The experiences of international students in UK further education colleges have been capturedin a new report.
英国发布了一份新的报告，记录了国际学生在英国继续教育学院的经验与体验。
The New Horizons report, published in November, focuses on a number of issues ranging from accommodation and leisure to finance and immigration. The document is based on a survey carried out by UKCOSA ― UK Council for International Education ― in association with organisations like the British Council.
英国一份报告《新视野》（New Horizons）于11月出炉，集中介绍了住宿、休闲、 资金、移民等诸多方面的问题。该报告是基于一份调查得出的，该调查由UKCOSA（英国国际教育协会）英国负责国际教育的协会联合诸如英国文化协会这样的机构进行的。
High level of satisfaction
满意度很高
The survey shows that there is a high level of satisfaction among overseas students in the UK ― 88 per cent are satisfied or very satisfied with their course and 80 per cent are satisfied or very satisfied with the supportthey receive from their college.
调查结果表明，前来英国留学的海外留学生的满意度很高：88％的人对他们的课程表示满意或非常满意，80％的人对从学校获得的支持或帮助表示满意或非常满意。
Accommodation and immigration
住宿和移民
Accommodation, which is always an issue for most international students, shows that students who stay with hostfamilies are the most satisfied. Eighty-one per cent in homestay accommodation said that their host family are both friendly and welcoming.
对于绝大多数的国际留学生来说，住宿通常是一个大问题。而调查表明，学生们对于“寄宿家庭”的住宿方式是最满意的。81％接受“寄宿家庭”住宿方式的学生都表示他们所居住的家庭既友好又热情。
Visa and immigration issues also had interesting results. Two-thirds of students who needed a visa prior to coming to the UK, found applying for one relatively easy and straightforward, although 18 per cent found it to be a lengthy and difficult process.
就签证和移民问题进行的调查得出的结果也很有趣。有2/3的学生在前往英国之前就需要办理好签证，他们觉得办理留学申请相对容易和简单，但是也有18％的人认为这是一个漫长而又繁琐的过程。
Financial matters and part-time work
资金问题和兼职
Even though many students from the survey were self-funding (almost 70 per cent having their fees paid by their family), there was a high number that reported financialdifficulty at some point during their stay (a third of the survey sample).
在参加调查的学生中，有许多（几乎70％的学生是家里为其支付学费）是自己支付留学费用的。报告还显示。在求学期间，有很大一部分人（占被调查者人数的1/3）在某种程度上遇到了资金方面的困难。
