Because the intermediary industry of studying abroad is a sham, black intermediaries are rampant. Therefore, when choosing a reliable intermediary, we must conduct a comprehensive investigation.

Generally speaking, there are many foreign cooperative institutions in the intermediary, but some are second-and third-rate schools or other small projects in the name of first-class universities. The study agent can choose its partner institution to detain the student's admission notice. Therefore, when contacting the study abroad agency, we must attach great importance to school selection and inspection, and we should not be credulous.

2) IELTS (English is the International English Language Testing System).
It is an international English proficiency test jointly organized by the British Council, the Local Examinations Board of Cambridge University and the Australian Agency for International Education and Development. Mainly recognized by Commonwealth countries (Britain, Australia, Canada, New Zealand, etc.). ), and now some American universities have recognized IELTS scores.
2. Entrance examination

GRE (short for GRE) is an American postgraduate entrance examination, which is suitable for postgraduate examinations in various disciplines and majors except for LSAT scores and GMAT scores. It is an important basis for American graduate schools to select and train senior research talents, and it is also one of the important reference conditions for university graduate schools to decide whether to provide scholarships to applicants.

Test (ACT) is one of the important reference indicators for American colleges and universities to decide admission and evaluate scholarships. ACT is also recognized by many American universities, but most of them are in the midwest.
Step 4: Prepare application materials 1 and standardized test scores (official transcripts such as TOEFL, IELTS, GMAT and GRE).
2. Transcript of senior high school/university/postgraduate stage (stamped by the academic affairs office of the school or notarized by a professional institution)

In order to get information, express yourself and win scholarships. In the process of magnetization, we need to think carefully about the way of magnetization, grasp some details at the same time, and finally do it persistently. Before, someone changed more than 10 email accounts to engage the same professor, and finally succeeded.
2. Interview. In other words, before the formal offer is issued by the school, it is necessary to understand the communication ability of students and verify the authenticity of the information in the application materials through remote meeting and on-site interview with the applicant. Finally, introduce the situation of the school to students and understand their real interest in the school. Interview plays a very important and even decisive role in the admission process of American universities.
Step 6: Visa preparation is the last step in the whole process of applying for studying in the United States. Generally speaking, applicants can pass safely. But there are exceptions, so we should be prepared to face American interviewers with the best face and positive attitude.

1. Applicants must prove their ability to become full-time students in the United States.
Applicants must also prove that the sole purpose of their short stay in the United States is to complete their studies in established academic institutions. In particular, it is necessary to rule out immigration tendencies.
3. Applicants must also prove that they have the ability to pay tuition fees and living expenses required during their stay at school.
