What is the agency fee for studying abroad in Australia?

With regard to the details of intermediary fees charged by various intermediaries, experts from China Overseas Study Supervision Service Network said that under normal circumstances, the level of economic development in the regions where intermediaries are located will affect the intermediary fees, and the fees in the developed eastern regions may be slightly higher than those in the underdeveloped central and western regions. At the same time, there are some differences in intermediary fees due to different countries and institutions' rankings.

Take studying in the United States as an example. Because the United States itself is a hot country for studying abroad, the application procedures are complicated and take a long time, and there are many colleges and universities in the United States, and it is difficult to grasp the whole, so the application fee in the United States is much higher than that in other countries. Entrusting a study agent to apply for an American university requires a minimum of about 25, yuan and a maximum of more than 6, yuan in agency fees.

In other major English-speaking countries, intermediary agencies generally charge fees for studying in the UK according to the situation. The situation of intermediary fees for studying abroad is roughly as follows: if students apply for ordinary institutions, the fees are about 9, yuan to 14, yuan, but if they want to apply for a better ranking, universities with excellent education quality need to pay intermediary service fees ranging from 14, yuan to 17, yuan. The lowest intermediary fee for studying in Australia is 7, yuan, and the highest is 14, yuan. Relatively speaking, Canadian universities do not actively recruit international students, and the threshold of government policies on visas and immigration is relatively high. Therefore, it is difficult to apply for studying in Canada, and the agency fee for studying in Canada is naturally relatively high. Under normal circumstances, the service fee for studying in Canada is 15, yuan to 22, yuan.

The agency fee for studying in other European countries ranges from 1, yuan to 18, yuan. The agency service fee in Japan and South Korea is relatively low, but the highest fee can reach 4, yuan because the Japanese application needs to include the overseas service fee of 3, yuan.

1. First, look at qualifications. Before choosing an intermediary for studying abroad, see if it has the qualification of conducting self-funded intermediary business for studying abroad issued by the Ministry of Education and the business license issued by the Industrial and Commercial Bureau. Generally speaking, unqualified black study abroad agents, such as education consulting companies, either call on qualified agents who are not their own company names, or one of their general business items in their industrial and commercial business licenses clearly states: education consulting (excluding study abroad consulting and study abroad agents), which is an important basis for distinguishing whether to study abroad agents

2. Secondly, review contracts. The size of the company, is it state-owned or private? Is it directly under the Ministry of Education or subordinate institutions of other state departments? Most of the contracts of state-owned enterprises are model texts issued by the Ministry of Education, so there is a certain guarantee in terms of contracts, but there is no guarantee that the service process is perfect.

3. Third, check word of mouth. Before choosing an intermediary, it is suggested to search the name of this institution on the Internet to see if there are any cases of complaints or disputes in forums, communities and complaint websites. It is inevitable that everyone will be satisfied with the service of the study abroad agent, but if there are many complaints, you should really choose carefully.
