Question to those schooled in the UK but went on to study at a Canadian university.

Question to those schooled in the UK but went on to study at a Canadian university.?
Canadian universities require a transcript of all your past courses and grades to be sent directly the university you are applying for. Transcripts are not part of the UK system, so my question is what did you arrange to be sent to the Canadian university you applied to by your former UK school/s? Even the university I am applying to is unclear on what they will and won't accept in place of an "official" transcript, despite likely having had many British students study at their university.

Are you wanting to board or do you have family you can stay with? Do you want a state school or an independent school? Where would you like to live? If you want an independent school then go to www.independentschools.co.uk You can compare schools and fees and syllabii. State schools you need to decided which town you want to go to and then go the the Local Education Authority for information. This should be quite easy on the Internet.

As Happyjumpfrog as said above you need to decide for yourself, which college or university you want to attend and which location you want to live. Also don't forget to make sure you budget for everything, from tuition to cost of living. I would suggest you look at institutions in the north, Liverpool, Manchester, Newcastle, Leeds as they will offer a more affordable education and cheaper places to rent than in the south of England. Once you have chosen the place you want to study, applied and been accepted you will need to start the visa process. For more information about a student visa (INF 5), how to qualify for one, restrictions etc visit the website below: http://www.ukvisas.gov.uk/servlet/Front?pagename=OpenMarket/Xcelerate/ShowPage&c=Page&cid=1018721067373 If you are an American Citizen, this website will also be useful and contains a lot more information: http://www.britainusa.com/ If you need any further help, guidance or information please feel free to contact me and I would be more than happy to offer assistance. Good luck!

Hi there, If you are coming to NSW you will need to register on the NSW Department of Education teachers site - there's an online application form - you can start the process for over in the UK. (If you can't find the site - let me know - i'll send it on). They'll want evidence of quals and a statement of service etc. They've passed a new teachers' act of 2004 - basically means that any teacher who has not been in the system in NSW for the past 5 years, needs to undergo an accreditation process (yep - more shifting of paperwork and an interview). I'm a Queensland teacher and undergoing that process at the moment - more a nuisance than difficult. May be worthwhile becoming familiar with the syllabuses - google the 'board of studies' for the relevant states. Good luck with it all
