Tsing Hua Imperial College was founded in 1911 on the site of Tsinghua Garden in Beijing, a former Qing Dynasty imperial private garden. Tsinghua University is now a comprehensive university with 16 schools and 56 departments, currently ranked as the first or second best university in mainland China in many national and international rankings.
W&M students attending Tsinghua may focus on Chinese language and culture studies through the Chinese Language and Culture Center and may also choose from a limited list of content courses taught in English, which are offered primarily by the business and economics departments. Students proficient in Chinese may choose from the full university curriculum.
One may find more information from the university website: http://intlstudent.cic.tsinghua.edu.cn/EN/non-degree-programs/exchange.html
The tuition exchange agreement between the College of William & Mary and Tsinghua University allows W&M students to pay their regular tuition to W&M while taking classes at Tsinghua. W&M students pay housing, meals and fees on site in Beijing.
