2018年6月28日（周四）18:30到20:30，美国社区学院展示会：让你的留美之旅“物超所值”

社区学院是美国高校的一部分，提供前两年的大学教育和持续的教育机会，可授予学生副学士学位和其它证书。之所以被称作“社区学院”是因为大部分学生来自当地社区。无论规模大小，位于城市或乡村，社区学院都肩负着共同的使命，那就是让更多的人有学习的机会并帮助他们在学业上取得成功。一百多年来，美国的社区学院一直为人民提供廉价优质的高等教育机会。根据美国社区学院协会的统计，全美国大约百分之四十五的本科生是从社区学院开始他们的大学学习的。社区学院学费低廉，但向学生提供了一流的教师、先进的设施、小班化教学和高度的师生互动。社区学院的学费一般只有四年制大学的一半。因此，在社区学院读前两年，然后再转到大学完成后两年的本科学习，总费用将会大大降低。社区学院和四年制大学是由同样的高校认证机构认证的，两者的学术课程秉承了相同的认证标准。因此，社区学院的学生可以将他们的课程学分转到大学。绝大部分社区学院与大学签署了转学协议。只要学生完成了全部要求的前两年课程，州立大学通常会保证这些学生直接入读大三。欢迎所有对赴美留学感兴趣的家长和学生前来参加今年的社区学院展示会，您将有机会和以下八所社区学院的招生官当面咨询。

• Snow College

• Shoreline Community College

• Lane Community College

• San Mateo Colleges Of Silicon Valley

• Santiago Canyon College

• Foothill & De Anza Colleges

June 28, 2018, Thursday, 18:30 - 20:30, Meet community college representatives to find out how you can make your U.S. education more affordable and rewarding!

Community colleges in the United States are higher education intuitions that provide the first two years of a university education. Whether they are large or small, located in big cities or rural settings, community colleges have a common mission to promote and support student learning and success. Established more than 100 years ago, U.S. community colleges offer affordable, convenient, and accessible higher education opportunities. According to the Data of American Association of Community Colleges, about 45% of all undergraduates in the United States begin their higher education studies at community colleges, which are affordable and provide individualized attention. First-rate faculty, a high ratio of teacher-student dialogue and interaction, state-to-the-art facilities, and smaller class sizes are only a few of the characteristics of a U.S. community college education. U.S. community college tuition and fees are more than 50% lower than those at four-year colleges and universities. If you intend to pursue a bachelor’s degree, you can lower the total cost of earning your degree by taking the first two years of a university program at a community college. Because community colleges are accredited by the same regional agencies and their academic courses meet the same standards as universities, students are able to transfer their course credits to a university degree program. Most U.S. community colleges have “articulation” agreements with four-year colleges and universities to assist students to transfer. State universities often guarantee entry as a third-year student if the student has completed all course requirements for the first two years of study. All parents and students interested in studying in the U.S. are welcome to join us in this fair where you can consult face-to-face to the admissions officers from the following eight community colleges:
