(Reminder: make sure to sign the "Declaration" on the last page of the application form.) In this form, you need to write a brief statement of purpose. Although the presentation format may differ, all programs will require you to provide written reasons for wishing to join our exchange program.

Submit one photocopy of the official transcript. The school’s official seal or stamp must be visible on the document submitted. These documents must be in Chinese or English.
