Diploma/Certificate:


Upon graduation, students can get nationally acknowledged Diplomas issued by Beijing Language and Culture University.

Our course system is interrelated and credits are transferable with other colleges in BLCU. Those degree program candidates can learn part of their courses either through our college or through other colleges in BLCU. After they have acquired the credits needed for their degree programs, BLCU will grant the corresponding diploma according to the ratio of their total credits.

The non-degree program participants can get separate certificates and the corresponding credits after they have passed the test for that course/subject. They can accumulate their credits earned through online study of non-degree courses and are qualified to write graduation thesis after their credits have met the graduation requirements. Those who pass the final thesis defence are allowed to receive the B.A. certificates granted by BLCU. Their diplomas/certificates bear the letter of “W” as a difference to that of other on-campus programs.

The degree program candidates are required to complete 160 credits (including 4 credits for the graduation thesis) and pass the defence of their graduation theses before they can get the degree and diploma from BLCU.
