]]>The post University of Oxford – collegiate university in Oxford, courses and review first appeared on Education After 12th.
]]>Today we are here with a review for the world’s second-oldest university, the house of one of the world’s oldest and most prestigious scholarships, institute who ha has educated many notable alumni from it’s 38 constituent colleges and largest academic library system.
This epic ambiance is none other than The University of Oxford, which is informally also known as Oxford University or Oxford. This University resides at the central southern city, Oxford of England. If we go back in history to study about the existences of The University of Oxford then there is no such known date of foundation but there exist some evidence that according to them this university is educating since 1096 and thus it has become the second oldest English speaking university at the global level. In 1167 when Henry Curtmantle or Henry II banned his English students from pursuing their studies further from the University of Paris then that decision proves to be a rising moment for Oxford and hence from 1167, it started growing rapidly. A few years later townsfolk of Oxford city and students of the University of Oxford had a dispute and as a result, University of Cambridge established when some academics headed towards in the northeast to the Cambridge city. Today these the two ancient universities are frequently referred to as “Oxbridge”.
Guys now let us study about Oxford. First of all, I would like to tell you that it is a collegiate university. A collegiate university is a university which is composed of different colleges or departments. UO is consist of a central University and some thirty-eight colleges. It provides a wide range of resources for both teachings and learning in the form of administrative services, laboratories, libraries, museums, research centers, student services such as careers and counseling and various departments which often work together on interdisciplinary research projects and teaching joint courses. All the academic and administrative departments, libraries museums and research centers are possessed by the central University while the colleges are related to it in an amalgamating manner.
In addition to this, it provides accommodation, meals, common rooms, libraries, sports and social facilities, and pastoral care to their students. And even the college is itself an accommodation as faculties who are doing teaching there can teach their part and use the library to study for the rest of their time. This university provides more than thousands of courses which are listed below:

Well till now the University of Oxford have made you excited to study there and I’m sure you are curious to know about the admission process of Oxford. So let me tell you, my folks, that there are four modules in which you can take admission and study at the University of Oxford. These modules are:
Now the question arises how you will get admission in any of the above modules as we all know taking admission in Oxford is a hard nut to crack. So if you want to apply for any of the above modules then you have to go through a selection procedure which is consists of five different stages or levels or hurdles.
I’m going to give you a brief about all these stages so that you can prepare yourself for your dream education. So let us first have an introduction with these stages and then we will study a brief about them. The stages you have to go through are listed below:
Tests
So, the first stage tests and for any kind of enrolment or admission we have to go through a particular examination but in Oxford, you just don’t have to give a written exam but also you have to survive various other phases as well.
The first thing you have to do is to register yourself for the test of the course or stream you want to pursue and make sure that you have to register separately for every course you want to apply for and that too on or before a set date of October month, decided by the authorizes.
To pursue any course you need to give a test because without giving a test your application will not be entertained.
Once you clear this level then second will be to apply for UCAS application to study in the UK but you have to wind up all the UCAS work a year ago before applying to Oxford.
UCAS stands for Universities and Colleges Admissions Service, which is a UK-based Non-profit organization and works mainly for the operation of application process for British universities such as University of Aberdeen, Anglia Ruskin University, University of Birmingham, Imperial College London, University of London, University of Manchester University of Oxford, University of Cambridge and much more.
The applications forms to apply for UCAS launches every year in September till 1800 hrs. according to UKST of 15th October, therefore you have to be very active during this tenure so that you can apply quickly apply for it and I have told you earlier that they won’t entertain late applications.
UCAS application
If you want to study at Oxford from the core of your heart then, you need to apply a year before the start date of your course by completing the online application form at the official website of UCAS. These application forms launch in early September and the deadline is 6 pm UK time on 15 October every year. Late applications cannot be accepted.
Written work
Now the next hurdle comes is written work. If your selected course falls in such category then you have to send some of your written work along with your application and that too marked by a teacher.
Well don’t get panic for the written stuff because once you send your application form then the concern college or department will be touch with you to update you on your written work i.e. how to send it either by post or electronically or what to send etc. and that happens iff your selected course demands some written work. Your written work includes your language, writing and reasoning skills required for the desired course you have chosen in either written or typed and marked by a teacher in addition to this it should be neat and clean without any kind of correction and editing.
It is advisable to keep a copy of every sheet including work and application form you share with the desired department so that in the case of any loss you can recover it.
