Preparing yourself appropriately is one of the most serious challenges you face as a student. EAP gives you a direct educational connection with the rest of the world. It helps you gain the edge you need to function with confidence and compete with success in the global environment. As a UC student, there is a minimum qualification to get into the program, and while as EAP students are eligible for financial assistance , they should contact the Campus EAP , and financial aid office. The housing arrangements vary by locations.
Students live in apartments, boarding houses, university dormitories, or with families.
Linguistically qualified students are encouraged to take regular university courses in a wide range of fields. A seven-week intensive language program at Tsinghua University in Beijing precedes the year. Space permitting, qualified students may extend participation for the second semester at either Peking University or BNU taking Chinese language and regular university courses in selected fields. Instruction is in standard Chinese. .
