에 있어 SSAT 공부를 했던 학생과 그렇지 않은 학생의 실력 향상 속도와 고득점 달성에 분명한 차이가 있었습니다.
  
한국 B 외국인 학교 8학년인 J OO 학생도 SAT 수업을 받기 시작했습니다. 미국 뉴저지에서 살았었네요






아직 SAT 공부가 어려워 좌절감을 느낄 수 있기 때문에, Pre-SAT 과정부터 시작합니다.

이렇게 SAT 공부를 일찍 시작한 학생들은 SSAT 를 공부한 후 SAT 수업을 받았던 학생들과 같이 명문대에 진학할 가능성이 높은 것입니다. 

앞으로 있을 Analytical Reading 과 Organized Writing Skill 실력 향상은 고학년 학업과 대학 진학 준비에 많은 영향을 줄 것임을 확신합니다. ~

      COST OF ATTENDANCE


TYPES OF AID

Financial aid is available to all students to help cover the cost of attending Caltech.  There are three main types of aid offered at Caltech:
  • Grants & Scholarships - monetary gifts that are based on demonstrated financial need
  • Work-Study - an allotment of money that needs to be earned each year by working on-campus or at other eligible institutions
  • Loans - borrowed money that will need to be repaid with interest after leaving school

GRANTS & SCHOLARSHIPS

The majority of financial aid awarded to Caltech undergraduates comes from grants.  Grants are considered "gift aid": they do not have to repaid or earned.  Because of this, grants are the most beneficial form of financial aid. 
All scholarships and grants at Caltech are need-based, as the Institute does not have a merit aid program.  Undergraduate students who fill out a financial aid application will be automatically considered for scholarships and grants from Caltech and the federal government.  Grants are also available from state governments, but the application process varies by state.

    Financial Aid: Dean's Scholarships

    Financial aid, in the form of Dean's Scholarships, is awarded to Pre-College students who demonstrate financial need and academic merit. Need is determined by considering several factors, including family income, family size, number of siblings in college, and housing expenses. International students are not eligible for Dean's Scholarships.
