My listening processed



A student at a university campus trying to find details on a new course.


Excuse me……..May I…..ask..
            Yes, please tell me. How can I help you?
Well, I would like to know a couple of things about admissions.
Are you the right parson to talk to?
            Yes, yes. My name’s Clement Lee. And I am the officer, Admissions.
All right, my guess was right. Actually I had tough time finding this office.
            Oh, really I am sorry. This is a new place. Actually we were in the 2nd floor.
            We have been here for a week, and many people find it difficult to get here.
            Let’s come to the point.
Yes, yes, actually I would like to do a course on environmental engineering.
How attractive is this course in your opinion.
            Well, frankly speaking we get a lot of enquiries on this. And as per our records, all    the previous students have been placed and are doing well. And currently, we have          a batch of 20 preparing to pass out.

What is the duration of the program?
            It is one year, or two semesters. We have both the systems, that is; students are         free to choose annual exam or semester exams.
Really, that is great. Not many institutions allow this.
            That is right, we appreciate it because we take our students’ interest first.
By the way, what are the entry level requirements?

            As a matter of fact, any graduate is eligible, but he or she has to have 60% marks       for the qualifying exam. And those who have got 80 or above will get 20%        reduction in the course fee.
Really, that is fantastic. And unique as well.
Oh I forgot. Please brief me about the fee and payment options.
            Well, we have two fee patterns: one for, as you know, semester and the other for        annual. Semester fee is a little higher though.
            If you want the details, it goes like this.
            A semester candidate has to pay 500 pounds for every semester. But the annual         option wants one to pay 800 pounds.
The mode of payment, by the way.
            Well, you can pay it in any form. By cash or card.
Should we pay the whole amount down?
            Oh, no. Actually, at the time of admission, one should pay 50%, this is for the            annual option. But, for the semester the initial payment is 75%.
And the remaining?
            After three months from the date of admission. This is applicable for both the            options.
Let me remember, um….yes. Is there any boarding facility in the campus?
            Sorry, we are currently working on it, and we expect to open it by the end of this        year.
Well, thank you, thank you very much.
Oh, sorry, the last date for submitting the application is…..by when?
            22nd of July. You have enough time. BYE
Bye bye.