Interviews
Now here comes the fourth and one of the most haunted stage and that is interviews. Every person is scared of giving interviews and even some are so scared that spelling out the word is hard enough to scare them but guys there is nothing to be scared from interviews.
This is just conversation round between the interviewer and you regarding your skills and course are chosen by you only. You can consider this as just you are enquiring about a new gadget from a retailer or seller.
Decisions
Now here comes the last stage of selection and this process is termed as decisions or selection process where the selection committee will examine and analyze your overall performance i.e. from test to your interview. The candidates who have been selected will be informed in the month of January that their application has been selected or not. The campus also informs you about some conditional and unconditional offers which means that you have not yet completed all your current qualifications and hence you couldn’t satisfy the necessary condition and once you complete then your place will be confirmed or if you completed all your qualifications and you couldn’t meet with necessary academics conditions then your place will be confirmed after the completion of those conditions.
So now you have got admission in the University of Oxford, now the point is how much you have to pay to study overseas. Well if talk about Oxford then let me tell you that University understands every student’s pocket and in this direction University is so committed that it always ensures that the fees shouldn’t act as a hurdle for the success of students who are aspiring to study overseas and especially in Oxford.
Oxford is so loyal towards its commitment that it provides non-repayable scholarships to support and enhance student and in addition to this, the government also supports the students by providing loans to them and that too without any kind of upfront.
The fees payment is divided into two sections
The tuition fees are the fees that you will be charged for your course and study material. This fees can be determined easily with the support of either government or by the university itself. They have made few categories under which they put you on the scholarship such as EU which means rest of European Union apart from UK i.e. people living in Europe continent but not in the United Kingdom like France, Italy, other is Home in which you will be placed if you are a native of UK then Overseas in which students staying outside Europe continent such as USA, India, Australia will be considered.
The second category is living costs and you will pay this for your own lifestyle. Such as your accommodations or meal and friends this could be ranging from £1,002 to £1,471 per month and for this, you will not going to have any support from the government unless you falls in Home category.
So if you think that above mention costs are heavy for your pockets then you don’t need to worry my friend the government of United Kingdom and administrators of the University of Oxford are standing by your side all the time if you’re talented enough and having money as a barrier in your path.
As I said earlier they are providing you full funding and that too without any kind of upfront. If you are a student from either United Kingdom or from any part of Europe and applying for the undergraduate student program then you can claim all tuition fees against a loan taken from the government.
If we talk about the support provided by the University then this University provides a special funding named Oxford Bursaries for the students of the United Kingdom or Europe by proving an annual non-repayable fund. Please make sure that the amount of bursary providing to you will depend on your household income.
Till now if you are not sure for any topic or section or couldn’t decide which course should be chosen then you can contact the executives and can clear all your doubts.

]]>The post Florence Design Academy – Design school in Italy, Degree courses, admission, review first appeared on Education After 12th.
]]>Have you ever seen a pastry box and dreamed of designing such a package or such kind of artwork or are you thirsty for finding some unique stuff for your interior and if so then my dear you are at the right destination?
Today in my article I’m gonna share a runway with you where you can land the jet of dreams and this runway is Florence design academy and their student’s gallery is the evidence of their quality. Well, we have tried to bring a bit of that gallery from their wall. This academy is a perfect place where you can fulfil all your dreams. It’s one of the best platforms for those who are always in search of learning new technologies for artistic techniques so that they can use their designing skills to communicate better or I should say best.
Now let us start discussing the academy. This epic academy is situated in Palazzo Testa of Florence City, which resides in the region of Italy’s capital Tuscany. This city is so beautiful with its fine creative architecture such as Ponte Vecchio, Florence Duomo, Palazzo Vecchio etc which makes it a masterpiece of Renaissance art and architecture and guys even Palazzo Testa is one the historical building from XVII century. Therefore studying at Florence design academy will be next to a boon for those who want to study abroad as they will not only learn designing skills but they going to learn and witness an Italian culture and architecture such as masterpieces n created by historical Renaissance artists and Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo and Brunelleschi are few of them. Since all courses are taught here in the English language but if you want to learn the Italian language and architectural terminology deeper so I advise you to enrol yourself for Italian languages and make sure they have only limited seats for that.
