My classmates recommended me several American study abroad agents, and I was struggling to choose wh

I applied for VLM College, a real high-end study abroad agency, the founder is a Chinese-American, often guide us, but their threshold is relatively high, I went to their home with 2 classmates for an interview, and in the end I was left alone, my grades are better than theirs

How to judge which agent is good, the one that suits you is the best, it always hurts to compare more, the most important thing to choose a study abroad agent is to choose a good consultant.

Whether you choose a large organization with a good reputation and large scale, or choose a small and specialized consulting company, you must learn more about several institutions and shop around. Everything is comparatively speaking, how good is the level of the big intermediary teachers, and the teachers of small companies are also very likely to hide their merits and fame, and the level of experience is outstanding.

It is recommended that when choosing a study abroad agency, do not blindly pursue the fame and scale of the institution, and some institutions that are small in scale but have a very sound and complete model can also be considered.

The most important thing in finding a study abroad agency is not the size of the reputation, but the responsibility for whether your teachers are professional and responsible, and the institution with a small reputation pays attention to reputation.

Study abroad agents are legally engaged, but their businesses have their own strengths, their reputations are different, and their consultants are highly mobile. You can first check the reputation of study abroad agents in various places.

Choosing a study abroad agency requires a two-step screening:

The first step is screening: First of all, determine which school you want to apply to, each university is good at different majors and admission difficulties, and first determine your goals, so that you can be more purposeful when talking to teachers. At the same time, in the process of talking to the teacher, you should also keep your own thinking and don't be taken away.

Step 2 Screening: Many people say that study abroad agencies mainly look at teachers, which is true, but how to do it exactly? When you have a reputation for this institution, after you have an understanding of the whole, the next step is to have a good communication with your consultant, I usually look at the application cases of these teachers on the official website, the essay is the best reflection of the teacher's level, if the official website does not have it, just feedback with the consultant to see if you can get it.

In addition, when communicating with the consultant, you should ask more questions about the application of some colleges and universities, this step mainly depends on whether the consultant is professional, if it is ambiguous or there are obvious mistakes, you must be cautious!

Study Abroad Orientation Assessment.

There are many cases of applying to study abroad under various conditions and backgrounds in the study abroad volunteer reference system (figure below), and you can use the study abroad volunteer reference system.

Carry out school selection positioning and reference.

The success rate of the application is quite high.

Because I think it's comparative.

1. Collect information from various online platforms and screen from evaluations

You can go to different platforms to search for the evaluation of intermediaries, for example, Zhihu, Douban, Tieba and other platforms, there are often many international students who express their opinions and feelings in them, you can refer to them, and then comprehensively select a few intermediaries with more evaluations and good reputations, and then conduct field investigations and careful comparisons.

2. Ask your friends and classmates who have studied abroad and found an agent to listen to their recommendations

Whether it is a friend, classmate or relative, as long as you have the experience of studying abroad, or have asked a study abroad agent for help and consultation when you go abroad, you can ask them about their experience and learn from their experience, so that you can avoid detours when applying to study abroad.

The quality of an institution, in fact, you can have a general understanding by looking at the ** of consulting students, and a study abroad agent with a good reputation must have its advantages.

Three types of study abroad agencies.

Category 1: High-end small and medium-sized institutions or small studios.

Characteristics: 1. Specializing in specific countries, specific businesses or specific groups of people, with a high degree of professionalism in its main application field;

2. The quality is uneven, but the general personnel of good and high-end institutions are stable and professional;

3. The location of the institution is relatively fixed, and people who are far away from the first-tier cities will be more troublesome, so it is recommended to consult online first.

Category II: Regional medium-sized institutions.

Characteristics: 1. Lack of resources in colleges and universities, average professionalism and strength, most of them eat "local food";

2. The communication and service attitude are relatively good, and the sales are optimistic and promised, which cannot be fulfilled in the later stage;

3. Cheaper than large institutions;

4. The quality of the application is decent, most of the documents are templated, and the degree of originality and customization is low.

Category 3: Large institutions.

Characteristics: 1. It has been established for a long time, has complete qualifications, and has many old institutions;

2. The institutional fee is relatively high;

3. Most of the documents are streamlined, and the situation of setting templates is more common;

4. There are many branches, and the quality gap between the branch and the headquarters is large, so it is recommended to choose the headquarters organization;

5. The attitude of consultants of some institutions is inconsistent, and the turnover of personnel is large, and there is often a situation of changing consultants, which is prone to mistakes and difficult to protect rights.

The above content reference: Phoenix.com - When studying abroad becomes a craze after the college entrance examination, how to choose a study abroad agent?

Study abroad, how to choose a study abroad agent. It was with the help of my family that I had the opportunity to go abroad, and it may be that for many people, improving their academic qualifications and going abroad to gild is to return to China to find a good job. In fact, when I applied for the United States, I didn't think about it in such a long time, I just wanted to go abroad to experience the education system of different countries, maybe I changed the school environment, I might be interested in learning.

