2. It’s practically a scene on American television. A baby is born. Friends and family offer t
heir congratulations. But then, in the car from the hospital, a deep worry falls over the parents. “How in the world are we going to pay for college?”
It’s true that going to university abroad is a very expensive option. Tuition is much higher than at Chine universities, and then there are the expens for room and board.
sliangTuition at Harvard this year is around $46,000(￥318,700), but when you include student rvice fees, room, and board, that figure jumps to over S65, 000 a year.
Schools outside the US are a little bit less expensive on average, but they can still empty your wallet. Tuition at Oxford University is at least ￥136,500. The cost of Australia’s University of Melbourne varies a great deal depending on the discipline, but tuition alone will likely t students back ￥148, 500 a year.
The numbers can be really shocking, but don’t worry. Most universities have systems in place to help students pay for their education.
The first thing you should look into is whether or not you are fit for financial aid. While so
me universities don’t allow international students to apply for aid, many make no distinction.
While most financial aid is “need-bad”, meaning that you have to demonstrate that your parents cannot afford to pay the full amount, there are also scholarships bad on merit. If you are a math talent or a promising basketball player you might end up going to college free of charge.
Then, there are some scholarships that are designed specifically for Chine students. The famous Freeman Scholarship at Wesleyan University, for example, is awarded to two Chine students from Hong Kong and two from the mainland each year.
