<content:encoded><![CDATA[Hello everybody,

I'm considering applying for the KUST Chinese language program and was hoping somebody could help me with a few questions:

1) Is it possible to join their Chinese language program in early 2017? I know the program starts in September, but their website says you can join at anytime. Does anybody have any insight into this?

2) What is the best way to apply to the university? I was thinking of using admissions.cn since their is no application fee. Does anybody have experience with this website? Does anybody know how long it would take to hear back from them about my acceptance?

3) I would like to apply specifically to their 10 hour/week program. Do I need to somehow designate this in my application or do I choose this option after being accepted to the university?

I would appreciate any info you can give me.

Thanks.]]></content:encoded>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[OP. It depends what you mean by the Chinese language program. 
If you mean the degree program, I can't help. If it is just the language learning courses, you probably cannot apply through admissions.cn. In this case you would need to contact the university dept. that deals with this directly. If you are not an absolute beginner, and willing to pay, then you could slot into the course that started in Sept.
If they try to sell you an more expensive, small group/one to one program, there are non-university programs that would likely do a better job.]]></content:encoded>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[All of the unis are on holiday this week. They should start again today.
Most unis are notoriously bad at sorting out anything non standard. Another reason to look at the like of KEATS, Huayang, and other programs that were designed to be flexible in the first place. 
If you are a really studious person, a uni might suite you. If you just want to learn Chinese, and with a more practical leaning, a uni may give you a bad experience.]]></content:encoded>
