为什么你会收到拒信?收到拒信之后该怎么办?,英国留学中英网微信公众号文章

申请学校的时候多多少少会遇到那些傲娇的学校，莫名的收到个拒信什么的，今天就一起看看学校到底用什么原因拒绝你，收到拒信之后能不能argue？又怎么argue？

英国学校申请被拒原因

1.所申学校申请人数激增，学生综合竞争力不够

“Please be aware that, in common with most of our courses, the XXXXX course has seen an unprecedented increase in the number of applications received this year.

It is because of this factor, that we have not been able to make offers to all applicants. It was deemed that your academic qualifications, together with other aspects of your application were not ranked highly enough in comparison with those of other applicants with similar achievements. ”

Argue 成功指数★：这是最常见的一种被拒说法，看起来很官方很客气，也有说服力，其实就是学校没有看上你，也懒得给理由了。如果你真的很想去这个大学的话，那可以询问学校是否有可能转到其他的相关专业。

2.学校排名没有达到所申请学校要求

“You failed to fulfill the entry requirements because your awarding institution is not ranked highly enough to satisfy our entry criteria.”

Argue 成功指数★★：这样的回复一般是学校都有明确的排名要求的，Argue的可能性比较渺茫，不过呢！有一种可能性：其实你的大学排名还不错，但是英国看错你的学校名称了;比如你的学校曾经更换过名字，英国大学在排名上找不到你的大学的名字。

这种乌龙还是有可能的哈!你只需要写一封言辞恳切的信说明一下，让大学重新审核一下即可。

3.学生均分没有达到所申请专业要求

“We regret to inform you that we are unable to offer them a place, as it was felt that the application did not meet the entry requirements for the course for the following reason(s):

Your academic qualification requires to have all modules with a score of above 80 %. You have not achieved the necessary standard.”

Argue 成功指数★★：这种情况也不妙。如果你属于综合分数没有达到要求，但是如果专业核心课的分数达到或者高于学校要求的话，可以以此为重点，向学校发邮件说明情况。

还有就是补交材料，有一次学生因为平均分被学校拒绝了，学生可以提供了一份完美无瑕的实习工作证明，结果OFFER真的下来了。

4.学生核心课程均分没有达到所申请专业要求

“Unfortunately we are unable to make you an offer as you do not meet our academic requirements. You are currently achieving 80.05% overall which is the equivalent to a low 2:2 & we require a high 2:2 which is 83%.

Your average grades from required & relevant modules are 77.33% & 74.07% which is the equivalent to a 3rd. The selector was concerned that you would not be suitable for the course due to the grades you have achieved.”

Argue 成功指数★：省省吧!Argue不易啊!不过呢，凡是总有例外，除非你可以举证，你这样的分数已经是年级排名TOP3的了。

5.所申专业今年不开放申请

“From September 20XX we will no longer be running the XXXXXXX.”

“Unfortunately the XXXXXXXXXX is closed for both part time and full time applications. Your application has been given careful consideration and on this occasion we are unable to offer you a place on your chosen programme. We have also taken the time to review your application for other Masters programmes at AMBS and unfortunately we are unable to offer you a place.”

Argue 成功指数★★★：不开放申请，好像一点argue的余地都没有。其实，还是可以问学校是否有其他专业可以代替，因为英国大学的很多专业虽然名字差异很大，但是课程内容还是差不多的。

6.学生没有所申专业相关背景

“Unfortunately, your application for XXXXXX was unsuccessful because your degree was in an unrelated subject. ”

Argue 成功指数★★★：这种情况明显就是申请失误了嘛!如果专业有要求背景，你又没有学过相关的课程，那只能是选学校的时候就选错了啊!

