First, direct application

It's not as difficult as you think to apply for studying in Canadian universities directly, because some universities in Canada recognize Chinese college entrance examination scores, and students can apply for studying abroad according to the college entrance examination scores after the college entrance examination.

Suitable for the crowd: high school graduates who have plans to study in Canada and make relevant preparations in advance.

Second, the preparatory course for studying abroad

Preparatory study abroad refers to 1+3 undergraduate study abroad program. Students need to study in domestic universities for half a year or 1 preparatory courses for studying abroad (English comprehensive+professional basic courses), and then apply for joint preparatory study in Canadian universities according to IELTS scores and professional courses.

Transferring credits to study abroad refers to 2+2 and 3+2 study abroad programs. Students study the original courses of foreign universities in domestic universities for 2-3 years, and then apply to study in Canadian universities connected with the project according to their professional average and IELTS scores.

2. Misunderstandings to understand when applying for studying in Canada

Myth 1: Double admission to Canadian universities.

Double admission refers to an applicant who has graduated from a domestic high school or above and has failed in TOEFL or IELTS or other internationally recognized English tests to apply for undergraduate courses in Canadian public universities. Some universities can issue English classes and conditional university admission notices if they meet other application conditions. Once an applicant has passed the college English exam, he can enter the university directly, without taking TOEFL or IELTS, and without applying again. Applicants can also apply for changing majors.

But not every university is like this. Universities with high reputation in Canada, such as the University of British Columbia and the University of Toronto, will not issue double admission notices, and those without English scores will not be admitted to university specialized courses.

Myth 2: Getting an offer means going abroad.

This is a misunderstanding that students and parents are prone to. To study abroad, you must first be admitted to a school or training institution, but this does not mean that you can successfully study abroad with an offer. This is only the first condition. More importantly, you must apply for a student visa in Canada.

Myth 3: If you have enough deposits, you can get a visa.

As we all know, preparing for studying abroad definitely requires certain economic ability. Therefore, having enough bank deposits can prove your financial ability. According to Yunxue Education Group, Canadian visa officers often take the financial ability of the applicant and his family or guarantor as an important evaluation condition when evaluating whether the applicant really goes to study. Therefore, many applicants have to temporarily borrow money from relatives and friends to make deposits in order to pass the customs. But the visa officer also needs to verify the authenticity of your deposit certificate and investigate the authenticity of its "source". So you must provide other materials that can prove its "authenticity"; Secondly, in addition to financial ability, the visa officer should also consider whether you have an "immigrant tendency" and whether the selected school and course are really helpful to you before making a decision on whether to grant a visa.

Misunderstanding 4, a history of refusal will affect the signing of the bill.

Many applicants mistakenly believe that their application for a study visa in Canada will be affected because they are refused visas by other countries. Therefore, it wastes a lot of time and money to constantly change new passports. The refusal of visas in other countries does not mean that Canadian study visas must also be refused, depending on the reasons for the refusal.

Myth 5: You can't apply again after refusing the visa.

If the embassy finds false application documents, the applicant cannot apply again within two years. However, if the applicant is indeed refused a visa because of some incomplete information, he can reapply and provide relevant supplementary information or prove that the application is reviewed.

Myth 6: University ranking determines everything.

Education management in Canada is completely different from that in the United States. As long as it is a university, there is no distinction between "national" and "provincial" except Trinity University in the West. Because they are all public, there is little difference in the equipment of teachers. Especially in the stage of undergraduate education, some smaller public universities often have more advantages in undergraduate education. Even though McLean, a prestigious Canadian magazine, publishes its ranking on June 5438+065438+ 10 every year, it mainly depends on the degree-granting category, not the professional ranking, and the ranking can only be used as a reference.

3. Precautions for studying in Canada

1. Schools announced through formal channels are preferred.

Choosing a school is the first step to study in Canada. In this regard, study abroad experts suggest: "study abroad schools should choose countries with relatively stable politics and good social security." Secondly, we should also consider the qualifications and teachers of the school. Students who are going to study abroad should know the basic situation of the school through various channels when choosing a school.

2. Consciously learn to communicate with others

There are two reasons for the safety problems of international students in China: First, they are not fully prepared before going abroad, mainly because they don't understand the customs, laws and regulations of the destination country; Another important reason is that international students tend to be younger and have a weak sense of safety. Their self-care ability and self-reliance ability are relatively poor, and their ability to communicate with others and adapt to society is also relatively low, which directly leads to students not knowing how to deal with problems or having disputes and contradictions with others abroad, and they will only quarrel blindly or even use force.

3. Understand the cultural background of the countries studying abroad

International students may encounter different security problems in different countries. Therefore, it is necessary to consult professional study abroad service institutions, understand the legal system, customs and cultural background of the countries studying abroad, and make some psychological preparations for studying abroad. For example, in North America, citizens can hold guns within the scope prescribed by law. So be more cautious, don't intensify contradictions, and pay more attention to the surrounding environment. In the face of shooting and other emergencies, we must know how to hide and call the police. Don't panic, help each other, calmly deal with it, and follow the instructions.

4. Protect your rights and interests by legal means.

After the sudden incident of studying in Canada, how to minimize the loss and protect one's legitimate rights and interests through legal means is an important issue of studying abroad safety. The principle that international students should follow after an emergency is not to take drastic or even illegal measures, but to use local legal means to safeguard their legitimate rights and interests.
