COVID-19 has a bad influence on studying in Europe. What are the difficulties in applying for studying in Europe during the epidemic? During the epidemic, the biggest difficulty for China students to apply for studying in Europe lies in the cancellation of a series of key study abroad exams. The core of TOEFL, IELTS, GRE, Telford and other study abroad exams have issued notices to suspend the examination time. In view of this situation, many European universities have adjusted their current policies: some universities in Britain have extended the deadline for submitting IELTS scores, and some institutions have directly postponed the deadline for China students to apply.

Apart from the cancellation of exams, another factor that prevents China students from applying for studying in Europe is the delay in visa processing and approval. Affected by the epidemic, some European visa centers have not fully resumed normal operation at this stage, which will have a certain impact on visa processing. For this matter, some European countries, such as France, have conducted recruitment interview evaluation for candidates in the form of online video.

What do international students think? Students who have applied to study in Europe, students who have applied to study in Europe and China students who will study in Europe in the second half of the semester are the people who suffer the most from this epidemic. It is suggested that these students should always pay attention to the development of official website in colleges and universities, and immediately keep in touch with the admissions officers, feedback the current situation, and look for other application methods, such as online interviews and online classes.

According to the data released by QS, 96% of the respondents in China said that it is not easy to terminate their study abroad plans because of the popularity of novel coronavirus. According to IIE's "Project Atlas" statistics, in 20 19, China remained the largest source country for international students from Japan, Australia, the United States, New Zealand, Britain and Germany, and the total number of international students from China accounted for 4 1.38%, 36.58%, 33.74% and 32.70% respectively.

However, in some unpopular European countries, such as Finland and Sweden, China students account for less than 10% of the total number of students in their foreign countries. Compared with 20 18, the total number of international students in China on 20 19 has not changed much.
