Application process for undergraduate study in the UK

1, preparation stage

The intention to study abroad is generally decided one year before the application. For example, if you want to study abroad in September, and you have more time to prepare for yourself, and the success rate is higher, then you should determine your intention to study abroad in June of the previous year.

First of all, students can find as much information about schools and majors on the Internet as possible, and then make an all-round evaluation according to their own conditions and choose schools and majors. Generally, several schools are selected first, and then you decide which one you want to apply for.

2. During the application period.

General applications are submitted from August and September of the previous year to April and May of the second year. But the students finished it a year ago, so they submitted their application to the school and waited for the result. It's just that different schools have different time to reply to students, some can get a reply in a month soon, and some need three to six months, so you need to check whether your email has been replied frequently.

Be sure to read the offer carefully after receiving it. In fact, many schools in Britain are admitted conditionally, that is, students can go to this school, but they must meet all the conditions that the school needs to meet within a certain period of time, generally IELTS and GPA.

You can take the IELTS test after submitting your application. Generally, you only need to complete the test within the specified time and get enough scores. Please note that many universities also require students to get high marks in IELTS. In addition, if students' IELTS scores are lower than the requirements, they will go to language classes in the second year. However, there are also requirements for language courses, and the specific requirements are different for each university.

3. After the application is completed.

This time period is usually February and March of the second year, and students need to complete all applications at this time. If it is a conditional offer, all conditions must be met. There are still many things to do. The first is deposit, which generally requires three or six months in advance to deposit the prepared money and freeze it. What needs special attention is the deposit period, so students' application for studying abroad must be decided as soon as possible. Frozen funds can only be unfrozen two or three months before departure.

The second is deposit remittance, which is a certificate for students to confirm their admission. The school will give students an account and remit money to this account. If it is not remitted within the specified time, the school will consider that the student has given up admission.

A series of things to know when studying in Britain

1, accommodation

There are many accommodation options for studying in the UK. For students who have just arrived in Britain, they will choose to live in school dormitories or in the homes of British natives. Students who have been studying in the UK for a long time generally choose to rent a house outside. No matter what kind of accommodation you choose, you should pay attention to safety, especially if you rent a house outside. When renting a house, make sure that the rented house is legal. When signing the contract, read the lease terms carefully and confirm the details of the house before renting it out, so that unnecessary disputes will not occur when checking out. Students who want to rent a house should also choose the object of sharing, especially with close classmates or friends, and try not to share with strangers.

2. Work.

With T4 student visa, you can legally work in the UK, and the working hours are 20 hours per week. Students can take part-time jobs in some local businesses in Britain, which can not only earn pocket money, but also practice oral English, so that you can integrate into British culture more quickly. If you want to work legally in the UK, you need to apply for a NI, otherwise you are working illegally. If you are found working illegally, you will be sent back to China. In Britain, the minimum wage for people who work part-time over 2 1 year old is 6.7 pounds an hour. If it is lower than this salary, you can report it. Be sure to ask what your salary is during the interview.

Step 3 study

The most important thing to go to Britain is to study, because the education system in Britain is very different from that in China, and the courses taught in schools are also very different, so we should grasp our own learning methods and improve the efficiency of learning. British schools attach great importance to students' teamwork and will give students a lot of homework about teamwork. We should actively do what we can. Our main purpose in Britain is to study, so we must spend more time on study. Although work has its advantages, we shouldn't waste all our time on it. Usually you can go to the library and museum to learn more extracurricular knowledge.
