The news that some universities in the United States announced their acceptance of Chinese college entrance examination results was heated by the media. Before the college entrance examination this year, several universities in the United States, such as the University of San Francisco, announced that they would accept applications for Chinese college entrance examination scores, exempting applicants from providing standardized test scores such as TOEFL and SAT.
The enrollment information released by Northeastern University in the United States also shows that if you are an applicant from a high school outside the United States, the school does not require you to provide SAT or ACT scores. However, if the applicant wants to provide very competitive application materials, the school strongly recommends that the applicant provide at least one of the following exams, including AP exam, IB international preparatory certificate, three difficult IB exam results and exam results recognized by the country or region, which proves that you have the ability to complete high school and enable you to enter the university in your country. In other words, if you are a China applicant, you must provide the results of the college entrance examination.
Brown University also included the "College Entrance Examination" as an admission condition. According to the enrollment news released by official website, the admitted international students must provide their own high school graduation examination results, while China needs to provide college entrance examination results. According to the explanation of the admissions department of Brown University, if students attend ordinary high schools in China instead of the international system, they need to provide the college entrance examination results after admission.
However, we must know that there are more than 4,000 universities in the United States, and at present, only a few of them recognize the results of China's college entrance examination. In particular, students who want to enter a prestigious school should steadily improve their language scores and personal comprehensive strength to increase their chips for successful admission. In fact, there are still some ways and means to enter the world famous schools. According to the UFIDA Admissions Office, "At present, some universities in the top 100 in the world have recognized the results of the college entrance examination of UFIDA students and the independent enrollment interview results organized by UFIDA. Candidates who have passed the college entrance examination and participated in the self-enrollment interview can get the admission notice of the cooperative colleges in the project. Even if the online application of some North American universities has been closed, candidates can still get the university admission notice by virtue of the priority admission method of UFEIC University Alliance.
Canada (recognition: ★)
Most schools in Canada do not require students to provide college entrance examination results. However, some well-known universities will take the results of the college entrance examination as a reference. For example, the University of Toronto has no specific requirements for students' grades, but it is best to score above 540. McMaster University needs students to score above 520 in the college entrance examination, and the University of Waterloo needs students to score above 560 in the college entrance examination.
For China candidates, the falsification of application materials has spawned a wave of Canadian students' recognition of college entrance examination results. In order to maintain a fair entrance examination in relatively equal, some Canadian universities began to require students to provide college entrance examination results as necessary documents for application, so as to prevent other application materials from being tampered with.
A few famous universities have certain requirements for China students' college entrance examination scores, such as Toronto, UBC, McGill, McMaster, Queen, Waterloo, Western Ontario, Alberta, Victoria and other universities. Most schools do not make specific requirements for college entrance examination scores, but the success rate of admission is relatively low if the scores are lower than one (accounting for 75% of the total score).
Reminder: Not all foreign universities recognize the results of the college entrance examination.
At present, except the United States, nearly 20 countries and regions have recognized the results of college entrance examination. Earlier, the Ministry of Education said that it would actively promote foreign recognition of China's college entrance examination results. This has created more convenient conditions for domestic students to apply for studying abroad. However, in the process of promotion, we must correctly understand the recognition of college entrance examination results by foreign universities and avoid misreading. Don't simply think that foreign universities also recognize China's college entrance examination results.
The reason why so many countries now recognize China's college entrance examination results is that foreign universities generally implement independent enrollment, such as the independent enrollment examination of UFEIC University Alliance. Therefore, what grades are used as the basis for students' admission evaluation is the autonomy of the school, not the decision and requirement of government departments, which is different from the fact that all universities in Chinese mainland must adopt the results of college entrance examination as the basis for admission.
In addition, I also want to remind you that although some foreign universities recognize our students' college entrance examination results, they will not take the college entrance examination results as the only basis for admission, but take the college entrance examination results as an indicator to comprehensively evaluate students together with other indicators.
Warm reminder: If you apply for an American undergraduate course and have made up your mind to study abroad, it is better to put your time and energy into the application for studying abroad. First, you can successfully get TOEFL and SAT scores, and usually pay more attention to improving the application background in order to successfully get the offer from foreign universities. You know, as a high school student, energy and time are very limited, so it is really difficult to take into account the college entrance examination and apply for foreign universities at the same time. Without good planning and professional guidance, both parties may be delayed. I suggest you do what you can and listen to the advice of overseas consultants and experts, which will provide a good guarantee for students' further study.
