Introduction to the current situation and characteristic disciplines of Chinese students studying in the UK!
Among them, the United Kingdom is the most popular because it has a long history and the teaching system is ahead of the world. In addition, public order in the UK is relatively good, so students can feel a better learning atmosphere. In recent years, due to changes in the world situation, many people have shifted the purpose of studying abroad to the UK, and the competition between prestigious British universities has become more intense. What is the current situation of Chinese students studying in the UK? Let's take a look.
What is the current situation of Chinese students studying in the UK?
The current market situation and development direction.
China is the country with the largest number of foreign students applying to UK universities. In 2023, 1 out of 5 international students and 1 out of 4 foreign students (1 4) are Chinese students.
In China, 33,195 students submitted through UCAS, 23,225 in Wales and 18,015 in Northern Ireland.
The admission rate of Chinese students is 524%, far more than the proportion of international students from other regions (46%).
UCAS expects the number of students studying in the UK to continue to grow, with expectations to reach 50,000 by 2030. However, due to factors such as global competition, geopolitics and national politics, the increase in the number of UK applicants is not fully guaranteed.
Chinese began to register in advance.
In 2022, 46% of Chinese applicants were 18 years old.
Looking at the current breakdown of men and women, 53 per cent of Chinese women are admitted to UK universities, compared to 52 per cent of male students.
As a whole, Chinese students think earlier about how to study abroad.
Forty-seven percent of Chinese students prefer to study in secondary schools between the ages of 11 and 14, while 53 percent prefer to study in secondary schools between the ages of 15 and 18.
Fourteen percent of Chinese primary school students (11 years old or younger) had wanted to pursue a university education abroad, a figure of 12 percent.
