Other information:

From world-famous universities to innovative teaching methods and cutting-edge teachers, Britain has everything you need to realize your potential. Postgraduates in Britain are divided into teaching system and research system. Most teaching graduate students can complete their studies within one year, and they can apply for a PSW visa for two years after graduation, which is convenient for students to practice and find job opportunities, and is the first choice for most students and parents; The research master's degree is for students who want to continue to apply for a doctorate. The academic system is two years. Many international students choose to go to the UK for postgraduate study. When does postgraduate study in Britain begin? 1. When will the British graduate school start? The education systems of British universities and China universities are different. A year is divided into three semesters, and the starting time of different stages is not the same. Generally speaking, from the middle and late September to before Christmas, that is, the British New Year, this is the first semester, and then from the middle and early September to the beginning of April is the second semester. After about two weeks' holiday, the last semester begins in May and ends in June and July. It is common to start school in September. In Britain, undergraduate, undergraduate preparatory course, master's degree and master's preparatory course are usually the biggest opening season and the mainstream admission time. Most students enter Britain at this time to start their studies. However, there are also different situations. For example, the opening season of some schools is 1 and May, so the flexible opening mode is also aimed at students with some special circumstances. Study abroad and postgraduate study in Britain generally begin in September, 65438+ 10. The result is usually 4-8 weeks after the British graduate application. The completeness of application materials has a great influence on the time of admission results. As long as the materials are complete, it will usually be quick. If it exceeds, it may be that your materials are incomplete or your email has not been answered. You should keep in touch with the university at any time. I suggest you start applying in advance. The earlier you apply, the more likely you are to be admitted. Second, the British postgraduate application conditions 1. Language conditions To apply for a British graduate student, you must first have a certain language ability. Generally speaking, the IELTS requirement is above 6.5-7.0, depending on the requirements of the applicant school and major. Some schools have higher requirements, such as Cambridge University, which requires IELTS score above 7.5. 2. Education Going to the UK for postgraduate study generally requires a bachelor's degree or above, and a bachelor's degree certificate and degree certificate are obtained. If you want to apply for a postgraduate degree in Britain, you can apply for a master's degree first and then apply for a postgraduate degree. 3. The requirements for applying for graduate students in the UK generally depend on the background institutions. Generally, the average score of 985 or 2 1 1 universities is above 80, and the average score of double non-universities is above 85. Some schools and majors have higher requirements, which may require more than 90 points, while others have lower requirements, with an average score of 75-90 points. 4. Other conditions To apply for a British graduate student, you need to submit certain materials, such as transcripts, diplomas, degree certificates, personal statements, etc. In addition, you need to submit a portfolio to apply for art majors. Third, the British postgraduate application materials 1, transcripts and related materials transcripts play a decisive role in the application of British universities, and are also a very key indicator for the school to judge whether the applicant is suitable, so the requirements for transcripts provided by the school are very high. In addition to the formal report card, it should be clearly visible in both Chinese and English, with the seal of the school. The scores shown on the report card have a percentage system, ABCD binary system, or more complicated ones, such as passing or failing, excellent or poor, and so on. This will also cause some trouble for the school to judge the average score, so you may be asked to provide corresponding standards between different grades. For example, "excellent" corresponds to 4.5-5.0 out of 5, and 90 out of 100. 2. Pay attention to the certificate/diploma and degree certificate. When students get diplomas and degree certificates, they must remember to issue corresponding English documents, especially those who are going to study languages in the UK in advance. 3. Passport If you have a past record in the UK, especially for study or study tour, including summer school, you must inform the school of this experience and provide the visa page and entry and exit stamp page at that time, so that the school can make a proper judgment on the students' previous experience in the UK. 4. IELTS test preparation IELTS scores vary from university to university, and there are some differences between majors. If students go to Britain to study undergraduate, postgraduate or above courses in British higher education institutions that are not "highly trusted guarantors", or go to Britain to study preparatory courses and language classes, they must provide UKVI test scores. In fact, the IELTS score of UKVI (visa and immigration IELTS) is often indicated on the Offer with language conditions issued by the school to students. 5. Letter of recommendation and recommender Regarding the letter of recommendation, it is required to be printed on the school stationery with the signature and date of the recommender. Note: If you are a student who postponed the application, please reprint it and ask the teacher to sign it when you apply again, because some schools will require that the recommendation letter be signed within six months. In addition, please be sure to provide the edu e-mail address of the referee, because providing other e-mail addresses such as QQ, Netease or Sina e-mail address is not recognized. Regarding the selection of referees, students who have not graduated or just graduated must provide teachers from two schools as referees, and they must also be teachers who teach their own courses. Because most colleges and universities require two letters of academic recommendation when applying. For referees who have graduated for a long time, it is best to prepare three letters of recommendation, two academic letters and one letter of recommendation from the leader of the work unit. In this way, you can be prepared. 6. All kinds of award-winning certificates play a icing on the cake in the application, generally referring to all kinds of award-winning certificates, scientific research project experience, volunteer certificates, etc. Basically, colleges and universities have no mandatory requirements for this. 7. Internship/Work Proof The work certificate will also play a great role in the UK application, which is not suitable for most students who have no long-term work experience. Of course, if you want to prepare the work or internship certificate, you must make detailed preparations as required. 8. Prepare additional materials, such as GMAT, GRE, essays, writing samples, etc. G5 financial professional recommendation, as well as the portfolio required by architectural design major, or some majors and schools are required to participate in interviews. Fourth, the UK postgraduate application schedule 1. Choosing a school and major-time: The first step in applying from February to June is to see which majors and universities are suitable for you. This is similar to filling in a volunteer university after the college entrance examination. However, students find it difficult to compare school rankings: the closer the year, the better, and the comprehensive ranking and professional ranking must be seen. Geographical location of the school: depending on personal preferences, each has its own advantages and varies from person to person. Consciousness at home and abroad: you should pay attention to this. If you choose an unknown foreign university in China, it will be much more difficult for you to return to China for employment than students from well-known universities in China, because there are many "unknown" HR. 2. Prepare application materials-Time: June-September Tips: When students are looking at schools and majors, you can start preparing application materials for studying in the UK! Because the materials needed to apply for British universities are similar, very few schools can prepare the materials later. 3. Start application-time: September-65438+February. You can apply when the application materials are fully prepared! From September to 65438+February, most British universities have opened their applications, and students can submit application materials directly. But remind me that you must apply for studying in the UK early, because there are so many places in many schools that you are a few steps behind others. No matter how excellent, it may be rejected because there is no position. 4. Wait for the offer and make up the IELTS score-time: 1- June of the following year. After submitting the application, you can only wait for the result. Quotations are generally divided into agreement and disagreement. If con scores your average score and IELTS, you can continue to brush these scores, or apply for language courses in the school in the following days. If you get IELTS scores, you can change schools to uncon, or apply for language courses in schools. After the language courses are passed, it is also possible to change the language courses to uncon with certificates. After hundreds of years of development, the British education system is famous for its extremely high teaching quality. All educational institutions in Britain have written regulations to ensure the high quality of the courses they teach, and the certificates issued are recognized all over the world. Students who have received offer from British schools can pay attention to when British graduate students will start school, and get ready to start your study abroad life as soon as possible!
