Evaluation and Admissions
THU admits students based on evaluation of their application documents together with a comprehensive assessment. The application materials are reviewed by an expert group of the relevant disciplinaries, and the candidates for the comprehensive assessment will be selected based on the review results. The comprehensive assessment is generally based on interviews. The specific content, format, requirements, and time arrangements are determined by each program and will be notified to applicants who enter the comprehensive assessment.
