Higher Education.

Higher education in China is competitive to a degree that makes admission to university in the western world look like a walk in the park.

This is for a number of reasons – short supply in comparison with demand, an extreme emphasis on name-brand schools, and an admissions policy based on one make-or-break test score.  It’s enough to make anyone glad they didn’t matriculate in China!

Fortunately, one needn’t go though this hellish process to enjoy Beijing’s educational benefits as a foreign student.  Beijing is home to the two top-ranking universities in China, Peking University and Tsinghua University, as well as a host of other top-notch universities, making it the educational capital of China.

Many of these universities offer Chinese language programs, study abroad opportunities, and Master’s degrees taught in an English environment, making Beijing an excellent place to further your studies.
