Similar programme names can lead to different learning experiences. Use the curriculum, teaching format and professional context to understand what you will actually study.
Explore the learning format
Look at the balance of lectures, projects, laboratory or studio work, independent study and assessment. Choose a format that suits how you learn.

If your intended career requires professional registration, confirm recognition and licensing requirements with the relevant authority where you plan to practise.

Your school qualification is the starting point. The university will also consider the academic, language and assessment requirements for the programme and intake you choose.
01
School qualification
Prepare your high-school graduation certificate or accepted equivalent. If you are in your final year, check whether predicted results or expected-graduation evidence can support an application.
02
Subject preparation
Compare your school subjects with any programme prerequisites. Share individual subject grades as well as your overall result, especially where specific preparation matters.
03
Teaching-language evidence
For Chinese-taught study, check the required Chinese-language evidence. For English-taught study, confirm accepted tests and any exemption rules for the selected programme.
04
Entrance assessments
Check whether CSCA, another assessment, an interview or a portfolio applies. Confirm required subjects, accepted results and submission timing for the university and intake.
Bring the original grading scale with your results so your academic record can be reviewed accurately. BETU works with applicants aged 18 and above. Each university sets its own admission conditions.

Undergraduate questions
A few details
A few details
worth getting clear.
Can I apply before my final school results arrive?
Some universities accept applications using interim records or expected-graduation evidence. Confirm what your selected university accepts, when final results must arrive and any conditions attached to an offer.
Tell BETU when your results are due so we can help you plan your preparation timetable.
How long will my bachelor's degree take?
Check the published duration of the exact programme you are considering. Also account for any separate language or preparatory study and review progression requirements when estimating the full timeline.
Can I change subject after starting university?
A change of major depends on university policy, academic performance, available places and the receiving programme's conditions. Choose your initial course carefully and ask the university about its transfer rules before relying on a later change.
How do I check professional recognition?
Start with the authority responsible for your intended profession in the country where you plan to practise. Ask about the specific university, qualification, programme and any additional examinations or supervised practice required.
What if I need more language preparation first?
Compare a later degree intake with a suitable language-preparation option. Check how the extra study period affects your budget and the deadline for the language evidence your degree application requires.
How many universities will BETU help me apply to?
Your service quote specifies the agreed application scope. Discuss your preferred options and priorities with us so the number of applications and related preparation are clear before you commit.
