First, the student's performance requirements
University grades are mainly determined according to the specific requirements of target schools and target majors.
Under normal circumstances, students are required to study in domestic universities for more than one year, with an average score of more than 75 points. In addition, students are advised to provide certain language achievements. If English is the applicant's second language, they need to submit recognized English test scores.
In this kind of English test to evaluate students' English ability, TOEFL and IELTS are most widely accepted by schools. This will shorten the time of studying abroad, and it will also be beneficial to visa application.
Second, the school refund policy after transfer
If the student has been admitted to another school before transferring to another school and has paid the tuition deposit. Under normal circumstances, transfer in the province does not need to update the study permit.
Unless you transfer from middle school to college or university or from college or university to middle school; In another case, when students transfer from one province to another, they need to change their study permit. (See the note on the study permit for details). However, if students finish the formalities of dropping out of school, have no school or can't enter school in time because of the Studypermit problem, it will be very serious.
Each school has its own refund policy. Therefore, students must communicate with the school before transferring. How much tuition can they refund if they transfer in advance? Because of the one-year tuition fees paid by students to the school before the start of school (in some schools, it is half a year), the school will not refund the remaining tuition fees. All refund questions must be communicated directly with the school by the students themselves.
Third, you need to know the application time for transfer.
When considering the transfer plan, students should know the application requirements and credit course requirements of transfer schools in advance. Each school or different major has its own specific application deadline, which is generally about half a year before admission.
It is suggested that students submit their application materials one year in advance, because it also involves the evaluation of transfer credits by the academic Committee of the university applying for it, and the acceptance period is long, and various emergencies should be taken into account, so students should submit their applications as soon as possible.
Fourth, transfer credits to apply for majors
It is very painful for students to study a major they don't like, and it is understandable to change majors.
In Canada, in addition to transferring credits to overseas students to continue their undergraduate studies, domestic college graduates can also transfer credits when applying for undergraduate studies, but the number of credits transferred is related to the students' professional performance, language performance and the matching degree between the courses studied in China and the applied majors.
Among them, the most crucial one is the last one. If your major at home matches your major abroad, the more credits you can transfer. The main way for foreign universities to understand these contents is to examine your course description in detail.
Note that in the process of discussing credit transfer with the school, students should inform the school of the detailed information of the course as soon as possible, so that the school can review and obtain the results of credit transfer as soon as possible.
Before you apply to change your major, you must have a detailed understanding of the major you want to apply for, including application difficulty, content, courses, employment prospects and so on. Don't change your major blindly.
5. Not all majors accept transfer.
There is a wide range of choices for liberal arts students to change their majors. For example, language students can transfer to media, translation, journalism, education and other majors. Students majoring in literature and history or sociology or psychology can switch to journalism or accounting.
Science graduates have advantages in development prospects and salary. Therefore, it is suggested that science students transfer to the target major closely related to their major, so that the content of professional courses will not be much different and students will not be particularly hard to read.
If your major span is too large, you should consider providing more supporting materials during the application process, which is more conducive to applying to a good school. It should be noted that medical schools and law schools in Canada currently do not accept applications from international students.
Six, language transcripts (provided according to the requirements of the school)
If students need to transfer credits between universities, they also need the course description and grading standard of the subject.
Universities in Canada generally recognize each other's credits, but the specific situation still requires students to contact the dean of the school.
Under special circumstances, for example, students have minored in related courses of Canadian study abroad application major or have relevant work or internship experience in applying for major, so it is best for students to emphasize the explanation and provide relevant supporting materials.
In addition, with the increasing number of domestic applicants, the proportion of academic performance in applications is also increasing. For students who plan to transfer to Canada for undergraduate studies, they must maintain good university grades during their school days, and at the same time, they can participate in some social practice activities or meaningful public welfare activities in their spare time, which is conducive to increasing the success rate of admission.
7. Materials and certificates to be prepared for transfer, application form for admission, and university study certificate.
Application fee (no matter whether the application is successful or not, this fee will not be refunded to the applicant. The specific expenses range from tens of Canadian dollars to hundreds of Canadian dollars), high school education certificates and transcripts (with English translation), and all middle school, college or university education certificates and transcripts after high school (with English translation).
