415協(xié)議的背景知識

    １９９９年，美國多家大學聯(lián)合制定并實施針對外國學生的“４?１５協(xié)議”，主要內(nèi)容為：申請赴美留學、已拿到多個學校錄取通知書的學生，必須在４月１５日前決定一所你要去的學校，否則，所有錄取通知書將都被視作無效。這個“協(xié)議”的用意，是約束某個申請人同時接受多個學校的錄取，但直到開學前才通知其中一些學?！盁o法按時就讀”的不當行為。申請人的這一做法將大大影響學校正常的招生、教學秩序，也讓美國每年白白放空大筆獎學金。當然，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校中任意選擇一家就讀，但明確答復所選大學的時間應不晚于４月１５日，還應盡可能早地把自己的決定通知別的學校。

    留足時間，將已經(jīng)收到錄取通知書但決定拒絕的學校的各類錄取資料，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日之前到達被拒學校，但事先必須用電子郵件通知學校）。

    如果在接受一所學校的錄取之后反悔，受損害的學校有權請求所有簽署“４?１５協(xié)議”的其他大學拒收該生。