To tell you the truth, my academic performance was not good, and when I was in high school, I was a little tired of studying. I feel that my parents supported me to go abroad, probably because of this, and hoped that I could change the environment. Since I planned to go abroad, I began to choose a study abroad agent, and in the process of understanding, I found that many study abroad agents will make various commitments.

In fact, they didn't fully understand my situation, and I was also very confused at the time about all kinds of promises, I said that all study abroad agents are like this now? Later, I gradually realized that not every agent is like this. However, if you want to find a suitable intermediary, you still have to compare more and choose carefully.

The purpose of the intermediaries who made various promises in the early stage is to sign the contract, and after signing the contract, if they do not meet our expected requirements, they will push the responsibility to us. My friend was passing by, and his attitude changed a lot before and after signing the contract, and the service was very messy, so he had to find a new agent. I am more cautious in choosing an intermediary.

At that time, I was looking for a certain Huide with my parents, and the teachers in the later stage of their family were experienced, and it was a one-to-one service model, and the teacher would not be changed in the middle. Nowadays, many study abroad agents are many-to-one service models, each link has a corresponding teacher in charge, and these teachers are not highly experienced, many of them are just graduated from the school, they are easy to change jobs, so it leads to frequent teacher changes, and there is no way to plan well. After ZUI, the application result will be affected, and it is our applicants who are unlucky.

In addition to the late teachers of Zi Shen, the intermediary I signed also has unlimited ** communication with overseas former admissions officers, which is also very helpful for the application. In addition, the teacher in the later stage is also very helpful in terms of details, which allows me to avoid many detours.

Studying in the United States is more focused on high-end study abroad, and there are many successful cases in business and computer science in famous American universities, which are relatively more specialized.

Are you planning to find an agent, many agents are doing it when studying in the United States, so it is recommended that you use an app of [Applicant]. First, take a free study abroad assessment and determine your target university and major. Moreover, there are many students who have successfully applied on the applicant's side, which is still very reliable, you can try a software first.

You can apply to the top 20 public colleges and universities in the United States, with low fees and low thresholds.

In fact, it is not difficult, after you put forward your expectations or ideas, according to your situation and performance evaluation, the agent can better meet your expectations and help you more intimately;

Since the existence of each intermediary is reasonable, it has its own advantages and good services, so the evaluation of the quality of an intermediary is determined by the degree of suitability, and it is best to obtain the country and school as the basis, combined with their own needs and conditions to find an intermediary with a relatively high degree of fit. For example, if you want to apply for a better school if your goal is relatively high, then it is more suitable for your situation, such as Wisdom Study Abroad, which only applies to study in the United States, specializes in applying for prestigious schools, and has a high degree of concentration and professionalism, so it is more suitable and worth knowing.

It is estimated that everyone may not be able to study in the United States, after all, there are too many study abroad agents now, I don't know what the subject is looking for an agent, I think the most important thing should be whether the study abroad agent is reliable, and how about the personal ability of the teacher in charge of the study abroad agent, it is recommended that the subject go to the applicant for consultation, the applicant's study abroad teachers have many years of study abroad experience, which will be helpful to your study abroad road.

I hope the above will be helpful to the subject, and I wish the subject a smooth journey to study abroad

Good institutions = English majors in prestigious schools write essays, check the quality of essays, and other assistance. Non-English majors (turtles, IELTS high scores) are all here to mix rice. If you really have professional ability, you will go to a professional counterpart unit as soon as possible, and your job will be stable and professional!

Do you still need to come to the intermediary to eat youth meals, tired and piece-rate wages, and unstable work (the quality of the documents is not good, and there are many customer complaints and have to run away).

Intermediary = clerical + other auxiliary. Essay = English + Major.

English is number one important! Therefore, it is reliable to find someone who majores in English at a prestigious school to write an essay! This institution is reliable!

Others, non-English majors (returnees, IELTS high scores) are not reliable. They are not professional (if they are bulls, they have already been in the professional counterpart unit, the job is stable, and they are fragrant). English is also not an English major.

Therefore, customers often complain because of the quality of the documents, non-English majors have to run away, and intermediaries are often updated and replaced!

I didn't put too much effort into it.

Share two new high-end dual-teacher American study abroad consulting companies (Mingde Liren, Smart Study Abroad) Among them, Mingde Liren is very good at applying for doctoral and postdoctoral study abroad in the United States. Wisdom Study Abroad, very good at doing undergraduate and master's studies in the United States. Smart Study Abroad is additionally equipped with overseas admissions officers from the top 10 "Ivy League" universities in the United States to conduct high-end services such as document review.

You can learn about them all and choose the one that suits you.

Wisdom Study Abroad is the best I feel among the agents I have consulted, and the scale of his family is not particularly large, which may be the reason why he has not put too much energy into publicity. But very fine, focus on studying in the United States, they can be said to be great in the industry to study in the United States, the important thing is that their teachers are very responsible, with few students, can help me plan in advance, according to my situation to set up a plan, can always follow up, can always help me solve the problem in a timely manner.

We have a classmate who applied for VLM College, and his family spent more than 300,000 yuan, and he got an offer from Stanford in March this year. Just go into more detail.
