Peking University’s Pre-University Program for International Students (PUP) aims to make use of our school’s excellent educational resources to train a cohort of outstanding global scholars. It provides academically-outstanding high-school graduates, that wish to pursue an undergraduate degree at our school, with one to two years of preparatory training. The PUP pays equal attention to the accumulation of language-related knowledge and the training of language ability. It not only aims to improve all aspects of participants’ Chinese, but also places particular importance on the broadening of students’ general knowledge, academic horizons and ability to think and study independently, with a view to building a strong academic and linguistic foundation for future undergraduate study.

Upon completion of the PUP, international students that have performed well academically and obtained excellent results will be recommended for priority entry when applying for future undergraduate study at Peking University.
