Study Abroad Programs in Asia

Words like “vast” and “diverse” cannot begin to describe the number of options for study abroad in Asia. Encompassing nearly one-third of the Earth’s land mass and nearly two-thirds of the world’s population, the largest continent on Earth is as different from country to country as yin and yang. Nonetheless, there are regional ties, historical complexities, and geographical similarities that help unite Asia under one distinct identity. Study abroad programs in Asia are best for students who are ready for a grand adventure in a place filled with centuries of history worth exploring.

September 17, 2025by: Daniel Rodriguez - United KingdomProgram: Learn Chinese at China's Top Universities

I studied Mandarin at a top university in Beijing thru GAC and it was amazeing! The teachers were great and I learned so fast. The class size was small which really helped. I lived in the dorms and it was a good way to make friends. The university campus was beautiful and there was always something to do. My Chinese improved a ton and I already plan to go back next year. If you want to learn Chinese seriously, this is the program for you!

September 17, 2025by: Emma Chen - United KingdomProgram: GAC Chinese Language Immersion Program

I joind the GAC Chinese immersion program in Beijing and it was absolutly amazeing! The classes were small and the teachers were super nice and helpful, I really feel like my Mandarin improved so fast. I stayed with a host family and they made me feel like part of the family, we cooked together and they even took me to local places tourists dont normaly see. The cultural activitees were so fun and I met friends from all over the world. Sometimes the homework was a lot but it was worth it. I would totally recomend this program to anyone who wants to learn Chinese and have a great time!
