GMAC Launches ‘Study in China’ Initiative in Partnership with 11 Leading Business Schools in China

BEIJING and HONG KONG, June 22, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- On June 22, the Graduate Management Admission Council (GMAC) joins hands with 11 leading business schools in China to launch the “Study in China” initiative. This partnership marks the opening of an interactive platform for international students across 20 Belt and Road (B&R) regions to explore opportunities in China and to pursue higher education in business-related fields. The “Study in China” initiative aims to meet rapidly growing international student demand and to champion China as a world-class study destination and emerging global hub for business education.

The “Study in China” online portal (www.studyinchinamba.com) officially launched today allows students to discover more about studying and living in China. The newly designed English-language website connects prospective students with partner business schools and offers access to an abundance of information to help find the perfect fit for their China education experience. GMAC’s gateway guides international applicants from these Belt and Road regions in Asia, the Middle East, Africa, and Europe through the necessary steps to begin a new learning chapter in one of the most dynamic economies in the world. It offers in-depth information and insider advice on the schools and programs available, including international program structure, syllabus overview, admission requirements, application times, campus facilities, scholarships and financial aid. Students can also opt-in to conveniently contact the schools for further detail via GMAC’s one-stop portal.

To offer a glimpse into the great opportunities available, GMAC is organizing a “Study in China” contest from June 22 to August 31. Participants submit short essays about why they want to study in China to win a round-trip to China. Three selected winners will be awarded return economy flights and campus accommodation to visit preferred business schools and enjoy a first-hand experience of the school and campus life.

The new initiative partners with China’s most prestigious business schools located in Beijing, Shanghai, and Hong Kong. The top-ranked institutions include Antai College of Economics and Management, Shanghai Jiao Tong University; China Europe International Business School; CUHK Business School, The Chinese University of Hong Kong; School of Management, Fudan University; HKUST Business School, The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology; Guanghua School of Management, Peking University; Business School, Renmin University of China; School of Economics and Management, Tsinghua University; BiMBA Business School of the National School of Development, Peking University; Cheung Kong Graduate School of Business; and HKBU School of Business, Hong Kong Baptist University.
