In recent years, more and more people have lamented that the threshold for entering the entertainment industry has gradually decreased. Although this is an indisputable fact, more artists choose to study abroad, thereby improving themselves and making up for their shortcomings.
Some time ago, the news that Duan Aojuan, a former rocket girl 101 member, was admitted to the Berklee Conservatory of Music and went to the United States for further study caused controversy among many netizens.
In recent years, there have been many entertainment gossip related to Duan Aojuan, and even many people have known her because of the art examination results.
So much so that she was admitted to the Berkeley Conservatory of Music in the United States, which attracted countless netizens' controversy.
Some people think that she is not qualified enough, and even some netizens directly point the finger at "Berkeley", saying that it is a "shelter for stars".
Xiaobian believes that international students who have obtained the qualification to go abroad are capable at least in some aspects.
There is a saying that Duan Aojuan herself is a powerful vocal, she once wore a school uniform with a natural sound to burst the Internet.
Being admitted to the famous music school "Berkeley" is also an affirmation of Duan Aojuan, after all, not everyone has the ability to enter this school.
In Duan Aojuan's temporary video, she mentioned that she had been preparing for studying abroad for a year and a half, and that she chose to study abroad in order to enhance her knowledge, precipitate herself, and make up for her shortcomings.
Xiaobian believes that even if the starting point of the academic background is low, as long as you are willing to work hard, you will gain, after all, only learning can make progress!
Today, let's talk to you about the academic background requirements for the application of famous schools.
Undergraduate abroad
The application requirements for undergraduates in foreign universities are relatively simple, because basically only high school, secondary school and college students will apply.
For high school students, the higher the score of the college entrance examination and the high school entrance examination, the more colleges and majors to choose. Specifically, 80% of the high school scores, the college entrance examination scores in a relatively good degree.
It will be more difficult for secondary school students to apply directly to undergraduate prestigious universities, and on the basis of excellent background results, they need to transition through supporting language courses and preparatory courses.
College graduates will be simpler, because many foreign famous schools will accept college graduates to apply for a master's degree directly, so such students will have a much less difficulty in applying for undergraduates, basically reaching the required language level and the minimum grade line.
Master's degree abroad
If you choose to study abroad for a master's degree, your undergraduate background will have a large impact, which is also a concern for many international students.
It is true that if it is a double non-university, it does lack advantages in the application of foreign famous universities, but this does not mean that it is impossible to apply to famous universities.
How can I improve my chances of success?
(1) Clear future planning
Many undergraduates are a little too casual, have no clear plan for their future, and decide to study abroad until they graduate.
This may take more time, and the application channel for elite schools may have been closed.
Therefore, it is necessary to start careful planning in advance, find specific learning directions, and make targeted efforts.
If you are faced with cross-professional choices, early planning can also learn the corresponding knowledge in advance and increase your knowledge.
Moreover, early planning can also allow yourself more time to improve your language level, after all, language improvement takes time, and it is basically impossible to pass the exam by surprise.
(2) Communicate more with people around you
When you have the idea of studying abroad, it is best to communicate with friends, teachers, parents and intermediaries, after all, your ideas are always limited. International students can synthesize everyone's suggestions, be more clear about their goals, and choose the most suitable path.
(3) Actively participate in minor courses
On the basis of completing your studies, you will take a minor course or an exchange program according to your future major. Try to contact and study different majors, different programs, these additional courses will definitely become a plus for the application of elite universities.
(4) Choose a reliable study abroad agency
Whether or not there is an intermediary varies from person to person. The study abroad agency is like an institution that integrates and processes information, because of course, the long-term cooperation knows some internal news.
Reliable intermediaries can make accurate positioning according to the actual situation of students, and put forward reasonable suggestions to make the most suitable study abroad plan for students themselves, so as to avoid spending unnecessary time and energy.
