There is no immediate translation in English for this term because of no such title in the western society or educatinal system. However, we can invent a term for it and gradually spread it out to the westerners.


How about :
upper alumna (學姊), lower alumna (學妹)
upper alumnus (學兄), lower alumnus (學弟)
upper schoolmate (學長), lower schoolmate (學弟妹)

"senior/junior" can also be used instead.
