SHANGHAI - SHANGHAI UNIVERSITY - SILC Business School

2 students x 6 months (suggested for undergraduate students);

Language requirements: English B2*

Application deadlines: I semester:  30 April, II semester: 19 November

 

*Very important info for exchange students who decide to select this destination: the School of Management, the School of Economics and MBA Center are independent colleges within Shanghai University. The agreement is with SILC Business School. Please be aware that all postgraduate courses in the SILC Accounting major are taught in Chinese. Only the Finance program offers postgraduate courses in English. Generally speaking, exchange students' Chinese proficiency is not sufficient for full Chinese-taught courses.

*Language requirements: great command of the English language is a must (writing AND speaking). Academic IELTS 6.5 overall; or TOEFL paper based 550 – 583 overall; or TOEFL internet based 79 -93 overall; or a language proficiency proof letter issued by the home university.

*Student Application Procedure:

First step of application - the students should fill in the information on the registration website (http://www.apply.shu.edu.cn) within a specified period of time. The web is only available during that period. The detailed requirements and time of online application will be sent to students after the nomination.

Second step of application - the SILC International Office will then send another email to students directly for visa purpose. It is for obtaining the JW form (the official Visa Application Form for Foreign Students) and the Admission Notice. When the JW form and the Admission Notice are ready, SILC will mail the documents to the home university coordinator or the students themselves. After the students receive the documents, they can contact the local Chinese embassy for the visa application procedure.

*Accommodation: SILC Business School is located in Jiading Campus (Address: No. 20 Chengzhong Road, Jiading District, Shanghai). All courses for exchange students will take place on Jiading Campus, so we suggest students live  on or near Jiading campus. There is an international student dorm building (named Yiyuan) on Jiading campus. But the rooms are very limited, and we cannot guarantee students can receive what they apply for.
If students want to apply for an on-campus dorm, please apply for the Yiyuan dorm through writing an email to the International Office two months before your arrival at Shanghai. One week before the new term starts. SILC will inform the exchange students whether they can live in the dorm. Again, whether the students can live in the dormitory depends on availability of rooms. If the students do not want to wait until one week before the new term starts, please book accommodation by yourselves or live in a nearby hotel. The recommended websites are www.booking.com

NOTE: students should live in a place which provides police station registration. In China, every non-citizen should do the police station accommodation registration within 24 hours after his or her arrival.
