APPLICATION DEADLINE

PROGRAM DURATION AND DATES
This program offers flexibility in regards to program length and time. With rolling enrollment, people can apply to come at anytime throughout the year, with the exception of Chinese holidays. (Holidays are during the 1st week of February, May, and October.) Applicants can also choose the duration of their program, either the short term option or the regular MBA program option.
*SALARY
MBA program participants will receive a local salary commensurate with their skills, abilities and local job conditions and salary levels. The salary can vary according to qualifications of the applicant and duration of the internship (longer internships are beneficial in negotiating monthly compensation). Participants must work 5 days per week in order to qualify for local salary. For more information regarding the internships themselves, please see our Internships link Internships link.
** APARTMENT SEARCH AND SHORT TERM ACCOMODATIONS
Participants in the short term MBA program will be placed in hotel style accommodations, such as long term hotel or dormitory, as it is impossible to sign a lease for a period of less than 12 weeks.
Accommodation costs are not included in this program package.
Interns will be placed in a hotel until a suitable apartment can be located. The first three nights of this hotel are covered by the program fee.
The apartment search option is for participants staying in China for more than 3 months. Based on the criteria provided by the participant (budget, location, style, duration, etc.), Abroad China's team will identify up to 4 potential apartments. An Abroad China team member will accompany the participant to view these apartments and will assist in negotiating and signing the lease. If the participant is not satisfied with the 4 choices, they are able to continue the apartment search on their own; Abroad China's staff will help negotiate the lease for any apartment found.
*** LANGUAGE STUDY OPTION
Language study fees are not included in the program fee, however, Abroad China will assist in finding a suitable language school for each participant's needs; language study fees are paid by the participant directly to the language school.
We encourage applicants who do not speak Chinese to utilize the study option, as English is not widely spoken even in major cities in China, and learning the local language can make daily life easier and more fulfilling. With both one-on-one and group classes, participants can enroll in beginner, intermediate or advanced classes depending upon their level. Those students who have some Chinese ability will be given a placement test before being assigned to a class.
Hourly rates and minimum amount of class hours depend on Chinese level of the applicant. For beginner to advanced levels, rates can range from $10-$12 per hour, with minimum requirement of 60-90 hours of class, respectively. Since a placement test will determine hourly rate and minimum required hours, class schedules will be determined upon arrival. Abroad China will assist each interested applicant with the enrollment process. Participants will pay the cost of their classes directly to the language institute upon arrival and enrollment.
