In this environment? Absolutely not. Trump is about to enact Chinese students after they’ve already paid. I would not pay for this and then risk getting deported from China (or worse!).

Teaching style is massively different. That’s not bad, just different. I don’t believe that foreign students are fully mainstreamed but there would be a lot of other foreign students.

The student would have to be flexible and go with the flow. Lots more rules to follow.


How do you know all this?

Would it just be for a semester? Shanghai is a fun city. I’d say go for it.

Better Chinese programs in the US?

Definitely not your typical college experience - probably comes with significant risk that your kid may struggle. I do think for the right kid who could embrace the opportunity it could be life changing.

There was a time when foreigners might come to the U.S. to avoid censorship. That time, however, has passed: https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/us-politics/rumeysa-ozturk-tufts-university-ice-arrest-b2722397.html

I’m a bit wary of China programs right now. UMich just ended its partnership with a Shanghai University this year—
