英國讀foundation定美國讀community c好？

1. There is no such thing as guarantee. Although your chance is not small, there will be some other issues impacting.

For instance, loss of eligibility to sponsor visa.

2. They are about the same. It all depends on the program's design and structure.

3. Difficult to say, as it is location dependent (If you stay in London, then it will be difficult for sure.)

4. Not exactly - you will save significantly in housing, but not other living expense.

5. You get the idea right, but not exactly true. The U.S. system wants the students to have comprehensive knowledge. So it requires its students to learn something a little bit (such as an engineering student still needs to know politics and music).

6. It depends on the school you want to transfer. But for community college standalone (as community college has authority to award Associate Degree), 60 units or about 20 courses.

There is a lot of resources on the internet mentioning how to calculate GPA. So I won't repeat. But it has not difference with CGPA.

7. It depends on where you are trying to go. The U.S. is a large country.

8. In Hong Kong, there are always some incidents involving person with mental health issue harming public by knife.

So is that meant knife is the root of all evil? Is that meant Hong Kong is dangerous?

9. Either on-campus (legal) and outside the campus (mostly illegal).

10. California and New York. California has more top business school than New York.

(Even California has more than New York, it does not mean it will be easier.)

11. It is possible.

12. Yes. When increase, it goes across the board. It does not care who you are (but international students will be hit the hardest as the rate is always the highest).

13. The U.S. If you have been traveled to any places within the U.K., you will know why you don't want to stay there.

14. It depends on what you are trying to get out. If for immigration, then neither.

你若因金錢問題可考慮入讀美國的社區大學，學費第一、二年每年只需港幣約130,000(連學費和食宿費)，很多人都利用這個方法，可節省不少金錢和時間成本，又可利用社區大學做踏腳石入讀心儀的名牌大學。社區大學因實行小班教學，教授專心教導學生，能為學生打好基礎，第三、四年則要看你選的大學，因應不同地區及學校的收費而有所不同，約港幣約350,000至400,000不等。有很多的教育機構也有詳盡的資料介紹，例如：讀書樂海外升學顧問有限公司(JOEC)、文化協進中心(CLC)、麗斯美國留學中心等。

我喺美國讀書，英國答你唔到
5）喺美國讀CC/college係需要讀science，social studies等科目，要視乎學校有咩courses可以讀（我science係讀climate）
6）Associate要60個credits先grad到，Transfer要視乎大學accept咩courses
7）美國有好多好ge business school，要視乎你去邊（西岸or東岸）
8）美國一D都唔危險，治安ok（當然，如果你走咗入紐約哈林區之如此類嘅地方另計）
9）internationa student只可以喺campus内揾工，internship要視乎visa等嘅因素
10）個個州都有好多大學，讀business最top當然係加州uc berkeley，如果東岸，NYU都係唔錯選擇。如果Econ Major，u of chicago同michigan state u都頗有名氣
11）要視乎State Gov，以NY State為例，家下公立大學每年加500蚊，私立加2000。美國大學有冇budget好靠有冇人捐錢〜以我間大學為例，之前有個富豪捐咗成億美金畀我間學校，即使州政府點cut我地budget，對我地影響都唔大，學校依然擴建同請新嘅Pro
13）我唔清楚英國，但美國學費好視乎咩學校，以SUNY嘅4 years college為例，in-state每年食住+學費要20000USD，international同out-of-state就要約30000USD。至於私立大學，每年50000到60000USD一定無走雞
14）我個人意見覺得兩面差唔多，要睇下自己鍾意邊個education System，如果你想讀Business/Econ ，我覺得美國會多DD機會(特別係大城市)

2013-01-14 15:35:51 補充：
補充多句，如果喺美國讀書，你要適應聽佢D美式英文，仲有用法。本人曾經喺大學嘅Writing course，因為英式同美式嘅用法同Pro爭論過一次。而且本地人有時係會聽唔明英式英文

halo, 我係英國讀緊書, 希望幫到你丫=]

1）但系咪系u到讀foundation升原校會機會大啲？

>> 好多人係英國讀foundation 都可以升番既, 但provided 你真係有讀書, 因為佢唔係話你hea 左一年就可以俾你上, 好多都係要你考試有65~ 70% 先會俾你上番. 如果你唔讀, 佢一樣係會趕你出黎. 而同時要留意既係, 英國唔係間間大學都有foudation, 而foundation 好多時都係一d 中等既大學offer 出黎, 想用foundation 去apply top 既大學, 係好難的, 所以要有心理準備.

2）另外,想知讀系college讀foundation同系u到讀foundation邊個好啲

>> depends, 係uni 既foundation 好多時都係升番果間uni, 所以你揀既時間要好小心. 而college 既foundation 要睇下佢係同邊間uni 有connection.

3）留學生系英國搵工易吾易？可以做咩工？

>> 比較難, 因為留學生一個星期max 只可以做20個小時, 而且好多公司都會想要佢地既員工係flexible, 所以如果你番9 - 5, 你冇時間可以番part time, 都好少會請你, 當時, 如果你係係town 仔既話, 可以試一下d chinese take away 店/快餐店番part time (weekend), 但係人工唔係你想像中咁高, 只可以幫到少少既生活.

4）去啲鄉村嘅地方讀,生活洗費會吾會平啲？

>> 如果唔係倫敦既話, 一般黎講15 - 20萬hkd 一年, 如果係倫敦, 就會係25 - 30萬hkd一年.

5) 雖然英國教育質素同風氣都好好，但系英國真系太貴,又驚屋企負擔吾到

>> 呢個就要你同你屋企人講了, 因為你要了解佢地既經濟係點.

==============usa 既我唔答你, 因為我只係答英國的================

12）有系英國讀緊書嘅朋友話我知.下年開始英國又加學費,系咪真咖？加幾多？留學生有無加？

>> 英國學費年年都加, local 同international 都會加,一年加5%. 就算我入左大學, 我第一年係俾19500gbp, final year 俾緊既係22250 gbp. 所以係一定會加的.
13）系英國讀1y foundation加3yrs大學嘅學費，生活費 同
系美國讀2yrs cc加2yrs u嘅學費，生活費。 邊個會平啲？

>> 一定會係usa 平d, 因為英國係物價比較高既一個地方, 如果你係4年係英國既話, min 你要預100萬hkd 先會夠.

14）綜合依咖兩國嘅經濟,局勢等.去邊個國家讀好啲？

>> 我個人覺得, 先要睇你而家屋企可以support 到你去邊到, 因為如果冇屋企人既support, 就咁decided 既話, 都係冇用. 而個人認為, 係英國會好一d, 因為你學既英文會係英式, 同時, 英國既system 好多都係同hk 既差唔多, 會比較好, 同時, 如果你話以安全既方向去諗, 都係會好少少 (但講真, 去到外國, 都係要自己小心), 而係英國亦會多少少hk人 (係大學入面), 咁有照應都會好少少. 但當然, 你都要睇下你自己想讀咩科, 同埋邊一間大學會啱你, 先再諗要去邊個國家會好d.

希望幫到你丫, 有d咩可以再email我的=]
