Because of this, studying abroad is no longer the privilege of a few; more and more parents are choosing to send their children abroad early to receive a better education, and the age of students studying abroad is getting younger.

  It is well known that Chinese parents always have high expectations for their children and spare no effort to provide all possible conditions for their children to receive a better education, making their children more competitive in the future. Because of this, studying abroad is no longer the privilege of a few; more and more parents are choosing to send their children abroad early to receive a better education, and the age of students studying abroad is getting younger.


 

  To provide children with advanced education overseas, parents can either choose to study abroad or immigrate. The relationship between studying abroad and immigration can be said to be mutually influential and mutually reinforcing. So the question arises: is it better to study abroad first and then immigrate, or to immigrate first and then study abroad?

 

  Experts indicate that different families have different focuses, but overall, as the group of students studying abroad expands, "immigrate first, study later" is becoming increasingly popular.

 

  We have always known that the United States is the primary destination for Chinese students studying abroad, but as the number of students going abroad increases year by year, competition is becoming more intense. In such fierce competition, gaining admission to prestigious American universities has become more difficult.

 

  In light of this, more and more high-net-worth families are choosing to obtain U.S. residency through the EB-5 investment immigration program, and then leverage the advantages of a green card to secure educational resources from prestigious American universities for their children in advance. It can be said that having a green card plays a crucial role in various aspects such as school selection, internships, and job hunting for children. Once children possess a green card, they can be prioritized by American schools as local students and no longer have to compete with outstanding international students, including those from China, for the limited spots available for international students at prestigious American institutions.

 

  At the same time, holding a U.S. green card allows students to enjoy 12 years of free public education and various health insurance benefits, just like local students. Additionally, there are fewer restrictions on internships and part-time jobs during their studies, and after graduation, they do not have to worry about immigration status issues that could lead to "mandatory departure". Even when returning to China for employment, they can be prioritized for hiring by foreign enterprises based on their green card status. These countless hidden benefits make the U.S. green card a highly sought-after asset.

 

  Experts from the WorldWay Immigration Group state that the EB-5 investment immigration program, which requires no restrictions on business management background, age, education level, or English proficiency, allows one person to invest and the whole family to immigrate, with an investment of only $500,000. With its low threshold and high cost-effectiveness, it has become the mainstream method for Chinese people to immigrate to the United States.

 

  Currently, the Manhattan No. 9 Luxury Boutique Hotel project, exclusively represented by WorldWay in the Greater China region, is a rare high-quality project on the market. The Manhattan No. 9 Luxury Boutique Hotel project is the only project in Manhattan that is expected to shorten the waiting period and offer first-priority repayment, providing unique and unparalleled advantages that greatly protect the interests of investors.

 

  Project Advantages

  ● Top developer DLJ collaborates with EB-5 and WorldWay once again, following the Four Seasons Hotel Resort project, forming a strong alliance.

 


 

  For investors, choosing the "immigrate first, study later" model is more in line with the economic realities of young families in terms of cost; however, the benefits extend beyond just quality overseas education. If you are considering sending your children to the United States for higher education or immigrating as a family, you need to act immediately—prepare early, act early, plan early, and immigrate early to achieve a more ideal outcome.
