While looking at applying to The Beijing Center were there a few questions left unanswered? I know there definitely were a few for myself when I was researching this program as an option for study abroad. Among a few others, one genre of questions that kept popping up for me were: what classes will I be able to take? What will the classes be like? And, what’s the scheduling like? I’m here to answer these for you as well as share my story in the process of course registration/course equivalencies.

Why should you come to China? You mean besides the diverse culture, beautiful atmosphere, and delicious food? Even with the incredible things China has to offer, many people are, understandably, hesitant to commit to it as their study abroad destination, whether due to the language barrier, political concerns, or being so far away from their family. I shared all these sentiments before committing and coming here, and these worries followed me all the way to the 14-hour flight that brought me to Beijing. However, after being here I realized what was worth worrying about and what turned out to not be a big deal.
