Other information:

Britain can be said to be an educational power, attracting a large number of students to study there every year. However, for many students who go to Britain for the first time, it is also very important to set up holidays in British universities, and international students can return to China or travel during these times. So, when is the summer vacation in British universities? How long does it usually last? How to spend the summer vacation? 1. When is the summer vacation in British universities? Christmas: two weeks off, starting from three days or a week before Christmas, depending on the school regulations. Easter: There is also a two-week holiday, which started almost three days ago or a week ago. Winter vacation: from the end of the final exam, less than a month, the Christmas holiday and winter vacation are basically separated by a few days. After Christmas, the final exam will begin, and after the exam, the winter vacation will be over. Summer vacation: August to September, one to two months. British universities can be divided into three semesters a year, which means there are three relatively long holidays each year: the first semester (winter semester): the end of September-65438+mid-February. After the first semester, you will have a winter vacation, that is, Christmas. The holiday time is generally 65438+February to 65438+ 10 every year. Although the holiday arrangements of colleges and universities will be different, they usually take about 20-40 days, usually starting three days or a week before Christmas. Second semester (spring semester): 65438+1early October-early April. After the second semester, there will be an Easter holiday, which usually lasts from the beginning of April to the end of April every year. The Easter A holiday in British universities usually lasts about 2 weeks. The third semester: from the end of April to July. After finishing the third semester course, the summer vacation begins. The holiday time of summer vacation is usually from July to August every year, which usually lasts for two months. Generally, there will be many professional exams in June, and the unqualified subjects/exams will be arranged in July. Everyone needs to adjust their time according to their major and course. The first two semesters of postgraduate courses are basically the same as undergraduate courses, but the summer vacation is cancelled. The third semester is the end of April -65438+ 10, and the third semester is mainly the time to finish graduation thesis or graduation works. Usually, graduation results will be distributed from September to 65438+ 10. Eligible boys can wait for the graduation ceremony, and those who do not meet the requirements need to wait from 165438+ 10 -66. By February 65438, usually 10, most schools will hold graduation ceremonies to issue degree certificates. At this time, everyone should pay attention to whether their visas are valid. 2. What can British universities do in summer vacation? Vacation charging: most schools and libraries don't close during the summer vacation, and occasionally go to school. There are not too many empty people, and there are no instruments and equipment that one person arbitrarily occupies. Nobody robbed you, and you don't have to wait in line. This feeling is so cool. You can also review what you left behind last semester. Returning to China during holidays: Many international students choose to go back to China for a visit. Although it is only two months, it is still very useful to be able to practice in a domestic company and accumulate some experience to pave the way for future career development. Take advantage of holidays to travel: Britain has mysterious castles, fairy-tale parks, fantastic beaches, sacred and ancient churches, peaceful and quiet villages ... There are so many places worth visiting that you will always find a yearning beauty, a charming beauty and a feeling that cannot be expressed in words. In addition, Britain is so close to Europe that visiting European countries should give you another feeling. If you can make travel plans in advance and book air tickets and hotels, you will not only get a big discount, but also reduce the complicated travel afterwards. Take advantage of holidays to work: Although the economy is somewhat depressed now, going to restaurants and supermarkets still requires a lot of manpower. Some students around me are not prepared to return to China and use the long vacation to work. Without the pressure of courses and papers, it will be relatively easier. As long as you run hard, speak sincerely, and add some personal resources, it is not difficult to find a part-time job. Taking a part-time job can not only exercise yourself, but also earn extra money, and at the same time, English will naturally improve. This is a good thing for many purposes. 3. Where can British universities travel in summer vacation? It is said that the most suitable tourist season in Europe is from June to September, and Britain is no exception. There is no shortage of attractions in summer in England. Many coastal cities and rural towns have become good places for everyone to spend their holidays. After all, they can also avoid the heat in summer. Little friends who haven't had time to apply for a Schengen visa can't go to European towns. These regrets can be forgotten, because today, the Committee will "save" everyone's travel plans. Next, the Committee recommends good places suitable for summer holidays in Britain: beaches, towns, islands, national parks and so on. There are quite a few. Come and have a look. The Isle of Wight, located in the south of England, is one of the most sunny islands in the British Isles. It is a real holiday resort, and many British people choose to live here. The Isle of Wight has not only natural scenery, but also cultural attractions, which is especially suitable for leisure and holiday. The whole island is rhombic. It has a 60-mile-long coastline, diverse terrain and a long history, attracting a large number of tourists and British residents. Needle is the most famous scenic spot in the west corner of the Isle of Wight. There are three long and narrow white cliffs in the rough sea, which extend all the way to the sea surface. At three o'clock, they form a line, like a needle, so they are called needles. There are also shops and sightseeing cable cars near the scenic spots, which are very popular with tourists. Sky Island, also known as "Sky Island", is located in the beautiful area of Scotland. Sky Island is also the largest and northernmost island in hebrides. Treasures with plans to travel to the Scottish Highlands must not miss the picturesque Sky Island. Xianchi, the famous "Xianhu Trail" on the south bank of Sky Island, doesn't this name sound fairy? Not only the name, but also its scenery is immortal. When the weather is fine, the water in the lake is blue-green, and the stones at the bottom of the lake are clearly visible. If it has just rained, maybe you can see a rainbow in the lake. This scenic spot is especially suitable for friends who like to explore nature on foot, walk around Fairy Lake and really feel the beauty of nature. Dear friends who are studying in Britain, do you know when the summer vacation in British universities is? Students can go back to China to reunite with their families during the summer vacation, or they can take this opportunity to visit the European continent more.
