Hi everyone,

So I've filled out the form to apply to Tsinghua in the fall for language study, but I don't know
how to send the application fee. How does one write a check for Chinese currency...?

Thanks,
Alan

hi alan - I had the same problem with Beida, but my chinese friends told me just to send a
personal check, because if they have a bank account with the Bank of China, they can most
certainly cash it. They send money to their parents this way. Also, because application fees are
small amounts, its not worth wiring the money anyway. But, you should also hear from others,
because Qinghua might not like a check.

On the info sheet for General Visiting Students at Beida, it specifically states:

Quote:

Application Fee:400RMB, pay in cash or Yinlian bank card. Foreign currency or check is not
acceptable.

I imagine the same will be true for Tsinghua, however you're probably best off calling them to
find out (don't rely on email, as most Chinese universities are incredibly unreliable/unresponsive
when it comes to email communication). The foreign student office phone numbers can be found here.

I just sent the money in rmb,
if there is a bank of china, maybe you can exchange currency and mail that in ?
btw, i m planning on going to beijing for fall semester too !

Hi there,

What you should do is to send a bank check.
you go to your bank and ask them to issue a check for Tsinghua University (or maybe they have a
special account for that - ask them), with the amount of 400rmb (or for the equivalent amount in
Dollars if your bank can't issue it using RMB - again, ask the office).
You can send it by normal mail (rather be registered, though), cause only the addressee can use
it, and you also can cancel it in any time. (in my case at least, you better check it in your
bank).
in simple words - it's a check from your bank to Tsinghua. you don't have to mess up with sending
cash or having troubles by using your own account.

send cash. Don't tell the post office. My post office employee kind of said you weren't allowed to
but then I explained that BNU (and other unis here) only accept cash. The guy at the post office
shrugged his shoulders and was like "no worries, lets just say I didn't hear you say anything..."

One month later I had gotten my acceptance letter.

Use cash, put it in a separate envelope which will go inside the A4 envelope which will have your
application materials and you're set.

Anyone know who do I address the bank cheque for my BNU application fee? Should I just address it
to: 'Office of International Scholars and Students' Affairs' - I think that's what it says on the
BNU Application Form.

Thanks!
