What is it that international students have been acting as intermediaries when they go to foreign universities?

How many people in different countries choose study agents, and why?

USA: At least 50%. The reasons for choosing an agent for studying abroad are school choice and documents. There are so many schools and majors in the United States that many students are not sure which schools and majors they should apply for. It is better to find an intermediary to provide a detailed plan. In addition, American documents are complicated, including essays, PS, resumes, and I find that what students write is really bad. If you are looking for a professional institution, it is still a good choice.

Canada: At least 70%, with an upward trend. Canada is the most wonderful country in the world. I will write a special article to state the wonderful work of studying in Canada. The main reason for using Canada as an intermediary is visa. Canada's visa pass rate is only 70% (other mainstream countries are above 95%). For example, the agency fee for a separate Canadian visa in the market is at least about 654.38+0.8 million, including the application, which needs 654.38+0.5 million-654.38+0.8 million, so students and parents also apply for schools by the way. There is another reason. Studying in Canada is a muddle. Whether it's visas for official website, schools or official website or Canadian embassies, the information is incomplete and vague, which is similar to the websites of China government and universities. I'm going crazy looking for things, not to mention students and parents.

UK: At least 60%, with a downward trend. The main reasons for using intermediaries are admission requirements and documents. British institutions have some internal admission requirements, which only the institutions know. If they are experienced agencies, they can help students position themselves very accurately and save time and money. In addition, although Britain pays less attention to documents than the United States, it is also very important. Visas are relatively simple, and many students can handle them themselves.

Australia: At least 80%, there is an upward trend. The main reason for using intermediary is the relevance from application to visa. All universities in Australia cooperate with intermediaries. Australia also has the problem of internal admission requirements, and experienced agencies can help students locate accurately, saving time and money. Moreover, Australia's e-visa is only available to intermediaries. If the intermediary is well-known in the immigration bureau, the pass rate of the student visa submitted by it is also high.

Singapore: About 50% students choose an intermediary. The situation in Singapore is more complicated. Public universities are difficult to enter (including science and engineering), the admission rate is very low, and public university visas are easy. Therefore, most intermediaries do not apply for public universities, and even large institutions do not necessarily have this department in Singapore. In the past, Singapore's mother-child accompanying program attracted many parents from China, but now it is difficult to enter politics and primary and secondary schools. Therefore, most intermediaries only handle private school projects in Singapore. Language exchange in Singapore is not an obstacle. The main reason for students to find an intermediary is that they are afraid of trouble.

China and Hongkong: about 50%. The reasons for choosing an agent for studying abroad are school choice and documents. We were the first to set up a program to study in Hong Kong in China, and in 2006, we also made an exhibition on special education in Hong Kong for the first time. At first, many people didn't understand it. They thought it was incredible to go to Hong Kong and need a study agent. But from a practical point of view, the effect is very good. Now, although many study agents also do Hong Kong projects, few of them really do well.

France: At least 80%. Although French public universities do not charge tuition fees, the total number of students studying in France has not increased much, and visas are not easy to get now, and the refusal rate is relatively high. Therefore, study abroad agents have withdrawn from the French study abroad market. There are also many problems in studying in France, especially when it comes to French and preparatory courses. Many students have been cheated. The main reasons for choosing an intermediary are the language barrier and opaque information, and the need to find a residence and visa in France.

Germany: At least 70%, with an upward trend. The value of studying in Germany must be underestimated by the market. Studying in Germany is very advantageous in terms of cost performance and future employment. Students and parents know little about studying in Germany. Because of language restrictions, less customer awareness, less publicity from the German government and institutions, and very strict APS audit, there are few agents studying in Germany now.
