目前我女兒在Fryeburg Academy 讀10年級,并且已付完11年級全部學費,但是在5月我們全家取得美國移民簽證(綠卡及社會安全卡將于三個月內收到),于是女兒向學校提出返還3000美元的國際生費用,招生官和學校作出決定---不退回,理由如下:
Thank you for your email, and I did look into this situation for you on behalf of Jennifer and her family. Unfortunately, we are unable to refund the $3,000.00 International Student Fee, as it applies to more benefits then solely her passport and I-20. The whole program of the Center for International Students is something that Jennifer is still accessing and utilizing during her time here. Our website states that this fee covers the following:
· This fee is required of all international students. It covers the intensive and specialized support provided by FA’s Center for International Students: TOEFL preparation and testing, college counseling, and college writing instruction. It also covers, when applicable, ESOL study and the additional administrative assistance required for passport, I-20, and visa management.
Please let me know if you have any additional questions! Thank you in advance for helping us to share this information with the family.
我們已經有移民簽證I-5,也就不須要I-20,至于其他的寫作、大學顧問服務,我們也不須要。
請問各位:我們該如何取回這3000美元?

可以詢問學校,在取得綠卡的情況下孩子是否可以轉為本國生源以及流程如何,明確告知學校你們不再需要學校為孩子提供國際生方面的服務,家長親自溝通一下吧,也許孩子沒有講清楚你們目前的情況。
