[心得] 用英文名字考TOEFL的解決辦法
這一篇因為牽涉到application階段的問題,所以發在留學版~
狀況是這樣的: 當初創TOEFL帳號時,沒有注意到要填護照上的名字,
所以就順手填了常用的英文名字。直到報名考試後發現不對勁,
寫信給ET$,他們卻只冷冷地回覆:
Unfortunately, your request to change your name has been denied. You will
need to create a new TOEFL IBT online profile using the correct form of your
name. We regret that we are unable to assist you at this time.
無奈之際,又很不甘心報名費就這樣放水流。於是便做了以下幾件事:
1. 考TOEFL會先驗證件,需要去領事事務局在護照上加註別名(不用錢且現場辦完)
2. 成績照樣發給各個學校
3. 確認校方有沒有找到成績,有些學校是看registration number,有的是看名字找。
如果學校系統找不到你的成績,就需要寫信給Admission Committee,內容大致如下:
To Whom It May Concern,
My name is ***, and I am applying *** program for 2015 fall. When I reviewed
the page of My Status, I've found out that my submitted TOEFL score wasn't
linked to my application, and I believe the problem came from the name discrepancy.
I used my second name(As known as) when creating my TOEFL account. I tried to
change it before taking TOEFL, but ETS rejected my admission. Even though I
reported my score to (學校名字) on 12/12, the system maynot link my score to
my application due to the name discrepancy. Here is some information about my
TOEFL score:
(帳號資訊,考試日期,成績...等等資料)
My name: *****
My second name (As Known As) : *****
If anything required to solved this problem, please let me know. I sincerely
appreciate your consideration.
去信後1~2天就會收到校方回信,告訴你是否找到成績。
我前前後後寫信給7個學校,最後都有順利找到成績(顯示official score received)
總結來說,用英文名字考TOEFL不代表報名費丟水裡,
只是需要不斷地確認,適時地寫信...
很麻煩但至少可以省下一筆錢,提供給各位做參考。
一切的開端都是創帳號時太隨興,請務必注意,要填護照姓名! =A=)/
