When communicating with friends who plan to go to Spain, I found that many students blindly believe in the intermediary, so let's unveil the mystery of the intermediary for studying abroad ~
What role does the study agent play in applying for offer?
Advantages of study abroad intermediary: formal intermediary has a special analysis and evaluation of everyone's situation and is familiar with the preparation of various materials. At least in Spain, agents usually establish cooperative relations with foreign universities. Students are clients of the intermediary. If one of the students has a problem with his application, the intermediary will put pressure on the department in charge of university admission from the standpoint of the client. After all, applying for an offer from a foreign university is a strange field for us, and it is at least psychologically practical to have professional help.
Disadvantages of studying abroad intermediary: it is easy to find an intermediary, but the cost of studying abroad will increase. Is the agency fee at least 1W? In addition, the current study abroad market is mixed, and there are not many unreliable black intermediaries. Remind the friends who decide to go to the intermediary, be sure to be vigilant and choose a responsible and reliable intermediary, so that your road to studying abroad will be much smoother from the beginning.
Then how can we skip the intermediary and study in Spain by ourselves?
Let's talk about the application time first: it takes almost half a year from applying for the master's offer of the school to getting a visa. Friends who plan to study abroad this year, do it now! Yes! All right! Move it. Get up! Come on! Yes!
Then there are the application steps: generally speaking, I divide the application for this half year into two parts. First, I apply for an offer from the university. Second, I apply for a visa.
The entrance requirements and application materials for each major in each school are definitely different, but two things are necessary materials:
1. University transcripts for four years
2. University diploma. If you haven't graduated, you can use your student status certificate.
How and where to handle it: translate the above two items into Spanish, affix the official seal of the translation company, notarize them at the notary office where the household registration is located, and then take the notarial certificate for double authentication (namely, the authentication of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of China and the authentication of the Spanish consul). If you are not in a hurry, you can send it to the foreign affairs office in your city. If you are in a hurry, you can find an agent center, which is a little more expensive.
3. Postgraduate certificate: generally handled in the Academic Affairs Office of undergraduate universities.
In addition, in general, if the Spanish level exceeds B2, you can directly enter this major. Language ability can be proved by DELE or cet-4 certificate of Spanish major in China. But the latter needs translation and fair authentication.