The Florence design academy was started in the year 1991 by an American artist named Daniel Graves, who just didn’t start it but directed it as well to offer training to those who aspire to become professional draftsman, painters, and sculptors. Due to its international award winner teachers and designers full of amazing talent, this school has become one of the best and futuristic design schools in Europe. Today they have two other branches as well. One is in Molndäl, Sweden under the direction of Andreas Birath while the other one is in Jersey City, New Jersey under the direction of Jordan Sokol. They are having a different curriculum in the field of art and design and animation as well such as interior designing, 3D graphic and graphic designing, industrial designing, and 3D animation. For the betterment of student every year 35 new faculties got a recruit. This school is full of benefits and services to its student’s such as full-time internet facilities and on-demand mobile facility to the student, high-quality equipment and powerful and modern tools. The combo of their technology and methods are the base of a professional career for a career-oriented student so that he or she can grow deeper and deeper in their career. Their unique and exciting specialist design education system is totally based on futuristic methods. Though these methods are unique and quite the best but they challenge the older and conventional concepts solutions and processes and even being so challengeable futuristic methods are good and they meet the needs of both present and future generations of student belonging to any discipline.
In the last twenty-seven years, students from more than 40 countries have been graduated from this epic and historical Florence design academy and because of this ratio and very good and unique techniques Florence design academy has been accredited by The National Association of Schools of Art and Design in 2013.
As we have discussed earlier that studying at Florence design academy, Italy will next to a boon for everyone dreaming of getting a high standard and sophisticated designing education.
FDA provides two kinds of education options:
The academic courses are ranging from one year program to three-year program in the sectors of:
Now let us begin with the graphic design course. In this program, they will provide all the necessary techniques and knowledge required for a person to become a professional such as traditional art techniques like painting, still life shades or modern digital art techniques like motion graphic videos. During the execution of this course, students will learn and work using high-tech equipment such as Professional Workstations with a high resolution 19“ Monitor, digital graphics tablet with a digital pen as they are working as a professional in a design-studios so that he or she may become a competitive designer. If we talk about technology then their faculties will goanna teach them on much high-end technical software such as Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Illustrator, Adobe Flash, 3D Studio MAX, Autocad, Rhinoceros 3D and many more which are used by some high-class brand firms from various sectors like BMW, Nokia, Porsche, Boing, Daimler Chrysler, Fiat, Toyota and Yamaha.
Now lets us move to the second program i.e. interior design. This course or program plays a very important role not just in the life of a designer but also in our daily life as well. It is so because when we talk about an interior designing profession then that means the professional will goanna groom the personality of an interior or a room. The most important phase and area of work in this sector are playing with light, colour, shadows, materials, shapes, furniture design and architectural details as only working in these sectors we can groom the personality of our room. During the execution, of course, the high-tech hardware for students includes a professional workstation with a high resolution 24“Monitor, digital graphics tablet with a digital pen so that student can feel like working in a professional studio and their technologies or software’s they will learn includes Autocad, 3D Studio MAX, Photoshop etc.
Now the last sector is Industrial and Product Design. Let us study this sector now. This is quite similar to the interior one as here you also have to make some object or products but not only limited to interior stuff but much other stuff such as automobile or gadget or any kind of modern equipment. You will learn here the functionality and appearance of any object and also the factors that affect creating an object such as its shape, colour, material and much more and the addition of this your curriculum will include fusion of these factors as well. If you talk about hardware and software then you will be working on similar things such as a professional workstation with a high resolution 24“Monitor, digital graphics tablet with a digital pen and even the software’s includes Autocad, Photoshop, 3D Studio MAX, Rhinoceros 3D etc. which are quite similar to interior design course.
Well, this was all about the academic courses now we are heading towards the master courses. The master degree courses are only of one year only in similar sectors and they are listed below:
Now you will be wondering that how both the courses are different from each other. Actually, the mainframe of mind behind the creation of a Master degree course is that both graduate students and professionals can improve their skills and level knowledge at the very high level of their profession.
If we talk about the faculty who gonna teach you is a dynamic team with great ideas with a vast experience and knowledge in their respective disciplines.
Well, I’m sure till now you will be excited and curious to take admission to FDA and eagerly looking for the procedure. The procedure is very simple and easy. The procedure for admission is listed below:
If you want to apply for a visa then once you clear your enrollment procedure you will receive an email consisting of your certificate of enrollment and all the necessary documents required for your VISA which you have to carry to an Italian consulate or an embassy where they interact with your school and precede your VISA further.
