China Foreign Affairs University (CFAU) is a small, elite institution in Beijing, founded in 1955 on Premier Zhou Enlai's own initiative specifically to train China's diplomats. It reports directly to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
Chinese universities tighten portfolio and motivation-letter requirements every year β we track this university by university, so every application matches what the admissions committee actually expects right now.
CFAU isn't part of Project 211 or 985 β as a narrowly specialized, ministry-run institution it sits outside that classification β but its admission scores and competitiveness rank among the highest of any Chinese university. A significant share of China's ambassadors and senior diplomats are CFAU graduates.
The university specializes in diplomacy, international relations, international law, and foreign languages for the diplomatic service. Its small size means unusually close contact with faculty, many of whom have their own diplomatic experience. CFAU admits a limited number of international students to language programs, bachelor's and master's degrees.

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

Common questions about admission
Why apply through UNIPROFI specifically?
UNIPROFI is about a well-thought-out application and a strong outcome: we build an application path around your profile, goals and the requirements of your selected universities. You work with mentors who are current students or graduates of these schools, so you get real understanding of the system, campuses and opportunities β not theory. We take on complex cases (including minors and admission without an 11th-grade diploma), build an individual strategy for your profile and goals, and support you through every stage, from documents to your visa.
Do you guarantee admission?
We don't offer "guarantees for the sake of a sale," because no one can directly influence a university's decision. What we do is structure everything to minimize the risk of rejection β matching you to the right universities, building a strong application strategy, and preparing documents carefully. Any refund or re-application arrangement is governed only by the current service agreement and the circumstances of the case.
What are my actual chances of getting in?
We do not state a universal admission probability because the decision belongs to the university. We instead assess your profile, programme requirements and application strategy.
Can I apply on my own β why do I need you?
You can, but most students end up losing time, making mistakes, or settling for weaker universities. We save you months, help you start at a stronger level, and prevent the mistakes that can cost you admission.
