除了以上所提供的资料,在选择大学先修课程的当儿还需要注意一些事项。 虽然大部分的先修课程都提供了很多科目的选项,但请确保你所选择的学院或大学有提供你想要的科目,并且可以让你自行选择科目的组合。
另外一个所需要注意的事项是先修课程的入学日期和课程期限是否配合你想要报读的学士学位课程的入学日期。 如果你不希望在修完大学先修课程后与学士学位课程入学时间之间相隔太长的时间,或者相反过来,那么你就必须在此事项中多加注意。
在修完大学先修课程后你想要报读什么学士课程呢? 花点时间了解你所感兴趣的学士课程,并而确保你所选择的大学先修课程被你想要的学士课程及大学或学院所接受或认可。如果你报名一些私立大学或学院所提供的预科课程,你应该确保你将在同一间私立大学或学院就读其学士学位课程,因为有些私立大学或学院并不接受或认可来自其他教育机构的大学预科文凭。
