Choosing a university system when your family relocates internationally

For a family moving countries, few decisions carry as much weight - or as much confusion - as figuring out where a teenager should go to university. Relocation usually resolves most logistics: schools, housing, healthcare, visas. University admissions is different. It sits several years in the future, it depends on a system the family may not have grown up with, and by the time it becomes urgent, some of the doors may already be closing.
