Právě jsme dostali International Counselor Newsletter z Yale College. Obsahuje pár upozornění, která se hodí i pro ostattní elitní školy. Zajímat by vás mohlo třeba: The Mid-Year Report: For many international schools this is not applicable to their system. Nevertheless, it is helpful for us to have some kind of update on a student’s progress in the middle of their final year of high school. This could be grades, but is often simply teacher report cards or a quick summary of performance from the counselor. Poor final exam results for admitted students: Most international students are made offers of admission months before we see final exam results. Here at Yale, we pay very close attention to final transcripts, IB and A-level results when they are released in the summer. As a condition of admission, as outlined in the Instructions for Admitted Students, we expect students to continue to perform ‘at a level comparable to the one presented to the admissions committee.’ Cases of poor final exam results are dealt with on a case-by-case basis and may lead to an offer of admission being rescinded. The School Profile: We are often asked about what kind of information should be included on a school profile. Besides notes on the curriculum, school size, special resources etc., it is also helpful for us to see grading scales, academic calendar, information about program ‘streaming’ (e.g. honors track etc.) and university placement of previous graduates.
