2. Application steps for studying abroad

First, prepare for the English exam.

English is a communication tool. Commonwealth countries, such as Britain and Australia, need to take IELTS. The United States, Canada and other North American countries need to take the TOEFL. If you go to the United States for graduate study, take GRE, MBA, GMAT and IELTS in Commonwealth countries, it will be enough. Taking the English exam is a key preparation and the most important and trusted material for the Admissions Office.

Second, apply for a university.

This corresponds to which country to apply for. Usually, you decide which country to go to first. This involves what kind of English to prepare. University applications are divided into several gradients according to their own conditions. Well, it's symmetrical with your present situation. Make sure to apply to 5-6 universities, then choose one of them that you think is better, and then choose your major first. Generally, it is consistent with your own background or related background. Some majors don't need background, such as MBA. Master of Science, Education, Sociology, Asian Studies, etc. In the process of preparing for the English exam, you can contact different schools, send emails, and apply for a university after you have a clear understanding. You can also apply if your English scores are not out. Tell the school how much you can take, and the school will give you conditional admission. When you go to school, just give the offer together with your English scores to the Admissions Office.

Third, apply for a visa.

A study visa is an endorsement (stamp) on a person's passport or travel document, or a label with a clear explanation, indicating the reason for the holder's entry, the time allowed to stay, or allowing him to travel to other countries through his territory. If a person wants to travel abroad, settle down or study abroad, get married, etc. In addition to his passport, he should also hold the corresponding visa. Passport is the holder's nationality and identity certificate, and visa is the permission certificate of a sovereign country to allow foreign citizens or their own citizens to enter, exit or transit. Visas are generally endorsed on passports, some are endorsed on other travel documents instead of passports, and some are issued separately. For example, immigration visas in the United States and Canada are A4 paper, and Singapore also issues separate paper visas to foreigners. Generally speaking, a visa must be used at the same time as a passport to be valid. Generally speaking, foreigners are granted different entry visas according to the identity of the applicant and the purpose of entry, such as visas for traveling, visiting relatives, emigrating, studying abroad and working, and the residence time after entry is limited. Due to the different types of visas, the relevant materials needed are also different. Generally, short-term residence applications have fewer restrictions and shorter waiting time for approval. For the purpose of long-term residence, the application is more restricted and the waiting time is longer. A country has no obligation to allow foreigners to enter the country unconditionally (unless there is a treaty), and a foreigner has no right to ask a government to allow him to enter the country. A sovereign country always has restrictions on the entry of foreigners. In recent years, with the development of international trade, international political relations and the prosperity of tourism, visa regulations in many countries tend to be simplified. There are also agreements between countries to exempt visas or simplify visa procedures.

The validity of a visa refers to a period of time from the date of issuance of the visa to the future. After this period, the visa will be invalid. Generally, countries issue entry visas valid for 3 months, while some countries issue entry visas valid for 1 month. Some countries have strict restrictions on the validity of visas, such as Germany, which only issues visas according to the date of application. The validity of transit visas is generally short.

The duration of the visa refers to the time allowed for the holder to stay after entering the country. The difference between it and the visa validity period is that the visa validity period refers to the use period of the visa, that is, the holder can enter and leave the country within the specified time. If the visa is valid for 3 months and the stay period is l5 days, the visa can enter or leave the country on any day within 3 months from the date of issuance, but the holder can only stay in the country for 15 days from the date of entry to the date of exit. Some countries must enter the country within 3 months after issuance, and the stay period after entry is 1 month; In some countries, the visa entry period and stay period are the same. For example, the validity period and stay period of the American visitor visa is three months, that is, the entrant is valid for three months and can only stay for three months after entering the country. The validity period of the visa is generally 1 month or 3 months; The longest is generally half a year or more than 1 year, such as employment and study visa; The shortest is 3 days or 7 days, such as a transit visa.

A work visa refers to an application made by an applicant and a foreigner other than the nationality of the applicant country to the embassy of the applicant country and employed by a formal institution certified by the applicant country. A work visa is a permit to work in the territory of the applicant country and a legally binding non-immigrant document. If you are an international student, different countries apply for different types of work visas after graduation. British students can only apply for three kinds of work visas after graduation: second-class visa, fifth-class temporary work visa and first-class (graduate entrepreneur) visa.

Validity times In addition to the validity period and stay period, the visa also stipulates the validity times. Generally, it is divided into one valid visa, two valid visas and multiple valid visas. The number of times a visa is valid means that once it is used within the validity period, it will be invalid. Two valid visas, that is, you can use them twice within the validity period of the visa. Multiple valid visas, that is, within the validity period of the visa, the holder can enter and leave its territory multiple times. For example, some tourist visas for Australia and India allow multiple entry and exit within three or six months. In some countries, work visas are also applicable to multiple entry. Of course, what kind of visa to issue, how long it is valid and how many times it is valid are decided by the visa authority according to the specific situation of the entry applicant.

3. Common exams for studying abroad

The most important and common tests for studying abroad are GMAT, GRE, IELTS and TOEFL, which are all tests to test the English ability of applicants. It mainly examines students' listening, writing, reading and speaking abilities. No matter at this stage of middle school or at university, you must take this kind of examination, and the examination results can also be used as one of the stepping stones to apply for colleges and universities.

Postgraduate management entrance examination

The GMAT test scores are used to evaluate whether the applicant is suitable for the postgraduate study of business and economics, so as to decide whether to enroll. GMAT is mainly used to evaluate whether an applicant is qualified to continue studying business administration. GMAT test should not only test the applicant's English language ability and mathematical thinking ability, but also test his psychological reaction, logical thinking and ability to solve practical problems.

GRE test

It is the test score required by all kinds of graduate schools (except school of management and law school) of universities around the world, and it is also the most important criterion for applicants to award scholarships. GRE test mainly examines students' logical thinking ability, English reading ability and English vocabulary. Only with these three abilities can we get good grades in the GRE exam. At present, most overseas universities have no specific requirements for GRE scores in the application rules, but higher GRE scores can often well reflect the applicant's excellent logical thinking ability and English proficiency.

International English Language Testing System

The role and status of IELTS and TOEFL are similar, but IELTS scores are mainly recognized by Commonwealth countries. In the application of American schools, some schools don't accept IELTS scores, so applicants should determine their application direction as soon as possible to avoid the situation that their language scores can't meet the requirements of ideal institutions.

TOEFL ［Test of English as a Foreign Language］

English proficiency test provided by graduate students from non-English speaking countries. TOEFL can only be used for studying abroad, but you can apply for scholarships. Europe (such as Britain), Oceania (such as Australia and New Zealand) and some countries and regions in Southeast Asia all recognize TOEFL scores.

What needs to be reminded here is that most China students' oral test scores are not optimistic, and the way to improve the level of studying abroad is to persist in training. Only a comprehensive breakthrough in "listening, speaking, reading and writing" can achieve good results.
