With foreign capital, you can apply to run a private university in China, which is usually called Sino-foreign cooperation in running schools. The state encourages social forces to establish educational institutions that implement compulsory education as a supplement to the implementation of compulsory education by the state. Education administrative departments at all levels shall, in accordance with the prescribed examination and approval authority, issue school licenses to approved educational institutions.

Foreign legal person organizations, individuals and relevant international organizations may cooperate with educational institutions with legal person status in China and other social organizations to set up educational institutions mainly for China citizens in China to carry out education and teaching activities.
