How to apply for a favorite university in Australia? Unlike the National College Entrance Examination, there is more than one way for international students to enter Australian universities. Judging from the launch time, the earliest way to enter higher education was through preparatory courses, and then the freshman express course was opened. After 20 12, Australian universities began to gradually recognize the results of the Chinese college entrance examination.
The simplest route: the score of domestic college entrance examination rises linearly.
In recent years, more and more Australian universities have begun to recognize China's college entrance examination scores, including some top universities. The college entrance examination score is higher than the second line, and the English score is better (generally IELTS 6.5 or above). With the college entrance examination results and IELTS scores, you can directly apply for a freshman in an Australian university. Generally speaking, the admission scores of eight universities in Australia (G8, eight famous universities in Australia) are required to be at least 65,438+00% to 20% higher than those in China.
This method is suitable for students with strong learning ability and good English. The University of Melbourne, one of the other eight university alliances, does not recognize Chinese college entrance examination scores.
The curve road to saving the country after failing the college entrance examination: Australian diploma postgraduate course
If you have finished the third year of senior high school in China, and your results in the college entrance examination are not satisfactory, or you haven't taken the college entrance examination yet, and you don't want to squeeze into the college entrance examination, you can try to apply for a diploma course in an Australian university (also called a freshman crash course). Use your usual high school grades to apply for a freshman diploma course in an Australian university. After studying for 8 months, you can be a sophomore if you pass the school exam.
At present, among the top eight universities, there are Australian National University (the domestic college entrance examination requires that the score of the college entrance examination should reach 65%, with only computer and humanities majors), Western Australia University (business and science), Adelaide University and Monash University, and other non-top eight universities basically offer Australian diploma courses.
The biggest advantage of this way is to save time. Freshman study can be completed in only 8 months, which is faster than one year of preparatory course. You can graduate from college in two years and eight months and get an Australian undergraduate diploma. But the time requirement is shortened, and the corresponding learning ability should be improved. This method is suitable for students with medium grades and quick learning adaptation in China.
Steady and steady route: through one-year preparatory study.
If you want to enter the top universities in Australia, applying for matriculation can improve your chances of being admitted to these universities. The general preparation period is between 8 months and one year. After passing the exam, you can enter a famous Australian school for three to four years. The biggest advantage of preparatory course is that it can have a transition period to adapt to college life abroad and lay a solid language foundation.
This method is suitable for students who are interested in further study and have sufficient time and money budget. Because it is a preparatory course, its requirements for IELTS scores are not as high as those of the college entrance examination, generally between 5 and 6. Almost all universities in Australia have their own preparatory courses, and students can choose a wide range of majors.
Vocational school students' counterattack route: apply for TAFE course
If you are not very interested in reading and have a certain practical ability, you can try to apply for TAFE (Higher Vocational and Technical Education) courses in Australia. Australia doesn't look down on vocational school students like China. Its vocational education system is developed and its courses have a long history. The courses offered by vocational schools are practical and the gold content of diplomas is not low. This diploma has been recognized by all Australian universities, the United States, the International Union of Universities (IUA) and Commonwealth countries.
Australia is in urgent need of skilled personnel, and having skills and diplomas in hand can add points for skilled immigrants in the future. The courses of TAFE College are generally designed according to the local employment needs, and most of the courses are short of jobs. It is a very attractive place and can be described as a springboard for immigrants. Coupled with low requirements for domestic academic qualifications and language scores and low tuition fees, it has become more and more popular among international students in recent years.
These Measures are applicable to domestic technical secondary school and higher vocational graduates. The majors offered mainly include hotel management, engineering/auto repair, building skills, gardening, dental technicians, community welfare, prepress technology, etc.
