关于LSBF ACCA + Fully Funded MBA 是个馅饼还是陷阱?
一直一来都在关注ACCA + Fully Funded MBA这个课程,只要读ACCA的学费(6200磅 14门),并且全部通过就可以获得fully funded MBA,听上去就像天生掉下的馅饼,仔细阅读 term & condition里面的条款,你会发现很多各种各样的陷阱。
比如:
陷阱一:Students must pass 11 of ACCA (ie: F1-P2) papers prior to commencing the MBA/MSc course. 也就是说只要pass F1-P2 就可以开始学习 MBA/MSC课程了
但是T&C的15.4 Students who have successfully completed the ACCA or CIMA may be eligible to obtain a Scholarship for the MBA in Financial Management or MSc in Finance and Accounting Programme. For the avoidance of doubt students will not be admitted on to the MBA/MSc course where they have failed to pass the above papers. 这条就很confuse你要奖学金就必须读完ACCA但是他又说你完成F1-P2可以开始学习MBA了。这两个很矛盾,根据15.4你必须完成14门才能获得奖学金,但是你完成F1-P2就可以开始MBA的课程了…什么逻辑?而且根据这个MBA课程设置一共10门课,其中F9+P3+P4+P5通过以后可以免掉其中的四门课,另外6门课是必须考试通过完成论文才可以最终毕业。是否P3-P5和免考的这几门是同时进行的?
陷阱二:16.1 Sponsorship of the MBA in Financial Management or MSc in Finance and Accounting (as applicable) Programme fees covers the tuition fees only, but does not include incidentals including textbooks and exam entry/assessment fees (£118 per module), dissertation mentoring fees (£250), dissertation submission fees (£150) and final academic board presentation fees (£150), and fees for exemptions and deferrals. Students are responsible for payment of such fees, which are mandatory for enrolment and progression on the Programme.
学费是免了 但是还有考试费,课本费,毕业论文费等一共 118X6+250+150+150=1258磅如果免考的也要算上考试费就是118X10+550=1730磅 还不包括书本等其他可能有但是没有列明的隐性费用。
陷阱三:16.4 Students who gained preliminary admission to the Programme under the Scholarship scheme and subsequently fail to pass the requisite ACCA or CIMA Modules, will be required to pay the full tuition fees due for the MBA or MSc Programme forthwith.
假如你在读P3-P5的时候挂了,你MBA的奖学金就没了,最后几门的通过率是最低的除非你是扎扎实实能把这3门给过了否则。。。
陷阱四:16.10 Students who fail to pass an MBA in Financial Management or MSc in Finance and Accounting (as applicable) Module under the Scholarship Scheme will need to re-sit this module in line with Clause 16.7, and the LSBF General Terms and Conditions. For the avoidance of doubt, students will be required to pay the full fees to re-sit the applicable module. 这个full fees很有可能是一个module的学费,这个费用也很有可能上千磅,所以最好不要出现挂科。
陷阱五:16.16 Where students propose to complete the Oracle Capital Scholarship Course on Campus, they must pay additional Campus Fees. 这个就更诡异了,居然还要建校费,而且也没说到底要多少钱!
说的很啰嗦,希望有在读或者已经毕业的前辈能提点一下,大家也讨论讨论~
还有个疑问:就是这个MBA授予的是威尔士大学的学位证书,这个证书可以在大使馆和教育部认证吗?
