Can junior college students go abroad for postgraduate study?

After graduating from junior college, you can go abroad for postgraduate study.

College students can go to better overseas institutions for further study and enhance their competitiveness in an all-round way by transferring credits, upgrading to undergraduate courses and upgrading to master's degrees. Because not every country accepts junior college students to study for a master's degree, and the application threshold of each institution is different, students need to choose their own way of studying abroad according to their own situation. Let's sort out the inventory of national junior college students who can go abroad to study for master's degree.

United States: There are two schemes for reference.

Experts pointed out that there are two options for college students to choose American postgraduate courses: one is to apply for MBA courses, which requires relatively high students, and generally requires GPA above 3. If they have work experience, the GPA requirement can be lower, reaching more than 2.5. In addition, the language requires TOEFL score above 79 or IELTS score above 6; If the language is not up to standard, you can choose non-language dual admission channels. Another scheme is to take the dual admission channel of undergraduate and graduate students, that is, to apply for both undergraduate and graduate courses at the same time, and to obtain conditional admission of graduate courses at the same time. The requirements for students will be relatively low, and generally you can apply for GPA above 2.5. For example, the undergraduate course of St. Francis University is conditionally accepted, requiring an average score of 78 or more (full score 100), and non-language applications can be accepted.

Britain: short academic system and low entry threshold.

Britain can accept junior college students to complete their postgraduate studies in the last year of their undergraduate studies in Britain, or they can join the one-year master's preparatory course and then enter the master's course directly. The duration of the master's preparatory course is 3 months, 6 months and 9 months, and the professional scope covers business, computer, media, education, law and engineering. Secondly, the low entry threshold has also become the main reason why some domestic junior college students go to the UK to study for a master's degree. College students who apply for studying in the UK generally require an average score of 70-80 and an IELTS score of 5.5 or above to apply for a master's degree. In addition, the short time and low cost of money also attract more and more junior college students to study in the UK. Under the short-term academic system in Britain, college students only need to transition to master's preparatory course within 1 year, and then spend 1 year studying for a master's degree in Britain. Generally, you can get a master's degree after two years of study.

At present, there are many universities offering pre-master degree in Britain, such as Sheffield University, Newcastle University and Glasgow University. It is best to have some language skills before entering school. Students who directly apply for the master's program after graduating from junior college with many years of work experience are required to have relevant professional background and work experience. The average score is generally 80, and IELTS is 6.0~6.5. "This kind of students can only apply for institutions ranked 40 in the UK. It will be more difficult for top schools to apply directly. It is recommended to study for a master's degree first. "

Australia: generally apply for business or IT major.

College graduates can directly apply for master's programs in Australia, but it should be noted that there are certain restrictions on applying for majors. Generally, students are required to apply for business or IT major. Students are advised to know the specific professional requirements of the applicant in advance. Students with an average score of 75 or above can apply by providing college graduation certificates and transcripts. Australia's four-star university, Dean University, Deakin University, which is famous for its business majors such as accounting, and James Cook University, which is famous for IT and tourism management, all offer postgraduate courses.

College students can choose the way of upgrading from junior college to undergraduate college and directly apply for Australian undergraduate courses. For example, the University of Sydney, the University of New South Wales and other "big eight" famous schools have set up undergraduate programs.

New Zealand:

Schools that accept special master's degrees basically offer various business majors in Auckland Business School, New Zealand's largest city, and have a good reputation in Auckland; In addition, Waikato Institute of Technology, Massey University and Auckland University of Technology all accept postgraduate degrees.

Ireland:

For children from working-class families, you can choose an affordable and cost-effective Irish graduate program. Ireland, which has the same educational system as Britain, can also obtain a globally recognized master's diploma through "pre-master's degree+master's course". Ireland's graduate program is mainly aimed at college students and graduates majoring in business, requiring an average score of not less than 80 and an IELTS score of 6 or above, and can take the double admission channel without language. Most polytechnics offer pre-master courses.

Singapore, Malaysia:

Singapore and Malaysia also offer postgraduate courses. Through the dual courses in Singapore and Malaysia, junior college students can study for master's degrees locally and get master's diplomas from Britain, Australia and other countries at a relatively low cost. It takes 65,438+06 months for junior college students to finish their master's degree (including preparatory courses) in Singapore. However, it should be reminded that famous universities in Singapore have certain restrictions on the master's degree of domestic junior college students, especially the requirements for work experience. At present, only James Cook University Singapore in Australia accepts graduate students with no work experience.
