Available Courses
Students take courses in the LL.M. Program in Chinese Law while at Tsinghua. A list of course offerings is available online.
Tsinghua grades on a 100 point scale, available here. A passing grade is 60 points. Georgetown gives credits for law courses in which a student receives a passing grade.
Because new course offerings may not be publicized until the start of the term, it is possible that not all eligible courses are listed above. Participants in this program who wish to enroll in any course not listed above must contact the Office of Transnational Programs by email to request approval. Participants should not expect to receive credit for courses that are not expressly approved by OTP.
Housing
Georgetown students planning to study at Tsinghua are eligible for housing in University dormitories. Dormitories are on Tsinghua's large, park-like campus and located a short walk from the law faculty building and classrooms.
There are two options for dormitory space. Students can reserve a space in a shared room. The double room is equipped with air conditioning, telephone, television and internet access. There is a common bathroom on each floor. Students can also reserve a single room. The single rooms also come with air conditioning, telephone, television, internet access, and private bathrooms.
To live off campus, students must rent residential housing legally available to foreign residents and both the student and the landlord must register with the local police within 24 hours of a student moving into the residence.
Tsinghua facilities are not necessarily accessible to students with disabilities.
