3. How to study in Italy?

1) international students and planners (Kelpolo Plan/Turandot Plan)

2) What is an international student? What is a planned student?

International students: International students study languages for non-EU students all over the world at home. That is, international students enter school one year earlier than the planned students, provided that they have learned Italian well before going abroad (about B 1-B2).

Process: Pre-register in June and July, hand in the visa (tourist visa) at the end of August, go to Italy to take the entrance examination, pass the entrance examination and go back to China to change the student visa, and then enter the school.

Planned student: It is enough to have a basic knowledge of linguistics before going abroad. Generally speaking, it is recommended to learn the basic knowledge by yourself during college, and then study the language in Italy for about one year. Planned students are better at language learning.

Process: First pre-register in China (pre-select school majors), then go to Italy to study the language of10-1month, and pass the entrance examination of the school in August of the following year.

When applying for a visa, foreign students have language requirements, but plan students don't.

4. What is the Kelpolo Plan? What's the Turandot plan?

1) Kelpolo program is the way for China students (art students or non-art students) to apply for Italian public comprehensive universities or polytechnics.

2) Turandot Program is a way for China students (art students only) to apply for Italian national academy of fine arts or conservatory of music and some private academies of fine arts.

PS: If you are a senior three student and want to go abroad for an undergraduate course, it is most reasonable to study family planning. If you are still a senior one, or a college student, you can plan as early as possible and pass the domestic language first, so it will save time and money to go abroad through international students.

5. What materials do I need to apply for studying abroad? What about graduate students?

1) attending high school: Italian high school is a five-year program and needs a guardian to attend high school there.

2) Undergraduate study abroad: high school diploma, test scores, college entrance examination scores, and art skills (art students).

3) Postgraduates studying abroad: transcripts, certificates of academic qualifications or temporary academic qualifications, course descriptions, motivation letters, resumes, language certificates and portfolios.

6. Do public universities have to get college entrance examination results? Do graduate students studying abroad have to have a domestic undergraduate grade point?

1) college entrance examination results: necessary. As long as you apply for a public institution, you need a certificate of college entrance examination results to apply for it. It's just that if you take the Kyle Polo plan, you need 400 points in the college entrance examination. If you are an international student, there is no limit to your college entrance examination results.

2) GPA: Most public universities in Italy don't look at the GPA and average score of domestic undergraduate courses.

7. Is there a dormitory in the school?

Every public university in Italy does not provide accommodation. Universities are places where students have classes and study. Each university only provides classrooms and study rooms. Dormitory application mainly depends on family conditions. For a good application with poor conditions, postgraduate doctoral students are better than undergraduates.

8. I will be 30 years old soon. Can you still go to graduate school? Can I work?

1) Yes, there is no age limit for graduate study.

2) You can work, but you need to apply to the school.

9. How to apply for a visa?

International students must apply for a tourist visa to take the exam before returning to China to apply for a study visa. The required materials can be found on the website of the Italian visa center. Pay attention to the complete materials, and don't fake the running water. If you are self-reliant, you can do DIY and exercise yourself. If you encounter difficulties or are afraid that you can't get through, go to an intermediary.

10. The major you want to study abroad is different from the undergraduate major. Can I change my major?

Yes, but the professional span should not be too big. On the one hand, it reduces the difficulty of changing majors, on the other hand, it is better and easier to learn.

2. Matters needing attention in studying in Italy

1, select the main attack direction

When you go to that country to study, you still have a lot to learn. As we all know, the credit system is practiced abroad. You can graduate as long as you complete the credits. You can't graduate if you are not satisfied. There are still many credits to be taken in studying in this country.

At this time, many people will worry that they can't graduate because they are not satisfied with the courses, and then they will choose many courses and directions when they first go, but in fact, this will make them very tired, and they will have to pass before they can get credits, so there is no need to do so, so choose what to focus on this semester from the beginning, and then make plans.

2. attendance is very important.

In fact, this is based on the fact that people in this country attach great importance to feelings. If you go to class regardless of whether you understand and learn well, you can get acquainted with the teacher, and even if you don't learn well, you will be much more friendly during the exam, because the exam in this country also has an oral exam from the teacher. And attendance is usually divided, so this is a good way to improve the pass rate.