但是呢!有种情况是，学校需要你学过一些课程，比如数学课什么的，成绩单上体现不出来，本大大就见过Argue后，学校让出具高中数学成绩单的情况。或者提交你接受过相关培训的证明，强调一下自己的相关工作经历以及相关专业证书等。

7.学生有学过所申专业部分课程，学校不接受申请与本科类似专业

“On this occasion I regret to inform you that we are unable to offer you a place. This is because this is a conversion course primarily aimed at students who have not studied XXXXXXXXXX at undergraduate level.”

Argue 成功指数★★★：这种拒信比较奇葩，因为你学过这样的课程，所以拒你。其实是因为你学过这样的课程，所以本专业对你来说太简单了，不适合你学。当然，如果你非要学习一些简单的课程专业，那么言辞恳切的说明你的意图，Argue试试啦。

8.学生提交的雅思成绩没有达到所申课程要求或没有提交申请费

“The reason for this decision is due to the English Language test score you submitted - this does not meet our requirements.”

“The application has been failed for applicant didn`t pay the application fee.”

Argue 成功指数★★★★★：说明没有交的理由，正常情况下，补缴申请费或者重新提交合适的雅思成绩即可哈。

9.学校认为个人陈述对所申专业目标不一致，原申请专业被拒

“Your application has been rejected. The admission panels notes; Stated interests and goals would be a better fit for the XXXXXX. ”

Argue 成功指数★★★★：这个要分析情况哈!如果是你的个人陈述的申请方向写的不明确或者不够好让大学误会了，写封信件说明一下情况，重新提交一份PS，成功率还是很高的哈!

但是，如果大学是对于你PS的质量不满意，比如BATH大学的口译专业，拒绝你是因为你的PS的写作水平，那么就没啥说的了!这么顶级的专业全国只招25个中国人，要求高也是正常的。

10.学校因为某种原因会将学生放在waiting list上

“Competition for entry to postgraduate degree programmes in the XXXX School has intensified in recent years, with more than XXXX applications being received for circa 1,400 places during the last Admissions Cycle (2016 entry to the University).

Accordingly, attainment of the published Minimum Academic Requirements, Minimum English Language Requirements and Non-Academic Requirements does not guarantee that an applicant will receive an offer.

Applicants will be made offers based on their relative performance compared to other applicants, and offers will be made to the top applicants based on the number of places available on their desired degree programme.

Given this, we are not in a position to make you an offer at this time. Your application is being held, pending review of other applications. You will be advised no later than 31 January 2016 whether or not we will be able to make you an offer.”

Argue 成功指数★★★★：这种情况下，看似只能等待消息，其实这是唯一一种给你机会argue的拒信。

建议大家如果真的非常想去这个学校，那就要想尽一切办法，从学术能力以及综合能力方面阐述自己为什么适合这个专业，以及自己都做了哪些预备工作来为将来学习这个专业打基础，言辞恳切且热情(切记不可和个人陈述重复)。

如何argue

大神argue攻略：

大神：“其实最开始没有想过要分享俺的argue经验的，因为确实花了不少时间，但是都没有什么成果出来。最近argue回一个Glasgow的offer，雅思作文也因为argue的原因拿了个7，想想也算是有所收获了，一些朋友也私下里问我要argue的原文，今天就干脆写一个关于argue的感想吧。

先汇报本人成绩：
Strathclyde：Argue成功，offer从 MSc in Marketing转为 MSc in International Marketing
Lancaster：Argue失败
Glasgow：Argue成功，MFin 从reject 转为 Conditional Offer
Birmingham： Argue失败。虽然某programme director 说我的argue clear and well-argued，但最终还是败于本科学校的排名上。

零：
这里说的Argue，是适用于你觉得自己大概能满足学校的要求，却莫名其妙被转，被拒，或者说有比你背景还差的人拿到offer你却没拿到的情况。 Argue并非万能，不是随便什么人都能Argue回一个LSE的offer的。在我看来，Argue和雅思的复议差不多，一定要觉得自己有希望再去。当然，和雅思复议比起来，Argue出结果快，还不要钱.

