I don't speak Chinese. Can I apply to this programme?

Chinese-taught programmes usually require HSK 4 or 5. If you don't speak Chinese, many universities let you start with a one-year Chinese preparatory programme and then join your degree; the preparatory year has its own tuition.

Can I extend my studies?

Most Chinese universities apply a flexible study period for bachelor's degrees: if you cannot complete your courses or take a break, you may study longer than the standard duration. The maximum period and conditions are set out in the university's regulations; an extension requires the university's approval and an extended residence permit. Scholarships usually cover only the standard duration.

Can I change my programme?

At most universities a change of programme is usually possible after the first year, subject to places, grades and the university's approval. Moving to a programme taught in a different language (English to Chinese or vice versa) requires a language certificate; scholarship holders also need the scholarship body's approval. The safest course is to choose your programme carefully when you apply; your adviser can help.
