China has become a major destination for international students, with over 500,000 foreign students enrolled in Chinese universities. While many programs are taught in Chinese (requiring HSK), a growing number of prestigious universities offer English-taught programs (EMI) across fields like engineering, business, medicine, and computer science.
These English-taught programs require proof of English proficiency, and IELTS and TOEFL are the two most accepted tests.
Unlike some countries that accept informal English proficiency evidence, Chinese universities strictly enforce standardized test score requirements. Having a strong IELTS or TOEFL score is often the single most important factor in your application to an English-taught program.
Here are the typical minimum IELTS and TOEFL scores required by top Chinese universities for English-taught programs.
| University | Tier | IELTS | TOEFL |
|---|---|---|---|
| Tsinghua University | Top 5 | 6.5 | 90 |
| Peking University | Top 5 | 6.5 | 90 |
| Fudan University | Top 10 | 6.5 | 85 |
| Zhejiang University | Top 10 | 6.0 | 85 |
| Shanghai Jiao Tong University | Top 10 | 6.5 | 85 |
| Wuhan University | Top 20 | 6.0 | 80 |