一．
很多前辈也说了，Argue无非就是why you why me的问题，我觉得既然是要Argue，大部分可能是自己没有满足学校的某项要求，所以我Argue信的重点都是放在自己身上。

不管是被转专业，还是被reject掉，我们argue的首要问题就是搞清楚为什么会没有拿到offer。一定要问小米why，一般的小米是会告诉你原因的，某些学校如Aston在拒信里面会很牛逼的说自己没有义务告诉你offer和reject的原因，但是其实仍然可以问出原因。我一般用的方法就是说和我背景差不多的一个朋友拿到了offer，为什么我没有拿到，希望学校能unbiased。虽然这种说法有点aggressive，但是一般小米还是会告诉你原因的，如果小米告诉你的是什么竞争激烈之类的套话，不要灰心，继续和他纠缠，直到他说出真实原因为止。

二．
知道原因过后，我们就可以有针对性的Argue了，Argue信一般是发给programme的director，一般学校的staff表里面都能找到，实在找不到可以发给小米，让他代为deliver。

如果学校拒你是因为你本科专业不相关，这时，你应该首先检讨一下，申请之前是否仔细看过学校的requirements，如果硬性要求本科背景，你又恰巧没有，就别Argue了，浪费大家的时间和表情，这相当于一应届生去Argue MBA的offer了。

如果你觉得本科背景相关，或是勉勉强强能靠上边，那就可以大胆的Argue。Strathclyde 的International Marketing 需要商科背景，我本科是新闻，由于在财经院校，学过一些商科基础课程，所以我申的IM，结果被S大转到转专业课程学的Marketing里面，于是我写了一封argue信，专门针对自己的商科背景进行陈述，最后，成功拿到offer。同样，申请Glasgow的MFIN课程，很快被拒，问了小米原因，小米直接说我本科degree不相关，我将写给Strathclyde的Argue信稍加改动传给Glasgow，第二天，MFIN offer出现在邮箱里。

如果感觉希望不大，建议大家再写一份关于你对所申请学科的感悟或是该学科最新的进展，附在argue信后面，有加分效果，当然，写这个的目的是证明你对这个领域确实是知道的，不至于一窍不通，所以，漏洞百出的最好就不要写了。以下是我Glasgow Argue信的主要部分

Dear Nick

Thanks for your reply, But I wonder what aspect of your demand I don’t meet. Because I know there are some students who has little maths background receiving your offer, even who majoring in English. So I want you can see my personal statement, I explain my background in this.

I know it is a little late to apply a competitive programme of a prestigious university, But I do love university of Glasgow very much, when I decide to pursue further education in UK, your prestigious University is my dream School, your news disappointed me a lot, can you tell me my drawbacks for your MFIN courses, maybe I can give your new documents to meet your requirements.

Thanks very much

1. As you can see from my transcript, there are numerous courses related to business and economics. Especially, I have studied Macroeconomics, Calculus (I&II), Financial Markets, Principles of Management, The Socialist Economy in Contemporary China, Contemporary World Economics & Politics and Media Economics which are directly related to Finance and Economics. The average score of these 8 courses is 83%.And my university, Nanjing University of Finance and Economics specialized at Finance arena. There are lots of lecture and seminar about Finance and Economics in campus, and some of them are compulsory for all the students. So I often go to absorb the professional knowledge to enrich my understanding of finance and economics.

2. Beside the transcript, I took The Theory and Practice of International Trade, Media Capital Operation and Securities Investment this semester. Though my credits are enough for graduation, in order to meet your academic background demand, I took business courses while other students were putting their whole efforts into the dissertation. Though it is very tough, I still work hard because they are related to business. Fortunately, I got 83, 85 and 85 in these courses respectively. I can send the results of these 3 courses to you after winter vacation, and I can even accept that you make a condition on my offer about this.

