Print Print this Article | Send to Colleague

Application Deadline: September 9, 2011

The College Board is pleased to announce the November 2011 EducationUSA Connect-China delegation—a new opportunity for accredited U.S. institutions and higher education associations to participate in a two-week delegation to the People’s Republic of China. Sponsored and fully funded for up to 16 participants by the U.S. Department of State, the trip will include visits to national secondary schools and universities in collaboration with EducationUSA. The key objectives focus on building linkages with local institutions capable of hosting study abroad programs for U.S. students, joint degree or twinning programs, and opportunities for faculty and administrator exchange.

The tentative travel schedule is: arrival in Beijing on November 5, and departure to the U.S. on November 19.

Participants will deliver information sessions and workshops for students, families, and educators across the country to explain the U.S. higher education system and admission process, and to discuss academic programs and exchange initiatives. An orientation will be held in Beijing, followed by travel to central Chinese cities. The announcement and application form may be downloaded at www.educationusa.info/highered.php

Eligibility: Accredited U.S. higher education institutions and higher education associations are eligible to apply. Applicants must be aware of the role of EducationUSA advising; applications from representatives of campuses or organizations that have hosted EducationUSA advisers are especially welcome. Participants in the September 2010 EducationUSA Working Group on China are not eligible.
