What are the advantages and disadvantages of studying in Britain compared with going to the United States?

The educational system in Britain is three years for undergraduate students and one year for master students. The United States usually has four years of undergraduate studies and two years of master's studies. Therefore, it takes much less time for Britain to get a master's degree completely, which is the choice of people who want to do it quickly. However, it is not difficult to guess that under such an educational system arrangement, the experience and degree gold content of students from the two countries cannot be the same. This will be discussed further later.

2. expenses

The cost in Britain is significantly lower than that in the United States. Regardless of any scholarship, the cost of studying in the UK for international students is1.5-20,000 pounds (equivalent to 24,000-30,000 US dollars)/year; Three years is 45-60 thousand pounds (equivalent to 70-90 thousand dollars) American private schools cost 50,000-60,000 dollars a year and 200,000-240,000 dollars for four years; Public schools are a little cheaper, now 30,000-40,000 dollars a year, and four years12-16,000 dollars. In the United States, except for a few schools such as Berkeley, California, the good schools with high domestic recognition are mainly private.

3. Application difficulty

Generally speaking, the threshold of recommendation letters and academic background in Britain is lower than that in the United States, or more flexible. Moreover, many schools in Britain offer various forms of preparatory courses, and they can be promoted to undergraduate courses after one year. The threshold for preparatory courses is lower. The general reason is that British schools are all public schools, and they are not well-off (even embarrassed) in terms of funds, so they are keen to attract international students (according to the law, the fees charged for international students are higher than those for British students).
