Students who choose to study in Beijing through the Capital Normal University will be directly enrolled, without the aid of a liaison program. Capital Normal was founded in 1954, and is ranked consistently among China's top universities, with around 25,000 enrolled students. This program is recommended to students interested in a driven year or semester of learning Chinese, as well as direct academic and cultural immersion in Beijing. Autonomy is a necessity, and students must be prepared to navigate their time abroad with little guidance.
Intensive Chinese language classes are provided for international students in addition to the general roster of university courses. For students with less experience with the Chinese language, for whom the program serves as an intense introduction, select courses are offered in English.
