ACASC has a pre-departure guide that prepares students for when they are about to travel to school in China, arrival in china and what they can expect at the university. The guide ultimately helps you gain perspective on what the course will be like as well as some of the facilities you can find on the grounds.

This guide will also brief you on what to expect in terms of the climate, the food and the hospitality of the cghinese people and the foreigners you will meet at the univerity. We will try our best to make this guide as informative as possible, and touch on some main issues, which includes some of the important things that you will need to bring from home.

This is sometimes a matter of preference because most of the things that you might even carry along to China will most probably be here anyway. However in your first few days or weeks when you are not so familiar with your surroundings, you might have to depend on these things for a while. 

Some people recommend that you carry along some snacks and some very important toiletries that you will use during your first few days and weeks.

All international students living outside China have to obtain an X Visa (Student Visa) before they can be able to travel to China and study. The requirements for obtaining an X Visa differ from country to country. But this guide will give you the general requirements.

Prepare Your Luggage

The most important luggage that you will need to carry along when coming to study in China are your documents and school fees. These are very important when you enter China. This is because, you will have to to extend your visa and apply for a resident permit when you arrive at the university, and without your documents, that will not be possible. It is also very important to make sure t hat you have the money needed to pay for the universities fees. 

Because of security issues and other factors, every student might have their own preferred method of carrying their fees. Some deposit their fees on bank cards and then when they get to the university, they withdraw from atms. With this method you should be sure that your atm card will work in China and that you will not encounter ay problems in the withdrawal of the money.

There are some basic items that you’ll need when traveling to China. Kindly be sure that you’ve secured all these things before you board your flight.

NB: Don't forget to bring along the documents that you used for your visa application.
