FAQ

Do I have to do medical check before submit the application?

Not must, but if the quarantine institute finds that you have caught diseases
which are unsuitable to study in China, you must instantly leave for home country on your own expenses.

What about the dorm on campus?

Sorry but the university only provides limited number of single suites with private bathrooms and balconies, at the cost of 80 RMB/day or 110 RMB/day (the cost varies depending on the new or old furniture with it, 24-hour hot and cold water included, but electricity excluded). The online booking system is usually open one month before the semester starts for applicants who are admitted and have paid the tuition. Those who have successfully booked on-campus dorms must pay the accommodation fee for one semester in full at registration in the beginning of the semester.

I’ve got the visa to China, when can I enter China?

Since you may have maximum 180 days of stay in China, make sure not enter China too early, it’s better arrive China 10 days before the registration day.
