希望你不是被拒签的，而是gawker，来看热闹的。如果你是已经在订机票的，那恭喜你。请你去看海归回国薪资调查之类的贴子，那些东东才是你该看的。如果你是被拒签的朋友们，那么希望你看完这个贴子后重新鼓起勇气去拿你的签证。

开始讨论之前要特别强调一点：美国、英国、澳大利亚、加拿大、纽西兰的签证从来没有说三签之后就没有机会了！！！你的机会一样是有的，能不能拿签证同你将碰到什么样的VO和那天你是否看见黑猫无关，仅仅同你自己有关。

如果你是被英国拒的，你需要做的是改变自己。要改变自己的思维方式，思考方法，说话的习惯等等，最痛苦的是要在短时间内做到。虽然会很痛苦，很无奈，很疲惫，但只要你做了，你一定可以拿到你的签证。

请你们先看我写的这两个贴子。下面是去年我为一位三签的申请人写的申诉信。幸运的是，他拿到了他的签证。希望大家看了可以明白其中的思想。

最后想再强调一点，就是你一定要有反抗精神。前两天在网上看到有人被印度阿三拒了，主要原因有不能证明自己是一个有连续学习能力的学生，所以不是一个学生。我怒的是，难道要证明申请人是一个学生不是由大学教授来决定而是由一个可能大学本科学位都没有的英国小青年来判定？！荒谬！所以他的怀疑是完全错误的！他根本不具备资格这样评判申请人。从申请人的角度来说，你是否是一个学生及你的学习能力完全应该由录取你的大学的教授们来判断。所以下一次还有哪个VO敢这么刁难你，你完全可以自信地回答他/她：XX大学的教授在评估过我的申请后认为我是完全在学术上够资格的（academicly qualified）。我想请问你为什么认为我的学术资格有问题而不能被认为是一个学生呢？如果他/她还敢说没有毕业后连续学习就不能被认为是真正的学生，那么你再问他/他：那么绝大多数MBA的申请人本科毕业后就是工作工作再工作，累积工作经验后申请MBA，这也是世界上绝大多数名牌大学商学院包括英国的大学商学院希望的学生，那么他们按照你的标准是真正的学生吗？他们并没有连续的学习啊？如果到了这里他们仍然狡辩，那是老天不帮你，破烂英国你不去也罢！尤其是VO在否认最显而易见的事实和提出无理的观点，比如阿三的那种观点的时候，一定抛开翻译，用你自己准备好的英文“强烈地、铿锵地”表达你的观点。到了这时候，你已经被逼到墙角，你必须拼了。

希望可以看到更多的在这里征同机前往London的喜悦，虽然那里一样的炎热，我不愿看到悲情的不幸！我想我不会再回答这里来回答任何的问题，因为我明白我能做的只是那么多而已。你们也明白签证其实掌握在你自己的手中。

All the best

Dear Visa Officer

BONA FIDES OF STUDY
Since my English is not good as you may have been aware, I think a letter in better English may be conducive to clear explanation of my genuine intention to study in the UK. I’m absolutely of no mind to apply for entry clearance purposely on this date as others may think you have a good mood which makes it easier for their applications. Since my start date of language courses is closing in, I have to reapply as soon as possible.

I think the previous refusals are unfair and biased.

This is my THIRD time to lodge an application for entry clearance as a student. My previous two applications were refused because my explanation to my withdrawal from study in Japan and continuing to the UK cannot be accepted by your office.

According to the Refusal Letter dated 20th December 2002, I’d like to further explain the following key points which were actually clearly replied but not received at my second interview with Mr. Martin. The points are as follows:

1. My English level
[1] The refusal letter says that ‘you have been unable to demonstrate the ability to communicate in English even at a basic level.’
I’m quite confused that how I was deemed as an English illiterate. There’s no test given during the interview and what’s the concept of ‘basic level’? I believe that there won’t be any law saying that anyone with basic English level cannot be grated entry clearance. Besides, my university studies in Shanghai and Tokyo are entirely in Japanese, which has indeed impeded the improvement of my English. But that should not mean language students cannot embark on a more focused postgraduate study afterwards.

[2]The refusal letter says that ‘you have not undertaken steps or courses to improve your English language ability in China’.
I’m again confused by this reason. I have provided a Certificate of Study in an IELTS Preparation course in Lang Ge English Language Centre which is physical evidence that I HAVE UNDERTAKEN STEPS & COURSES TO IMPROVE MY ENGLISH LANGUAGE ABILITY IN CHINA. Please check this certificate enclosed again in my application.

[3]The refusal letter also says that ‘You do not plan to undertake any preliminary language training before your course’.
Be really honest, I’m even more confused by this reason since the very FIRST course I’m planning to do is an ENGLISH LANGUAGE PREPARATION PROGRAMME. This ELPP lasts 7 months leading only to IELTS 4.5 which is one of the entry requirements for MQP. My study plan is as follows:
7 months English Language Preparation Programme

9 months Masters Qualifying Programme

1 year MSc in Marketing in a UK university upon successful completion of MQP

In a word, I would be full-fledged for an MQP only requiring IELTS 4.5 after I have taken a preliminary ELPP course in Bellerbys College.

[4] About my ABILITY TO STUDY in another country
I’d like to reiterate that I’ve obtained a Certificate of Accountant in Japan before I left Tokyo, which is quite an attainment for a student especially a student whose month tongue is not Japanese. I HAVE NOT taken any extra prep courses in order to obtain this certificate. That’s why I have 100% confidence in my ability to obtain the required language skill in your country. I’m quite confident that I can achieve the required result in set period after I soak myself in a country where Shakespeare’s language is spoken.

2. The reason that I withdrew my study in Japan even though my visa to Japan is still valid and change to UK
[1]What I want to be?
As stated in my Study Plan that I want to be a Marketing Director of luxuries with international cachet but not in the UK or Japan, just in Shanghai. To realize my dream, I need:
 A foreign-educated degree, preferably a master’s degree
 Fluency in English

[2]What have I done?
With this dream in mind, I went to Japan first then after one’s year’s study in Japan I have a total change of heart. I’ve decided to withdraw immediately since I found, although I hate to acknowledge, that Japanese system has the following vital weak points:
 very dogmatic. I memorised principles and rules then I got passed
 takes much longer to gain a Master’s degree. Please find the following Route chart:
My Route for a foreign-educated Degree(省略)

From this chart you can see very clearly that in less amount of time in the UK I can gain an internationally recognized Master’s degree probably in a distinguished UK university whereas in a bit longer time I can only gain a bachelor’s degree just from a small-time university in Japan.
 I cannot learn English in Japan with their ineffective teaching

[3]Then what’s my next step?
If foreign education is a heavy investment in one’s life, then I’d rather choose a place where my investment is more cost-effective and worthwhile. I have found I made a wrong decision, and I want to put myself back on the right track ASAP. I would not allow myself to keep using my mother’s saving in such an insensible way. I have fully realized the beauty of British educational system in which CONVERSION master’s degree could be gained by any qualified applicant from any discipline through just one year’s intensive study! I’m confident that after the hard work in MQP I will be fully prepared for a conversion MSc in Marketing from my targeted universities such as University of Ea
