What more can we say about China that you don’t already know? It’s a cradle of culture, philosophy, and art, that changed the course of history with every invention and every dynasty; not to mention the great works of Sun Tzu and Confucius that are still quoted and used as life guide.
Knowing all this, why wouldn’t students wish to come here, especially to be close to the birthplace of the Zen school of Buddhism that encourages individuals to find inner peace and relaxation?
Thinking of the great atmosphere and culture, China seems like the ideal international destination for your studies.
Whether we focus only on Asia or we look at it from a global perspective, Chinese universities are among the top providers of higher education. Over 100 universities in China earn their places in the well-respected global rankings, which are updated ever year.
You know the saying "actions speak louder than words"? The Chinese government is the perfect positive example, at least in terms of attracting international students. Local authorities have not only talked about but also invested heavily into creating an inviting environment for non-locals.
It's enough to look at the huge number of scholarships and sponsorships available — over 40,000 — to realise the importance that the government places on attracting international talents.
Chinese isn't only the most spoken language worldwide, but it is also an in-demand language, one that can help you find well-paid jobs at Chinese companies or subsidiaries all over the world.
Sure, it's not exactly easy to learn Chinese. But if the passion is there and you're open to the idea, studying and living in China for a few years will give you all the needed support to master this language.
With so many CVs looking all the same, it's no wonder that businesses and HR departments are having a hard time finding exceptional candidates. But if you graduate with a diploma from a Chinese university, you won't have this problem as a future job seeker.
Chinese universities are well-respected, and any HR specialist knows that not anybody has the courage or the personal resources to succeed as a student in the world' most populous nation.
China has a unique culture, with an interesting blend of influences, values, and traditions.
From the Confucian beliefs to the national pride, from the emphasis on family to the immensely popular ping-pong (table tennis), from the Chinese calligraphy to kung fu, and from traditional festivals to the passion for tea — few nations can match China's rich and colourful culture.
China covers all fields of education, but it can be hard to decide what to study and what are the most lucrative and popular degrees out there. So, because we’re super helpful and awesome, we made this nifty list of the most popular study options in China. They are:
China is the fourth largest country in the world, so it can be difficult to decide on the city you’re better suited for.
Still, in fairness, nothing compares to the major cities in China, when it comes to universities and student nightlife. So, there’s no wonder pupils flock to study in Beijing in favour of the rest of the cities.
China has 44 ranked universities in the top 500. Seeing as it can be difficult to go through all of them and decide which is the best to attend, we tried to make it easier and select two of the most popular ones. They are:
Chinese universities receive a lot of applicants yearly, so there are a lot of auxiliary websites for students to ask for help and manage their applications. These websites are:
You can also apply on your own, of course, directly at the university you’ve chosen. However, whichever way you decide to apply, the documents needed are the same, which are:

Before we get to the tuition fees, we should mention the application fees: these vary between 90 and 120 USD.
Students can always check out scholarships and other financial aid to cover their study expenses.

Here's a breakdown of the average living expenses in China:

Its population of more than 1.3 billion accounts for approximately one-fifth of the world population.
