Language students, undergraduates, general visiting students and senior visiting students don’t need to take the entrance exam. Those who apply for the Master’s Degree or PhD. Degree have to take the entrance exam for admission. The school you applied will inform you the date and subjects of the test. Language students will take a placement test on registration day. When to arrive in China after I get the visa in my country? We recommend you arrive one week before registration date. Most students can apply an X visa which is only valid for 30 days with the admission letter and JW202 form received from ECNU. Some students will enter China with a tourist visa for one month. Both X visa and L visa holders must apply for a residence permit after your entry to China, you need time to get the temporary residence registration form and do the physical exam before you apply for the residence permit. So we suggest you do not arrive too early, one week before registration date will be fine. You will have enough time to process all the procedures with the help of the International Students Office.
