As we all know, the "popularity" of a school in China will indirectly affect your future studies or work, and if your university is such a prestigious school, it will bring you a certain degree of advantage in all aspects.

If you study abroad, will your school background also have an impact?

Some students may say, I am studying in 985 colleges and universities, is it possible to study abroad, and I can choose any school at will?

Not really!After all, studying abroad is not the college entrance examination, the competitors are only domestic college students, studying abroad is facing thousands of applicants around the world to grab a few places, your competitors, in addition to domestic undergraduates, or overseas undergraduates, and they because of the early exposure to international education, in the application compared with domestic undergraduates will occupy a certain advantage.

Because only China has such a rating of 985 211, not all countries use this evaluation system as an important reference for evaluating applicants.

For example, in the United States, more attention is paid to the applicant's own comprehensive ability, and the admission criteria are more flexible. For example, a student Z, who majored in English from a second university in Zhejiang Province as an undergraduate, had a TOEFL score of 106, which was not low but not brilliant, but in the end, he relied on excellent essay preparation and high-quality experience as a school-level project host, and successfully got an offer from the University of Chicago, which is among the top 12 in the United States.

Another example is student M, whose undergraduate background is a law graduate from a double non-university in Shanghai, but he has published a number of high-quality ** papers during his undergraduate years, and was finally admitted to Wake Forest University, which is among the top 30 in the United States. These two students do not have a strong undergraduate background, and they can achieve their goals because they have strong comprehensive quality and rich project experience.

Of course, there are also universities that value your school background, such as many universities in the UK that value your undergraduate background, and even set different admission scores for 985,211 universities and double non-African universities, such as the University of Edinburgh, the University of Nottingham, etc.;Prestigious schools such as the University of Oxford will also relax the score limit for applicants from 211,985 universities if the application conditions are the same, and there will often be a difference of about 5 points.

Therefore, the iron also needs its own hardness, and what really plays a decisive role in the admission review is not your background, but your comprehensive quality and personal ability.

Business and other majors strive to achieve a good score of more than 700 points;The GRE should strive for a high score while paying attention to the achievement of each sub-score.

3. GPAGA is a very important item in the application for studying abroad, and it is one of the key points of foreign university inspection5 or above, you must ensure that you have excellent grades in your major courses during college. Because usually when applying for studying abroad, most foreign universities attach great importance to the study of professional courses during the undergraduate period, and use this to judge whether you are a person who loves learning and research, and at the same time will ask you to apply for a special institution to re-certify the GPA.

Additional conditions. If your undergraduate background or basic grades are not impressive, in fact, you can also start with some additional conditions to enhance your personal competitiveness.
