Shanghai Lida College, formerly known as Shanghai Lida Vocational and Technical College, was upgraded to an undergraduate college this year. Judging from the information in official website, there are still relatively few undergraduate majors, so it is basically impossible for this college to recruit exchange students. However, the so-called "through" courses in the school are packaged as embedded preparatory courses, and even the international exchange center in official website has introduced these two projects, but in fact.

So what is embedded preparatory course? This is a pre-master degree. Generally, educational companies that offer this course cooperate with schools to recruit students. Students in this school use their spare time or holidays to study, and then when they graduate, in addition to the diploma issued by the school, their degree certificates and transcripts can be certified and scored in the preparatory course. Before graduation, they applied for foreign universities by virtue of their university study experience and achievements and their preparatory study experience. Then the university will issue a conditional admission, with university grades, matriculation grades and language grades. Students can change to unconditional admission before graduation, and then they can go abroad smoothly So the advantage of this course is that it saves time and money compared with overseas masters. The disadvantage is that there are too few docking majors and schools, and they are not top schools. The teaching content of such courses should include English language training (namely IELTS training) and specialized basic courses for docking majors, which should be basically the same as the pre-master courses offered by foreign education groups. However, domestic course providers are only willing to offer courses and majors related to business in order to reduce costs, so such projects in China are basically docked with business majors in foreign universities.
