Humanities comprises of academic disciplines that study the conditions of the human body and the essence of what it means to be human in this dynamic rapid growing world. Liberal arts and Humanities are very similar in many ways and these terms are mostly interchangeable. Mostly, the degree courses offered by the department of humanities are listed as part of social science courses because both disciplines deal with the study of the behavior of humans and the society we live in.
Humanities cover a broad spectrum of interdisciplinary study of society and culture throughout history. Practitioners use ways that are primarily analytic, critical or speculative to study subjects belonging to languages, literature, law, history, visual and performing arts, religion, etc.
Students who obtain Humanities degree develop a great and broad understanding of cultural expression and improve their analytical and communication skills. Students can improve their understanding of society through satisfying their intellectual curiosity in subjects such as philosophy, art, history and literature with an emphasis on multiculturalism.

Answer: When an application is pending a decision it means that your school has received it and no admissions decision has been made yet. The admissions office may have reviewed your application package or may not have.
The main cause of a pending application is usually incomplete application documents. As a result you will be requested by the school’s admission office to re-check and modify all submitted application documents or perhaps even add extra documents and then re-submit them.
To avoid further delays, carefully read the university’s comments, modify your application form on ACASC, and re-upload the required application documents. You can contact ACASC on admission@acasc.cn for any help with regards to your pending application
Answer: Processing time varies for different applications. For example to process a degree program application requires more time than a Chinese language application. Confirmation for Chinese language application by the admission office usually takes 2 to 4 weeks. However, time for degree programs application differs. For example fall semester application processing is after March, and it takes a period of 1 to 2 months. This also depends on your qualification and the number of applicants.
