To offer a little more information on our Chinese language classes, these classes are divided into levels depending on the students' Chinese abilities. Before the start of a semester, students can choose to take a placement exam and be sorted to a class of their appropriate level. Students who take this placement exam will have to pay a fee. Students who don't will automatically be placed in level 1 of a Chinese language class. The Chinese class itself does not require an additional fee.
