Every year when the college entrance exam results are released, some families rejoice while others grieve. But did you know that for families with a well-thought-out plan, the college entrance exam is never the only path to their child's education?
Why are more and more families choosing to plan their children's education both domestically and internationally?
Parents are well aware of how fierce the competition for educational resources is in China. From school district housing to extracurricular classes, from the middle school entrance exam's specialization to the fierce competition for the college entrance exam, every step causes anxiety for parents.
However, with advance planning, there are actually many educational paths available for children:
Take the international route and apply to prestigious overseas universities
With Hong Kong residency, children can take university entrance exams as local Hong Kong students, which significantly increases their chances of admission.
Obtain overseas status, take the Joint Entrance Examination for Overseas Chinese Students, and score 400 to get into a 985/211 university.
Studying abroad from primary or secondary school allows students to adapt to overseas education systems in advance.
The key is to plan ahead. Many parents only start thinking about other paths when their children are in the final year of junior high or senior high school, by which time their choices are already very limited.
What exactly does overseas and domestic education planning entail?
1. Pathway Design: Based on the child's age, learning situation, family budget, and goals, we design the most suitable educational path. Should it be international school + overseas university? Or Hong Kong residency + local university admission? Or the Joint Entrance Examination for Overseas Chinese Students? The timelines and preparations for different paths are completely different.
2. Status Requirement: Many educational pathways require specific status requirements. For example, if you want your child to take the university entrance exam as a local Hong Kong student, you need to plan for Hong Kong residency in advance; if you want to take the Joint Entrance Examination for Overseas Chinese Students, you need to meet the overseas residency requirements. Obtaining residency takes time, so advance planning is essential.
3. School Application : We provide full support throughout the entire process, from international school selection and entrance interview coaching to overseas university applications, essay writing, and interview preparation. The Baiyue team is familiar with the application requirements for major study abroad destinations such as Hong Kong, the UK, the US, Australia, and Singapore.
4. Overseas Settlement Support: Sending your child abroad to study doesn't end with receiving an offer. Arrangements for accommodation, bank account opening, medical insurance, academic support, holiday planning… all these require support from someone on-site. Parkway's global service network can provide ongoing care for your child after they settle overseas.
Planning priorities for different age groups
Preschool/Lower Primary Years : This is the golden period for planning, allowing ample time to choose an international school or plan immigration status.
Upper elementary/middle school : It's time to determine the general direction – whether to pursue a domestic or international path – and to begin immigration planning.
High school stage : Time is tight, the main focus is on college applications and short-term feasible pathways.
Undergraduate Stage : Focusing on Graduate School Applications, Overseas Employment, and Status Change
