3/13 Seminar 本周日讲座: 华夏家长分享教育、大学申请心得

Seminar Hostess:  Shirley Zeng
时间:三月十三日上午 9:30-11:30

华夏大纽约家长尹永义博士将和家长们一起探讨教育孩子的一些经验,尤其是针对高中生的暑期学习和课外活动,初中生的前期准备,以及小学生兴趣的培养等。尹永义博士复旦大学毕业,是美国工程学博士,多年服务于教育机构,擅长于大中小学生教学工作,他的多位学生已被多所美国著名的的常春藤大学和私立初高中录取,他自己的孩子也在国际英特尔科学竞赛中进入决赛。本周末他也会和大家分享一些成功和失败的经验。希望家长们踊跃参加并参与讨论。

大学助学金申请是很多家长关心的话题。大学每年以6-7%速度增长,许多中国人家长对申请大学助学金缺乏了解又有许多误解(误区),导致没有拿到助学金或只拿到较少的助学金。在本周日讲座的第二部分请我校家长David Che博士分享他自己孩子申请大学奖学金以及多年来帮助其他家庭的经验。一些常见家长问题:什么是CSS Profile?FAFSA? 是不是对所有学校都适用?到底对于中产家庭来说,除了存满401k, Roth 401k, 还能往哪存钱,将来能取出来用于教育,不会影响Financial Aid? 投资房产对申请Financial Aid有影响吗? 一方父母在Junior Year辞职对申请奖学金有什么帮助吗?
