Beijing Foreign Studies University (BFSU) is China's leading language-focused university, teaching more languages than any other institution in the country. It's located in Beijing and takes part in the "Double First-Class" initiative.

Chinese universities tighten portfolio and motivation-letter requirements every year — we track this university by university, so every application matches what the admissions committee actually expects right now.

BFSU is especially strong in translation, international relations and diplomacy — many of China's diplomats and top-level interpreters are its graduates.

The university admits international students to language programs, bachelor's and master's degrees, and offers grants. A natural choice for combining Chinese with international relations or translation studies.

Many students get in through our preparatory Language Year — an intensive year of Chinese at a partner university, followed by a move onto the main program.
