That depends on the program, generally the cost of living in China is low, and the dining expense for most international students is about 150 US dollars. The cost at Seoul, Korea and Tokyo, Japan is somewhat higher, but it is still very reasonable.

How far in advance should I apply?
It is always good to apply early, so you can have everything ready and be well prepared. Summer programs sometimes become full before the deadline. The deadline for most programs is about 45-60 days before the program start date.

How long does it take for the application process?
After we receive your application and program deposit, we will reserve you a space in the program. Depending on the program you are applying for and the country you are from (usually if you are in a student from a non-western country), you may need a letter for short term visa application, it will take 2-3 weeks at least. But for a student visa application to Japan (to stay for 1 year or more), it can take about 6 months for the whole process. Considering the time needed for visa application and ticket booking, we advice you to apply early.
