September ~165438+1October: Submit the application.
Different schools apply for different opening hours, and some schools apply for opening hours relatively late, so we must pay attention to the opening hours of the target schools. At the same time, the application deadline for some majors in some schools will be earlier, which requires special attention from applicants. It is best for the institutions applying to ensure that they are submitted at the same time. Although the proofreading speed varies, they will try their best to ensure that the results come out together. Students applying for master's courses can apply directly through the online application system of the selected university or the corresponding international admissions office.

Generally, the admission results will come out one after another from 4 weeks to 8 weeks after the application is submitted, but it may also exceed this time period. After you get the offer, you should carefully read the requirements on the offer, such as whether there is a deadline for accepting the offer, whether you need to pay the reservation fee, the deadline for payment, and the deadline for lodging application.
February to May of the following year: apply for a language class.
