Ni Wayan Yudita Sekardianti (Lombok)

S1 Tourism Management | Nankai University | Chinese Government Scholarship
“I applied for tourism management. Since I had never interviewed before, I was a bit nervous about how I would come across. Elite Linguistic Academy provided typical interview questions that usually come up, and indeed, they were mostly asked. The day before the interview, I had a rehearsal with a teacher, and on the actual day, I had a clear idea of what to expect.”

Jeanne Hazell (Batam)

S2 International Business | Central University of Finance and Economics | International Chinese Language Teachers Scholarship
“At first, I thought, ‘Oh no, I’m missing one document, so Elite can’t process my application yet.’ But it turns out, they had already started the application process in installments to the university, so I just need to plan my studies to follow. So, the remaining documents are already secure. That really put my mind at ease.”

Jesselyn (Jakarta)

1 Year Mandarin | Ludong University | Fully Funded Scholarship
“I didn’t really expect it because I thought it wouldn’t happen since I had been waiting for months without any news. So, when I finally got the admission, I was pleasantly surprised. I’m really happy with Elite Linguistic Academy they truly helped me a lot. Whenever I didn’t understand something, they were quick to assist.”

Colyn Bernice (Batam)

1 Year Mandarin | Nanchong Vocational and Technical College | Fully Funded Scholarship
“The consultant will suggest possibilities that are most closely related to us. I also made an effort to study and prepare so that I wouldn’t be completely blank when applying this year. I feel like I’m being guided. So whenever there’s a step to take, I receive information about it. It’s not just Elite pushing us to fight or strive, we also need to have the intention ourselves, so both aspects align.”

FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)

Sure, you can enroll in a degree program with English as the medium of instruction or a 1-year Mandarin language program starting from scratch. However, Elite Linguistic Academy still recommends that you learn the basics of Mandarin, especially everyday vocabulary, to make it easier for you to adapt in China later on.

The HSK certificate is a Mandarin language proficiency exam certificate organized by Hanban, known in full as the Hanyu Shuiping Kaoshi (汉语水平考试).

Currently, the HSK exam is divided into two types: the HSK exam (listening, reading, writing) and the HSKK exam (speaking). However, these exams are now bundled as follows:

  • HSK 1
  • HSK 2
  • HSK 3 + HSKK Beginner
  • HSK 4 + HSKK Intermediate
  • HSK 5 + HSKK Advanced
  • HSK 6 + HSKK Advanced

Note: The HSKK exam can be taken separately without the HSK exam, but the HSK exam cannot be taken separately as it is bundled with the HSKK exam.

The HSK certificate is valid for 2 years from the date of the HSK exam listed on the certificate.

Teachers/Laoshi at Elite Linguistic Academy come from diverse backgrounds, including native Chinese speakers and Singaporeans, depending on the Mandarin proficiency level being taught.

Generally, the distribution of teachers in Group Classes is as follows:
HSK 1-2: Singaporean Teachers
HSK 3: Singaporean Teachers/Native Chinese
HSK 4-6: Native Chinese

Usually, it’s divided into Down Payment and Full Payment.
Down Payment 30-40% (depending on the program), is paid when you decide to register for a study in China with Elite Linguistic Academy.
Full Payment is made when you have received an admission notice/letter of acceptance from the university.

Hey there! We’re sorry about the delay. There are two possible reasons why your message hasn’t been answered by Elite Linguistic Academy:

  2. We may have a high volume of messages, causing a delay in responding to yours.

Not necessarily, but it depends on the requirements of each university. Regardless, Elite Linguistic Academy still recommends that you learn basic Mandarin, especially everyday vocabulary, to make it easier to adapt to life in China.

Full Funded Scholarship

This type of funding covers all expenses, including tuition fees, accommodation, insurance, and a monthly allowance in a specific amount.

The most popular full-funded scholarships among Indonesian students are the CGS (Chinese Government Scholarship) and CIS (Confucius Institute Scholarship).

Partial Scholarship

This type of funding covers part of the expenses, with various scopes of coverage:

  • Some only cover tuition fees,
  • Others cover both tuition and accommodation,
  • Some provide a specific amount that must be allocated by the student for their needs.

Self Funded

This type of funding requires students to cover all expenses themselves. As the name suggests, “self-funded” means financing by oneself without any scholarships.

While it may sound daunting and expensive, some universities in China offer special programs each year with discounts or affordable tuition and living costs. This makes studying in China more accessible and manageable.

Generally, it’s not allowed, except for internships or part-time opportunities offered by the university where you are studying.

Elite Linguistic Academy Success Fee: Paid in installments from the moment you decide to register with Elite Linguistic Academy (down payment) until you are accepted into a Chinese university (final payment).

For the 1-Year Mandarin & Degree Programs (Bachelor’s, Master’s, PhD), the intake is usually in September. Registration opens at various times from December of the previous year until March of the current year, and it closes at various times from March to July.

For the 1-Semester Mandarin Program, the intake is usually in March. Registration opens at various times starting from the … previous year and also closes at various times, starting from the … previous year.

However, for preparation, Elite Linguistic Academy recommends:

  • Language Preparation: As early as possible
  • Language Certification Exam: 1 year or 6 months before applying (to ensure the language certificate is still valid)
  • Start Consultation: 8-12 months before intake is a safe timeframe (to avoid rushing)

Please consult further with Elite Linguistic Academy’s consultants to ensure you don’t miss out on any opportunities!
