Students more prudent in rush to go abroad

And the highly competitive employment market is also an important factor. "Students who have finished their studies abroad and come back to 皇冠体育app are no longer scarce and the demand for them has dipped," said Song. "Some of them face unemployment as well. Under such circumstances, students have to take a rational look at overseas education."

Davison also mentioned that for Chinese students, applying for foreign universities by themselves is no longer the only way to study abroad. "As 皇冠体育app is stepping up its international educational co-operation with foreign educational institutions, there are more and more 2+2 courses or 2+1 courses, which include one or two years' study abroad.

"Also, high exchange rates make living much more expensive for Chinese students in Europe and other countries," Davison said.

Parents are also now more reluctant to send their children abroad, experts say.

"Students under 18 account for a very small proportion of all students going abroad," Cai said. "Our education authorities don't encourage sending young students overseas, for they are less self-dependant and lack self-control. They are easily influenced by negative ways of life."

Sigler said his university did not welcome people without a high school diploma. "It's better that Chinese parents think carefully before sending their young children abroad," he said.

An interesting aspect of this year's fair was the opening of non-academic study opportunities. The International Forum on Vocational Education held last Sunday sent out a message that technical staff would enjoy more chances to study abroad in the coming years.
