International students at Smith

<p>“I don’t know what life after admission is like for us seniors but my D has her baccalaureate in 6 weeks”</p>

<p>For some, the same as Europeans. My daughter, too, had to study for the last 6 weeks to pass her higher level IB exams in order to be awarded the diploma–not to mention get college credit. It’s rumored students’ enrolled the IB diploma program work harder than they ever will in college. That should give your daughter a modicum of relief. ;)</p>

<p>Query:Why is your daughter worried about her English? It appears your 1st language is English, so I would assume she’s much more proficient than her counterparts that only learned the language in school.</p>
