Increasingly Chinese parents send children to Canada and the United States for secondary school prior to university there. This article reports on the lived experiences of Chinese students with secondary education abroad, as well as those from international secondary schools in China. Students’ perceptions of academic and social experiences are uncovered through ethnographies and interviews in an American university and a Canadian university.
