[quote=Anonymous]I am a research scientist. The truth is, if you want a STEM PhD, deciding which school to go for undergrad based on grad school completion is not the way to go. Find the one which will be the best fit for your child. Because, getting into grad school as an English speaking student is not that competitive, particularly when compared to undergrad admissions. The admissions statistics shown are not broken down by English vs. Non-english speakers. But that really matters, as anyone that has had a TA from China will tell you. Where I did my PhD, we accepted about 70% of the US applicants and offered funding to about 1/2 of those. By comparison, we admitted about 15% of the non-US applicants. [/quote]
