One of the most important policy requirements for overseas students in Beijing is "studying abroad for more than 365 days". In fact, it means that there must be 365 days from the start date of the course to the first time to return to China before getting the diploma after the course, and the time to return to China during this period should be excluded.
If you return to China temporarily, it will inevitably affect your "365 days" illness and make many of your efforts in vain. Therefore, it is not difficult to understand why many international students choose to stay abroad because of the settlement problem after graduation, even if the epidemic is rampant.
Of course, in addition to the "365 days" prerequisite, international students want to settle in Beijing, but also need to meet many hard requirements.