3. I know there are only 14 courses on my transcript related to business, and after adding the 3 courses this semester, it is just 17. But there is an important thing which cannot be seen in my transcript, the number of my compulsory courses is only 40. The business-related course accounts for over 35%.I know there is a general rule, to determine an applicant whether has a business academic background, the selector will check whether the percentage of business-related courses are over 30%.So according to the rule, I have the business academic background.

如果学校说你的GPA过低，这时候就找你们院系开一个你是TOP XX的证明，一般学校还是乐于帮你做这个事情的。如果你们系人少，就用实际数字，比如第8名，如果你们系人多，名次不好看，就开 among TOP xx%。

如果学校卡你的本科学校，譬如Birmingham之类的，我觉得这个就有点棘手了，你得针对你本科学校的优势进行Argue。我和Birmingham Argue很久，找过小米，找过几个director，最后都是失败，束手无策。他们Marketing的小米告诉我，他们只收网大排名前50的学生，在我数次指出某些非211学生拿到Birmingham经济系offer后，小米告诉我说商学院要求会比较严格，而Marketing的四个 programme更为严格，说是要求前50，但是一般75左右的学校都会收，如果你背景非常优秀，可以放宽到前100，100后的学校就不要想了。这个说法实在让人有点disappointed，Anyway，我还是把我Birmingham的Argue信发出，给大家参考参考吧。

I am a Chinese applicant for your esteemed Msc in Marketing and Msc in Marketing Communication.

Unfortunately, neither of my application is successful. I know you prestigious university has a strict recruitment, but after serious consideration, I still consider myself eligible for your programe. With certain reasons given below, I ask you to give me an opportunity and re-consider my application.

1.I know, my university is ranked 157 on netbig according to 2008’s data. But I should tell you that, There are lots of universities in China, Not every university is comprehensive university, such as mine, Nanjing University of Economics and Finance.This kind of universities don’t have a wide range of programme, instead, they specialize at Business area, just like City University in UK. City University is ranking 50 according to TIMES data, but Cass Business School is one of the most outstanding biz schools in UK.

My university, Nanjing University of Finance and Economics is ranking 6th in “University of Finance and Economics” according to NETBIG’s data. this website is Chinese version. I seek the English version but failed. So I hope you can ask a Chinese Student in your prestigious University to check this website.

2. As you can see from my transcript, there are numerous courses related to business and economics. Especially, I have studied Marketing, Marketing Communication, Financial Marketing, Principles of Management, Outline of Advertising, Human resource Management and Media Economics which are directly related to marketing. The average score of these 7 courses is 83%.And *******, one of my referee, is my teacher of Marketing Communication. It is my outstanding performance at the class that impressed him at the beginning.

3. Beside the transcript, I took The Theory and Practice of International Trade, Media Capital Operation and Securities Investment this semester. Though my credits are enough for graduation, in order to meet your academic background demand, I took business courses while other students were putting their whole efforts into the dissertation. Though it is very tough, I still work hard because they are related to business. Fortunately, I got 83, 85 and 85 in these courses

respectively. I can send the results of these 3 courses to you after winter vacation, and I can even accept that you make a condition on my offer about this.

4. I know there are only 14 courses on my transcript related to business, and after adding the 3 courses this semester, it is just 17. But there is an important thing which cannot be seen in my transcript, the number of my compulsory courses is only 40. the business-related course accounts for over 35%.I know there is a general rule, to determine an applicant whether has a business academic background, the selector will check whether the percentage of business-related courses

are over 30%.So according to the rule, I have the business academic background. Moreover, my core modules, the Journalism, have something todo with the marketing communication, such as the theory of communication and the Internet communication. They can make advantageous impacts on my marketing communication studying.

5.In the business area, I like marketing best, so I often search for the information and fetch the cutting edge knowledge on this subject during my leisure time. Especially there is enough time I can decide how to spend in the school next semester. If you could give me the reading lists, I will try my best to gain better understanding about marketing in order to benefit my further study in your prestigious university.

