This is the latest published figure (2025 intake); PKU's 2026 notice says tuition will be announced later. Undergraduate teaching is in Chinese — strong Chinese is required (HSK level 6 with 210+ is one accepted route). The full year's tuition must be paid in RMB at registration, and students arrange their own accommodation. The Chinese Government Scholarship can cover tuition and housing — see Scholarships.
