( 2003-10-22 13:59) (Xinhua)
The Ministry of Education has warned students to carefully choose foreign
schools for study abroad, amid reports about Chinese students being ripped off
in some countries.
Efforts had been made to step up control over the activities of local
agencies that help Chinese students go abroad, said the ministry.
The ministry has published a list of schools in 21 nations, including the
United States, the United Kingdom, France, Germany, Japan, Canada and Australia,
on its two websites: www.jsj.edu.cn and www.cscse.edu.cn.
Before choosing a school, students should consult relevant sources, such as
the overseas studies service center of the ministry, foreign embassies, and
officially-approved intermediate companies, the ministry said.
It advised students to learn about the real situation of the schools from
reliable sources and not to be taken by bogus advertising.
Hot lines on 010-82300056 and 82301008 were open to the students, together
with an email address: interco@stnet.cscse.edu.
