Foreign students studying in advanced industrialised countries very often stay on there. This situation in which a country's most intelligent people go to another country in order to get a better education, to improve their living or working conditions is called "brain drain".
Clerk: Why do you want to enter our college? Have you studied our
course catalogue?
Foreign Student: Yes, 1 have. You are a four-year college, and you are state supported. The tuition fee is reasonable. Everything suits me. Then you have a large foreign community. CL: Oh, yes, we have foreign students. Have you passed the Test of
English as a Foreign Language or TOEFL as it is often called? F.St.: Yes, my TOEFL score meets your requirements. Here is my "Score Record". Do I have to take any entrance examinations? CI-: Yes, I'm afraid, you do. One of our admission requirements for
foreign students is to sit SAT, Scholastic Aptitude Test1. F.St.: When is it held?
CL: You should contact our foreign sttident adviser about it. F.St.: Do I qualify for financial assistance? Cl.: Oh, we must study all your papers very carefully first, before we
say. By the way, what would you like to major in? F.St.: If I enter your college, I would like to major in public finance. Cl,: Generally we offer majors in economics, though there is a course on State and Local Public Services and Finance. But you should read the description of the course, information about departments in our college and curriculum opportunities very carefully to be sure that it is what you need. F.St.: Sure, I'll do it.
CL: Then, we are very strict about students' attendance, taking exams, credit tests, writing course papers on time. F.St.: If I get accepted it won't be a problem, I think. What facilities
for sport, recreation and entertainment do you offer?2 CL: Not every university can boast of similar facilities. We have a gym, a swimming pool, different students' clubs. If you pass your SAT and if you become our student, you won't regret it. F.St.: It's nice to bear it. After 1 get in touch with the adviser and study
the curriculum Г11 contact you again, if you don't mind. CL: Welcome.
F.St.: Before I leave, may 1 look around the college? Cl.: Certaiiuy, I'll show you round.
