Go to the American Language Center
1. The process of applying to an American language school
to apply for a language school in the United States, you need to fill in the application form and fill in some basic information. Then submit the proof of ecation and identity, such as diploma, ID , etc. Some schools need to have an interview. They should pay attention to themselves and keep themselves clean and well behaved
2. Visa processing
compared with other student visa, the refusal rate of studying abroad is relatively high
student visa (F1) is a non immigrant visa. According to the U.S. immigration law, except for the working non immigrant visa (such as H1 and L1), other non immigrant visa applicants can not have the tendency to immigrate, otherwise the visa officer can refuse the visa at his discretion. Therefore, the job of a visa holder is to prepare sufficient evidence to prove that he has no tendency to immigrate
3. Tuition feetuition fees vary in different schools in the United States, about $3000 to $5000 per year. Whether 30000 US dollars is enough or not is not easy to judge directly. It depends on the tuition fees of specific schools and personal expenses

2. These materials are used to prove that you really want to study in the United States, including:
diploma, school transcripts (such as visa has not yet got the diploma and degree certificate, need to open the certificate of reading), these are to prove that the applicant has completed the domestic stage of study, to meet the admission requirements of American universities. At the same time, the transcript can show the past learning ability and ecational background of the applicant, and prove that the applicant has the ability to successfully complete his studies in the future
original transcripts of TOFEL, GRE or GMAT. These are the language test scores specially required by American universities to prove that the applicant has enough language level to study and live in the United States

3. Financial documents needed to complete the study

language schools in the United States are not regulated uniformly, so it depends on which one you go to and its specific requirements. There will be investment promotion pages on the official website. But generally speaking, you can get on with money, and you can spend about $10000 to $15000 a year on oil
the cost of living also depends on where you are. It's impossible for so many cities in the United States to list them for you one by one, but basically, the ones close to the two sides of the Strait are more expensive, and the ones in the middle are cheaper. As for CET-4, it's a domestic test, which has nothing to do with going abroad... Moreover, many language schools still hope that you can do nothing, the worse your English is, the better they will make money, right
if you have any questions, please come to me and I will answer them for you
one is to apply for double admission (one year language + postgraate), that is, conditional admission (two admission documents). First to the school's language center to learn English for one year, after passing the test, directly study for postgraate, no need to test T, G, no need to return home. If you have a good command of English, you only need half a year of language courses (you can take graate courses in the first year)
1. Choose a University (postgraate course) similar to your level
2. Choose a university with double admission (the university has a language center and provides double admission)
in this case, you have to pay your own expenses, and there is no scholarship opportunity in the first year. Your English will improve quickly
Second, you can also go to New Oriental for tutoring in China, take the T and G test again, and apply again next year. It's going to cost you a lot less. And you can apply for scholarships directly, if you apply for a doctorate.
you don't need anything
as long as you spend money
you will go
if you want to read a book,
you also need junior high school and senior high school transcripts
as for those who don't focus on it,
Americans don't know that there are still key schools in China,
if you want to read a master's degree, you just need to apply to learn a language.
it seems a bit unreasonable
I don't know Photo + student visa; r\ N transcripts, birth certificate, kinship certificate, tuition certificate, Coe, ecation certificate, the most important thing is to bring yourself and money
let's see what others say.
many students will ask whether they want to go to the United States after taking the TOEFL or IELTS test in China, or to go to the United States directly to study the language through double admission? Which of these two ways is more suitable
first of all, the expenditure of a language school can not be ignored, so the ratio of expenditure to income is the primary concern of whether to study in a language school. In addition, there are many questions just like the question of going abroad to study for Undergraates: will you be too young / too old; Will the pressure be too small, idle; Will it be too much pressure to control
let's talk about the advantages of reading languages in the United States<
language environment
when learning a language in China, English is used to teach and communicate in class, but the time of learning English every day is only in class or when reading at home. But in English speaking countries, not only in the classroom, as long as you don't sleep, you are always receiving information in English. You can say that you are learning English at any time, so the speed of improvement must be much faster than in China. For the exercise of the ability to use English, this environment is very good<
social integration
if you go to the United States to read a language, you will not only improve your language ability, but also contact the American society. After a period of life, you will be able to fully adapt to the learning and life style of the United States. If you are studying in China, you will still have to go through the adaptation stage in the United States, even though your grades meet the requirements, which will greatly affect the study of professional courses. This is also the reason why many Chinese students' GPA in the first year in the United States is low, which will affect their further study
application time
for many universities that can offer conditional admission, if the students' standard language test scores meet the requirements before the application deadline, they will not be able to apply successfully. If you want to continue to apply and record directly, you have to wait for next year. But if you choose double admission, you can enter this school relatively easily. As long as you improve your language ability, you can learn professional courses. This cycle can be as short as three months to six months. Compared with waiting for a year to reapply, this method can save time and ensure the quality of learning. For the students who have reached a certain level of language proficiency, some schools even give them a certain opportunity to complete the language courses while taking some basic undergraate courses<
understanding the life of studying abroad
using the time of language project, students can experience and evaluate the life of studying abroad, verify and evaluate their choices, and evaluate whether they like and are suitable for the school and environment they are studying in. For some students, this short time allows them to make new choices and have more time and opportunity to apply to other schools<
