Britain has always enjoyed a high reputation in the world for its long-standing, rigorous and high-quality education, which attracts students from all over the world. Compared with studying in other countries, studying in Britain has a short academic system, and most schools and majors only need 9-12 months to teach master's courses (Xiaobian personally thinks that studying in Britain is cheaper than studying in other countries), so the courses are very compact, and students basically have little time and energy to work. The following small series of Shen You's study abroad tells you some points for attention in studying in the UK:

Language:

1. IELTS: Most schools in the UK accept IELTS scores, and usually apply for postgraduate courses with a score of 6.5. If you want to apply for prestigious universities such as Cambridge and Oxford, IELTS scores above 7.5 will be more competitive.

2. GAMT/GRE: If you apply for a business major, you generally need to provide GMAT scores, while other majors need to provide GRE scores.

application time:

from July to September every year, applications from British universities are opened one after another, and applications can be submitted at this time, because British universities start to apply one year in advance, and they are first come, first served. The deadline for application for some popular majors is very early, so students who are fully prepared in advance should submit their applications as soon as the British universities begin to develop their applications.

tips:

Try to submit your application in September-October, because most British universities have just finished the work of enrolling new students, and teachers have more free time. Based on this, students should contact the school and teachers by E-mail as much as possible.

In recent years, in order to encourage international students to study in the UK and gain more economic benefits, the British government has promoted education as an industry to the world, and implemented many preferential policies for students from all over the world who apply to study in the UK.

Scholarships:

It is easier to apply for scholarships to study for a doctorate in the UK than for a master's degree. In addition to applying for scholarships from schools, you can also apply to other institutions. How many scholarships you get depends on your major and your research results in the UK.

Medical insurance: the British government provides free medical insurance to students who apply for study visas for more than half a year.

Visa:

Remember: visa materials must not be forged. The UK is very strict in this regard. As long as students are found to be fraudulent, they will be repatriated immediately and will not be allowed to apply for visas within a certain period of time.

In addition, according to the new policy of studying abroad visa officially announced by the UK, all applicants for studying abroad visa in the UK are required to add a video interview session, and the whole process lasts about 1 minutes. This interview mainly investigates the credibility of students' reasons for going to Britain. Judging from the current situation, the new policy has little impact on the visa pass rate, but students should also make preparations early.
