[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DC wants to study CS or computer related major.  Wants to cast a wide net for both domestic and international universities.  Very little information we can find regarding these two schools other the the US News world ranking.  Would like to know if anyone's kids have studied there.  Are the program rigorous?  Are international students treated equally as the Chinese domestic students in terms of courses offered?[/quote]

Right now, there are very few western students, particularly Americans, studying in mainland China. And no, a foreign student will never be regarded the same as a Chinese student. It's a different place. It's one thing to go for a semester on a dedicated study abroad program with all the protections. But to apply for four years would be extremely unusual for an American and I suspect unlikely to lead to an admission and a visa. I'd suggest looking at Singapore or Taiwan, but even then the visa will be difficult for a rando from America. And this presumes you're pretty fluent in Chinese. Some classes might be in English, but it's impossible to make the most of things if you don't speak the language. [/quote]

I believe the highly rated Singapore technical college is English classes.[/quote]
