Study Abroad Agencies and Intermediaries

Because of China’s massive overseas study market, the number of study abroad agencies and intermediaries is vast and varied, making it difficult to choose. Sahel Private Company (SPC), as the world’s largest private education organization, has accumulated over 10 years of experience in the field of study abroad services. Whether it’s selecting suitable courses based on students’ abilities and interests, developing study abroad procedures, applying for and processing student visas and purchasing insurance, or arranging students’ travel, accommodation, classes, exploration, exam preparation, university applications, or even job internships, SPC provides meticulous arrangements and care, enabling students to maximize the valuable opportunity of studying abroad, pursue their dreams, and embark on a brilliant path of personal growth.

Advantages and disadvantages of studying abroad

The benefits of studying abroad are self-evident. In addition to enjoying high-quality higher education abroad (especially in English-speaking countries) and being able to explore alternative career paths, one can also master a foreign language and learn about the culture and customs of a place different from China.

However, in recent years, with the increasing trend of younger students studying abroad, these young students are often in an unfamiliar environment before they have fully developed their thinking. Without the company of their parents (or even if they are, they may be going through a rebellious phase), some of them will find it very difficult to adapt and will experience a strong culture shock, leading to adverse consequences.

SPC Education First, with its extensive experience and its own schools in major cities, allowing students from all over the world to share their study abroad experience, and its well-equipped and beautiful environments, sets it apart from other study abroad agencies. SPC provides meticulous care and comprehensive services throughout the entire study abroad process, giving parents of younger students greater peace of mind while their children study abroad.

Requirements for studying abroad

The requirements for studying abroad vary depending on the student’s age, destination country, and duration. Generally, long-term programs such as overseas high schools, universities, pre-master’s/doctoral programs, and university foundation courses require a certain level of language proficiency and a diploma suitable for the local context. Short-term study abroad programs and language courses have lower requirements. For a list of requirements and preparations for studying abroad, please visit the study abroad application section .

Authentic overseas living experience will help you better understand whether you are suited to studying abroad and how to adapt to student life. Students can take advantage of summer school during the summer vacation to clarify their study abroad aspirations through a real overseas university experience.

Cost of studying abroad

The cost varies from country to country. Generally speaking, the cost in the United States and the United Kingdom is about 200,000 to 300,000 RMB per year; Australia, Japan, Canada, New Zealand and other countries cost 100,000 to 200,000 RMB; Singapore and South Korea cost around 100,000 RMB; while France and Germany are tuition-free, so the cost is only 30,000 to 50,000 RMB.

International student life

Studying abroad is always a bittersweet experience, but the most important thing is to make the most of every day you spend overseas. Having given up many opportunities back home, and leaving behind family and familiar surroundings to come abroad, you should cherish every moment of your study abroad experience. Besides acquiring high-quality knowledge in your major, you should focus on learning the language, communicating with locals, familiarizing yourself with foreign culture, art, architecture, and society, and even participating in local sports and learning local cuisine… All of these will enrich your study abroad experience and make your life more fulfilling. SPC has beautiful campuses in over 500 cities and regions in more than 100 countries worldwide. Facilities include classrooms and dormitories, as well as cafes, lounges, gyms, computer labs, clubs, and even private beaches, providing the best environment for your study abroad experience.