Besides these reasons, I will talk about my own understanding of “marketing”

In my book, Marketing means Market plus “-ing”, that is to say, implicit relation between supply and demand was influenced by the changes of product, price, promotion and communication expressed by “present continuous of Market”.

SWOT (Strength, Weakness, Opportunity and Threaten) is a prevalent method used to analyze market environment. It not only analyzes strengths and weaknesses from internal environment, but also opportunities and threatens from external environment. The enterprises’ strengths and weaknesses include factors local resources such as finances, experts and so on, customer service, efficiency, infrastructure construction, staff and management. While external opportunities and threatens contain the factors of competitors behaviors, economic situation of social industry, loan or exchange rates, market growth and changes of law. Since 1980s, procedure control was paid more attention. In addition, classical 4P marketing theory had also been formed into 7P theory, which included product, price, promotion, place& distribution, people, process and physical evidence.

So in my eye, the core values of 7P theory pointed out that the participation of employees played a more important role in marketing. Employee is the main part of enterprise. Everything worked by employees is the branch of customers’ feedbacks on services, affecting the image of enterprise. Each employee should be allowed and asked to participate in business management and decision-** actively and forwardly. On the other hand, the enterprise would keep an eye on the entire process of services. To understand customers in the process through interactive communication, the enterprise enables customers to become the part of marketing process, which can promptly improve their services and meet customer expectations. The management on cooperation and division of each departments is also vital in marketing, because cooperation from departments and participation of employees is a necessity. Cooperation and division of departments are the fundamental guarantee for a successful marketing.

Consequently, I want to ask for reconsideration for me. Birmingham Business School is world-famous, especially at marketing field. The programme content of your esteemed Marketing-related courses are very outstanding and competitive, thus I love this programme very much and want to study in this programme eagerly.

Thanks for your consistent support and help. I am looking forward to your early reply.

应该先搞清楚自己为什么unsuccessful，只有知道了原因，自己才能有个argue的头绪，别人也会给你相应的建议。

除此之外还有一些签证被拒的原因，大家一定要小心再小心：

1、家庭资金的历史记录不够：作为担保金提供的存单／存折的存入时间太短,没有之前存款的证明（比如存入这笔钱之前你的资金存在什么地方不能提供有效的银行证明－－－
原来存单的复印件,取出后的利息清单；
其他活期存折转出的证明；
股市取钱的对帐单；或者其他金融机构的集资入股单据,取出的凭证）；

2、留学会给你的家庭带来沉重的经济负担：
这主要反映在父母的年收入和所提供的存款之间没有一个合理的关系,比如你提供了超过30万的家庭存款,但是如果父母的年收入总和不能达到仅仅是5、6万以上,签证官认为父母根本没有能力提供这么多的存款,肯定有一部分钱是借来的；或者认为你把钱全部都带去英国,家里以后的生活一定会大受影响；

3、在英国打工：虽然英国允许学生在英国每周可以合法打工20小时,但是签证官希望你到达英国之前已经准备好全部的费用,不需要通过打工来解决学费和生活的费用。所以签证官问你是否会勤工俭学,一定不能说会；

4、有移民倾向：通过变卖家庭的固定资产比如房产来解决留学资金不足的问题,或者你在签证过程中说了你完成你在英国的学习计划后,会滞留在英国工作；

5、使领馆电话调查你的材料的过程中发现与你提供的书面材料内容不符,认为你提供了假材料。收入证明中提供的电话一定要在电信局114可以查询得到；

6、签证面谈过程中口头叙述的答案与书面的证明写的不一样
很多人说我的材料不是写得很清楚了吗,干吗还要问我? 签证官认为中介在这个过程中参与进来并没有什么非议,但是如果因此你就不全面了解家里的材料和在英国学习的情况, 签证官就会怀疑你的学习动机和你材料的真实性。
