life and studies at DKU, and begin to prepare for your transition to college this coming summer. Please note,
email will continue to be our official channel of communication for DKU admissions information and updates.
Additionally, we have created a Discord chat group where you will be able to meet your fellow admitted
students and DKU Student Ambassadors. This group is meant to provide an informal space for admitted
students to chat and ask questions of our current students.

One important note is that this offer of admission is made with the expectation that you will continue to
maintain high standards -- academic, behavioral, and disciplinary -- and that you qualify as an international
student status under China Nationality Law and Ministry of Education’s Guidelines Governing International
Enrollment at Chinese Universities. Click here for information regarding citizenship and eligibility. If there is
any relevant change to the information in your application, please inform us promptly.  Should your standing in
any of these areas significantly change between now and the beginning of our fall term, the offer of admission
may be reevaluated by the Admissions Committee.

Once again, congratulations! We are thrilled to send you this wonderful news and we look forward to you
becoming part of our community. If you have questions, please let us know and we will be happy to assist.

Sincerely,

Jessica Sandberg

double room is RMB 7,500. The exchange rate will be reassessed each semester to account for market
fluctuations.

*** Transportation cost varies dependent on departure location. Please estimate at least one round-trip
from your location to Shanghai (PVG airport). Students wishing to travel during breaks from the
academic year should budget additional funds for those trips.

Please note that financial aid awards apply only to tuition and cannot be applied to other education-related costs
such as room, board, books, health insurance, or transportation. For your reference, we have included the total
estimated cost of attendance for 2022-2023.  The most up-to-date figures are posted on the Duke Kunshan
