You should pay attention to these problems when studying in Singapore.

# Studying in Singapore # Introduction Singapore has always been a popular country for studying in Asia, so many international students will choose Singapore to study, not only because of its excellent education system and institutions, but also because of its attractive immigration policy. What should I pay attention to when studying in Singapore? The following exam network mainly introduces you from the aspects of application and life, hoping to help you who want to apply for studying in Singapore.

What problems should we pay attention to when studying in Singapore: application.

1, don't fake your education.

In order to increase the success rate of visas, some students in technical schools or technical secondary schools did not hesitate to forge false academic qualifications and certificates in the past, but after being investigated, they lost the opportunity to study in Singapore forever. At present, the Singapore Immigration Department has set up an academic accreditation team, all of which are China employees, and will strictly examine students' academic qualifications. Students should not falsify their academic qualifications under any circumstances, which will permanently prevent them from entering Singapore in the form of studying abroad.

2. Don't give work certificates to parents in the same unit.

As we all know, the economic related materials in the application for studying abroad are the most critical. All money-related materials should be carefully examined and re-examined, and the most important thing is parents' work and income certificates. Parents' work income certificate should not be issued by a company, and the annual income adds up to more than 654.38+10,000 yuan, which should be consistent with other matching materials. The signature of the work certificate should be completely consistent with the company letterhead and official seal.

3. Don't go on field trips.

As Singapore is close to China, many parents and students want to make a field trip to Singapore before applying for a study visa. However, in order to avoid being suspected of immigration tendency, it is best for students not to go to Singapore for field trips before studying abroad. If they want to deepen their understanding of Singapore, they can learn relevant information through the Internet, or learn from classmates, relatives and friends who have already studied in Singapore.

In addition, for those students who have graduated for a long time, the examination of Singapore Immigration Bureau is still very strict. As Singapore is a country that attaches importance to vocational education, students who have graduated for a long time can consider using some remedial experience to make up for it.

4, problems should be timely contact with relevant departments.

If you have any questions during your study in Singapore, you should contact the Singapore Tourism Board or the Education Office of the China Embassy in Singapore immediately. In the application process, as long as you are not greedy and cheap, do not try to save trouble, consult carefully and choose carefully, I believe you will be able to choose a school that suits you.

5. Language and cultural exchanges are necessary.

International students often face problems such as poor language communication and cultural background differences. Even if students master good language skills in the learning process, there will still be problems such as accent or listening and speaking in practical application. This point is more prominent when students are looking for a job after graduation and in the process of finding a job. Language is a bridge of communication, and foreign students will deeply feel the importance of language in their job search. Even if they have excellent professional skills, if they speak a foreign language "badly" or don't understand what others are saying, the recruiting unit will have to "reluctantly give up what one favours". For them, they are more inclined to choose employees whose professional skills are above average, but who can express their opinions completely and fluently.

In addition to language, international students need to have a deep understanding of local culture. In foreign countries, it takes some time to adapt to the corporate culture, so they can participate in more practical activities and better understand the local corporate culture. Students can pay attention to observation and ask for advice modestly during their internship. It is suggested that students pay more attention to other people's architectural exchanges during their school days, rather than just the knowledge in books.

6. Choosing a good major is more important.

When choosing a major, students should not only consider their own interests, but also pay attention to the major closely related to social development. These majors are relatively good for employment and pay well. Courses for studying in Singapore, such as hotel management, logistics management, computer courses, accounting courses, business administration, biotechnology, mass media, etc., are all disciplines with comparative advantages.

7. Establish smooth and diverse communication channels.

International students must have a sound social resource support system, including a group of friends, participate in collective activities for international students, and pay attention to the future professional development direction and domestic requirements for talents. Working hard according to these goals and preparing as soon as possible will be of great benefit to finding a suitable position. Don't look down on your feet at the beginning of your work, be down to earth.
