Education is the building block for all knowledge. Even to admit ‘I do not know’ is the most concise start to the journey to discovery.

 

With more international students wishing to study in the UK, the average UK institution now admits more than 4,000 International and EU students from over 120 countries per year with current estimates 70% of these from China alone. 

 

From the experiences both personal and professional that I and many colleagues who have worked in the Higher Education sector it is clear how much international students need correct assistance when wanting to study in the UK.

 

Over ten plus years working in the higher education sector it has been noted that the same errors submitted by both agents and applicants time and time again which could easily be avoided with the right advice. 

 

Common errors including;

 

• What qualifications are relevant for the course I want?

• What do I submit for my contact address?

• How much is considered adequate for a personal statement?

• What should I mention in my personal statement?

• How many referees should I nominate and who?

• Do I need to submit a research project?

• The most common error is a basic misunderstanding of the course applied for.

 

As a result these common errors cost time, money and most importantly the opportunity to study in the UK.

 

The Solution;

 

Working direct in the Higher Education sector processing thousands of applications and meeting hundreds on a one-to-one basis a detailed skillset of knowledge has been nurtured over ten years.

 

This information with conjunction detailed knowledge and understanding of who and how to contact in UK Universities direct achieves the best results and avoiding unnecessary delays or in some cases lack of any response at all.

 

This detailed knowledge consists of how to understand and assess applicants academic ability regardless of their background which in over 80% of cases are from overseas.

 

This includes China whose own education system is vast compared to the UK comprising of the 211 Project Institutions as prescribed by the Ministry of Education of the Peoples Republic of China as well as those numerous institutions that do not fall under this remit and as such normally require a higher level to achieve entry unlike the 211 institutions.

 

Having over ten years’ direct experience working in the higher education sector has provided substantial knowledge of how the system works in the UK in particular in relation to international admissions in every academic field from Environmental Science to Creative Writing, International Development to World Banking Strategy, and Media Studies to MBAs.

 

As part of my role in the higher education sector I have supervised numerous applicants from individuals to large classrooms of over 30 students with the basic knowledge required to submitting an online application from start to end.

 

And this has been the case over the past two years where students who have already come to the UK but have met numerous problems with attaining a place at their intended institution of study have not only got their place but have now passed and are looking for the next step in their careers which without my knowledge would have been impossible.

 

Unlike most agents the ten years of direct experience working for UK institutions and knowing exactly not only what they are looking for in a successful candidate which in the very competitive market for studying in the UK is a distinct advantage that make the vital difference career progression.
