Thank you for your interest in the IPSA Consortium
Chinese (Mandarin) Language School in Beijing, China
Application Deadlines
Normally, we must receive a complete set of application documents and fees no later than 30 days before the program starts. Acceptance of late applications is subject to space availability.
Financial Aid
In many cases, it is possible for students to transfer much or all of their financial aid to IPSA study abroad programs presented on this site. However, students should discuss specific plans with study abroad advisers and financial aid counselors well in advance of the program. It is the student's responsibility to understand the home institution's requiremnents and deadlines regarding all financial aid funds.
Academic Credits
Students who wish to receive credit for our programs should contact the study abroad office or language department at your college or university prior to starting the program. Present your plan to them asking for detailed requirements on how to arrange credit in advance. With the detailed information from your home-campus, we can typically provide syllabae and other documentation to complete arrangements.
