Advantages of studying in Italy
Compared with other countries, the main advantage of studying in Italy is that public education is free of tuition. Because Italian universities still retain the original tradition and do not regard education as a profitable industry, all public universities in Italy are subsidized by the government and free of tuition.
Second, the academic system is short. Italian universities implement a three-year undergraduate education system, and can also apply for five-year undergraduate and graduate students. Postgraduate education lasts for two years. Italy's traditional advantages include design (fashion design, industrial design, architectural design, jewelry design, interior decoration design, etc. ), architecture, sculpture, music, art, archaeology, cultural relics protection and restoration.
Third, the cost of living is low. Italy's undergraduate and master's study abroad costs are low. I have a Schengen visa and have been to 26 European countries. Italy is one of the 26 European Schengen countries. With an Italian Schengen visa, I can freely enter and leave 26 European Schengen countries.
As a country with strong artistic atmosphere, Italy is a good choice for art students to study abroad. Because of the low price and high quality of the school, the competition is increasing, and the requirements for applying for studying in Italy are getting higher and higher, so the language, grades, portfolio and so on need to be fully prepared.
Matters needing attention in studying in Italy
1. About family planning students and international students
The difference between planned students and international students is that planned students only enroll students in China, which is a study abroad program signed by the Italian government and our China. There are two kinds of students, namely, students of the Kyle Poirot Project and students of the Turandot Project. The former applied for comprehensive universities in Italy, while the latter was an art student, applying for Italian Academy of Fine Arts and Conservatory of Music. You need to learn the basic language of China first, and then go to Italian language school. You also need to take the exam in China, but it doesn't matter if you don't get it.
So there is no pressure of language learning in China. Planned students are more suitable for high school graduates and senior students. International students are enrolled in countries outside the European Union, so they need to learn the language well at home before going out, take the Italian proficiency test and get an Italian certificate. At that time, I went directly to take the entrance exam, and I was admitted directly after the exam. I don't need to go to Italy to learn a language.
2. About Turandot Plan and Kelpolo Plan.
The Turandot Program is specially designed for art students majoring in fine arts and music in China to apply for Italian art colleges. The Kyle Poirot program is aimed at non-art students from China who apply to Italian universities.
The above two projects are specially designed for China students.
3. About studying in Italy after graduation
For a long time, Italian universities have been characterized by lenient entry and strict exit. Italy implements the credit system, not the academic year system. In other words, you can graduate after completing all the credits. If you don't complete all the credits, you will definitely postpone graduation. It's normal to postpone graduation in Italy, but don't worry. Under normal circumstances, as long as you study hard, you can graduate normally. Italian universities have high graduation requirements. The graduation thesis of undergraduates is more than 70,000 words regardless of their major, and most universities require students to have internship experience in this major during their study.
