First of all, remember some things not to do and avoid stepping on the pit:

1. Don't look for agencies with high agency fees (hundreds of thousands or millions of agency fees).

2. Don't be infatuated with foreigners or overseas institutions. In order to increase their selling points, many institutions find many foreigners to fool their students, and then many China students and parents buy it. In fact, without a mature study abroad market, there can be no mature study abroad experts. And those so-called former admissions committees or admissions officers (we can't tell whether they are true or not), even if they are true, they know some policies and directions of their own schools. Even so,

3. It's best not to find an organization that is too small and has no entity. Security and stability are all problems. Once something goes wrong, our property and time will be lost, and the loss will outweigh the gain.

4. Don't be obsessed with online grading and ranking, because there are no professional grading standards and ranking institutions in this industry.

5. Don't give up eating because of choking. Many students and parents give up some companies completely because of some comments made by friends or online, and they are not interested in asking questions. Actually, this is not right. Institutions must compare more, visit more and communicate more. Because most teachers in an organization are serious and responsible, it is not excluded that there are individual black sheep.

For students who want to find an agent for studying abroad, but don't know how to choose, they can go to the third-party neutral platform of the study abroad supervision network to get the free recommendation of the agent for studying abroad, and they can inquire about the information and reputation of the agent.

Several key considerations in selecting institutions;

1. scale: you can try to choose a larger institution, because there are more cases in large institutions, better teachers, stronger ability to deal with accidents and more secure funds, especially for parents and students looking for institutions in different places.

2. Sign up for the team: looking for an institution to find the last one is to find a teacher you recognize. Therefore, in the process of consultation and comparison, we should not only communicate with the teachers in the early stage, but also communicate with the teachers in the later stage.

3. Location of institutions: The best overseas study institutions in China are basically concentrated in first-tier cities such as Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou. The teams of overseas study institutions in first-tier cities are more talented, mostly teachers with overseas study experience.

4. Product type: The study abroad industry is not only a simple application, but also a lot of planning, such as language test (TOEFL, GMAT, GRE, etc. ), background enhancement products (internship, scientific research, papers, etc. ) and some related overseas services.

5. Don't make yourself white: Now the network is very developed and the information is very rich. Now you can go online more and learn more about similar situations with yourself, so that you won't be easily fooled when consulting.

At the same time, it can be located by one-click through the volunteer reference system for studying abroad. Look at the schools where students with similar college backgrounds have been.
