Hello : My husband has a job offer in Basel Switzerland that he wishes to accept. WE have a 16yr old son in Grade 11 in USA. What optiosn do we have to transfer him to Basel, and what are the pros/cons/watchouts ? None of us speak German. Helpful hints about such a move will be higly appreciated .
Being honest you are going to have to pay for private school where he can do his
Baccalaureate



Try to negotiate the school fees as part of the job contract plus any moving /settling costs. Otherwise leave him in Wisconsin? with relatives to finish his education. He may be able to do his final two years in Wisconsin, get his GED/APs etc. and then transfer to a Swiss Higher Ed establishment.
