Concordian Alumni Talk: Studying at University in China
Concordian was delighted to welcome a group of our alumni back to campus for a special event where they shared their experiences of studying and living in China with our parent community. The morning provided a valuable opportunity for parents to gain first-hand insight into university life in China and to learn more about the opportunities available at some of the country’s leading institutions.
Our alumni, from a range of prestigious universities, spoke candidly about their academic journeys, campus life, and the cultural experiences that come with studying in China. Students represented an impressive group of institutions, including
• Tsinghua University
• Fudan University
• Shanghai Jiao Tong University
• Zhejiang University
• NYU Shanghai
• The University of Nottingham Ningbo
• Xi’an Jiaotong-Liverpool University
Each alumnus shared their personal story, discussing everything from the university application process and adapting to a new academic environment, to building friendships and embracing life in vibrant cities such as Beijing, Shanghai, Ningbo, and Suzhou. Their honest reflections gave parents a clearer understanding of both the opportunities and challenges that come with studying abroad.
We would like to extend a special thank you to Khun Sun, who served as the Master of Ceremonies for the event. His guidance and thoughtful facilitation helped create a warm and engaging atmosphere for both the alumni speakers and the audience.
Events such as this highlight the strength of the Concordian community and the willingness of our alumni to give back by supporting the next generation of students. We are incredibly grateful to our returning alumni for sharing their time, insights, and experiences.