3. Review thoroughly before the exam.

Many people will review what they want to take before the exam, but it's useless not to look at what they don't take. What they want to take is very important, but the breadth of each exam is limited. Sometimes a lot of important knowledge is not learned, so if you don't take the exam, you won't review what you learned later, and you may have no impression at all. In fact, to put it bluntly, learning is for learning, not for exams.

Learn the language of this country well.

Even if you apply for a pure English major, you should learn Italian, because you have to live in that country for a long time after all, so having a good environment for learning Italian is also very convenient for your life in that country. Moreover, if you learn one more Italian, you will be able to work in a much broader direction in the future. Simply put, you are not afraid of more talents.

Why did you choose to study in Italy?

1, short academic system

Public universities are recognized by domestic authorities, and private universities are very popular in the job market. The length of study in each stage stipulated by the authorities here is generally one year shorter than that in China, and the decisive item for graduation is credits, which will be completed ahead of schedule and graduated ahead of schedule.

Undergraduate study is generally three years, and master study is generally two years, both of which are recognized in China. You don't have to worry about the gold content of academic qualifications, which can effectively shorten the study time and enter the job market earlier than domestic students at the same time.

2. Low consumption

Government education provides tuition-free benefits. As long as everyone can pass the examination of the school, then everyone can enjoy national treatment and start professional study for free. Although private colleges and universities charge fees normally, the overall cost is low.

The cost of living here is not high, because the overall price of society is reasonable, and most of the goods can be self-sufficient in China, so the price will naturally decrease without importing. Up to 80 thousand a year can meet the needs of life.

3. Good teaching

Everyone is most concerned about the quality of teaching. Italy's higher education is excellent, which is reflected in the number of top universities and the complete professional settings. Everyone can basically find their own major.

Of course, what is displayed here is the teaching of art, whether it is music or art, sculpture or design, which has a very good artistic soil and many unique things in innovation, which is very attractive to international students.

4. Good job

The local aging itself is more serious, so young laborers are very welcome. Both part-time and internship can inject fresh vitality into local enterprises. Of course, it won't be difficult to stay here after graduation.

In addition, high-tech professionals also have bilingual advantages. No matter which country you go to for a job, you will be more popular. If they return to China, they can also enjoy the treatment of returnees.

4. What should I bring to study in Italy?

I. Documents and certificates

Identity-related documents, including your passport, visa and other materials, need you to bring the original and prepare at least three copies to ensure that you don't need to spend extra time when you need to use them, and you can make them up as soon as possible as long as you work hard.

You also need to bring cash and bank cards. After landing in Italy, you need to spend money. I suggest you change your cash into small bills. The euro is universal. Of course, you also need to bring a bank card. You can use it as a backup before moving and get a local card.

Second, clothing shoes and bags

You also need to buy clothes you usually wear. In order to save space in the suitcase, people generally don't bring a lot of clothes. If you go to Italy and look at the local weather, it will add up to two or three days. It is not expensive to buy new clothes here.

However, students who are studying often need to take part in some formal activities, including orientation and queuing. At this time, they need to wear formal clothes or formal dresses. It is much cheaper to order them from China, so it is worth carrying around.

Third, daily necessities

Things like washing and bedding need to be brought from China, because accommodation needs to be arranged on the first day after arrival. If you have prepared the basic supplies, you don't need to spend time shopping, and you can have more time to arrange other things.

In addition, drugs also need to be carefully prepared. Just arrived in Italy, it takes time for the insurance to take effect, and this stage is the most prone to illness. Taking common basic drugs can solve most maladjustment problems.

Fourth, electronic products.

Life and study are inseparable from various electronic products, the most basic of which are mobile phones and computers. As something people usually use, it is almost inseparable from us, and it is a very good choice for both study and entertainment.

For everyone's study, you can also prepare a USB flash drive and a recording pen to ensure that you won't miss the key content of the class, but remember to confirm with the teacher in advance whether you can use these devices.
