Mainland Exchange Program
Students can only go on semester exchange once in our program – Overseas or Mainland Exchange, but not both. The Mainland exchange CGA requirement is also 2.65, except for Fudan, Peking, and Tsinghua where the CGA is 3.0 and no failing courses. The Mainland program selection criteria are similar to the criteria for Overseas Exchanges. The main difference is that NO INTERVIEW is required. The scoring will solely be based on a student’s CGA and online application.
Usually, the Mainland Exchange application opens after the Overseas Application and follow the below application periods:
Exchange Term | Application period | Students who can apply |
---|---|---|
3rd Year Fall Exchange | Feb - Mar | Year-2 students at the begining of Spring |
3rd Year Spring Exchange | Sep - Oct | Year-3 students at the begining of Fall |
4th Year Fall Exchange | Feb - Mar | Year-3 students at the begining of Spring |
There are currently 14 Mainland China universities in the exchange program. This program is administered by the OGL (Office of Global Learning). More details on this program can be found at the OGL website. Inquiries about this program can be emailed to: bmugexch@ust.hk.
