17yo Foreign High School Graduate
Foreign Credential Evaluations (in general)
Q: If a person has completed 12 years of education abroad but is now 17 years old because he or she started elementary school at the age of 5, can that person be considered eligible to attend university?
A：There is no age requirement for "those who have completed 12 years of school education abroad;" therefore, if they have completed 12 years of school education, they will be considered eligible for admission to a university.
