Step 1: ask yourself these questions Where do I want to go in China? Do I even care where the uni is placed?

Do I want to live in a big international city or a smaller second-tier one?

Chinese pronunciation - clearer in the north, but tons of beautiful travel destinations in the south - what do I want out of my program?

Do I like the hot or cold weather? (Chinese temperatures varies a lot from south to north)

Do I like spicy food? (Some provinces are famous for spicy food)

How much money do I have to spend? (There are big differences between the Chinese cities)
