How It Works

RIA provides Chinese students with the opportunity to study at some of the oldest and most well-respected private High Schools in America while living at the RIA campus and receiving a specially designed program of academic and personal support and supervision from RIA’s team of educational professionals.
 

Normally, it is very difficult for the foreign students to be directly accepted by RIA’s Partner High Schools. This is why RIA has developed the Intensive Summer Preparatory Session that will provide Chinese students with the language skills and knowledge necessary to be accepted by RIA’s Partner Schools. The Summer Session also provides students with an understanding of American culture and learning style that is necessary to perform well in these demanding Schools. Once a student completes the Summer Session and begins classes at one of our Partner Schools, RIA’s specially trained student advisors provide extensive after-school and weekend training that further strengthens the student’s academic and personal performance.
 

All aspects of life at RIA, from housing and food service to individual counseling and English language training are carefully designed to ensure that students are comfortable living in America, perform well at school, receive a High School Diploma and gain acceptance at an American college or university. RIA is a bridge to success for Chinese students.
