415協(xié)議的背景知識(shí)
1999年,美國多家大學(xué)聯(lián)合制定并實(shí)施針對外國學(xué)生的“4?15協(xié)議”,主要內(nèi)容為:申請赴美留學(xué)、已拿到多個(gè)學(xué)校錄取通知書的學(xué)生,必須在4月15日前決定一所你要去的學(xué)校,否則,所有錄取通知書將都被視作無效。這個(gè)“協(xié)議”的用意,是約束某個(gè)申請人同時(shí)接受多個(gè)學(xué)校的錄取,但直到開學(xué)前才通知其中一些學(xué)?!盁o法按時(shí)就讀”的不當(dāng)行為。申請人的這一做法將大大影響學(xué)校正常的招生、教學(xué)秩序,也讓美國每年白白放空大筆獎(jiǎng)學(xué)金。當(dāng)然,他們還損害了本國申請者的形象,為后來的申請者帶來麻煩。
“4?15協(xié)議”主要內(nèi)容在每年的4月15日之前,申請者可以在已錄取他的學(xué)校中任意選擇一家就讀,但明確答復(fù)所選大學(xué)的時(shí)間應(yīng)不晚于4月15日,還應(yīng)盡可能早地把自己的決定通知?jiǎng)e的學(xué)校。
留足時(shí)間,將已經(jīng)收到錄取通知書但決定拒絕的學(xué)校的各類錄取資料,包括I-20表格,在4月15日之前寄回(材料不一定要在4月15日之前到達(dá)被拒學(xué)校,但事先必須用電子郵件通知學(xué)校)。
如果在接受一所學(xué)校的錄取之后反悔,受損害的學(xué)校有權(quán)請求所有簽署“4?15協(xié)議”的其他大學(xué)拒收該生。
