What are the procedures for opening a school in the Philippines?

First, determine the university and major you are applying for. According to the agreement signed by the governments of China and the Philippines, the diplomas of China and the Philippines are mutually recognized. However, most students should be reminded that the selected university must be registered in the foreign supervision network of the Ministry of Education, and students can log on to the website before applying.

Step 2: Submit the application materials.

Studying in the Philippines does not require IELTS, TOEFL and other language scores, nor does it require the national entrance examination, which meets the admission requirements for applying for universities. However, most students should pay attention to the fact that the application requirements for international students in universities in the Philippines will be slightly different, and the application documents for undergraduate, master and doctoral students will also be different. In addition to the necessary application documents such as passports and photos, most students have to submit specific documents as required after determining their universities and majors.

Step 3: Wait for the admission result.

After most students submit the application materials as required, colleges and universities will evaluate them according to the application materials. Those who pass the materials are allowed to take the entrance examination. If they pass the entrance examination, they will be awarded letters of appointment.

Step 4: Apply for a visa

The visa application process for studying in the Philippines is unique. First of all, the Philippine visa is a "separate paper visa" (another paper visa is that the visa stamp is not on the passport, but on another paper). Secondly, the Philippine study visa is issued by the Philippine Immigration Bureau and should be handled in the Philippines, not the Philippine Embassy in China.

International students need to apply for a tourist visa (a separate visa) at the Philippine Embassy in China. After arriving in the Philippines, have a physical examination first. After passing the medical examination, the medical examination department will stamp the passport. In the future, the school will handle international student visas in a unified way.

Step 5: Formal admission

After the visa is successfully processed, the Immigration Bureau will stamp the study visa on the tourist visa and issue the full name ACR-ICard. ACR-ICard: ACR-I, alien ID card. After all the formalities are completed, you can officially enter the school and start studying in the Philippines.
