I want to study abroad in Kunming for the spring semester 2014. I would like to just enroll directly into one of the universities in Kunming. I want to mainly study Mandarin for the semester I am there. Does anyone have any recommendations on good schools that have study abroad programs for chinese language?

I am also having a difficult time figuring out how to apply to some of the universities I have been looking at (Yunnan university, Yunnan normal university, and Yunnan nationalities university)

I could use some advice on how to apply, which schools are good for learning Chinese, and anything else you think is useful.

Thanks!
