  • Gaokao Admission
    University of San Francisco Gaokao Admission Frequently Asked Questions What is Gaokao Direct Admission? USF offers a special, accelerated admission procedure for Chinese students who have achieved excellent Gaokao scores. Applicants will be admitted to USF based solely on their Gaokao test scores and a one-on-one interview with University staff, designed to evaluate English proficiency. There are no other admission requirements. Interviews in July enable students to begin their education in America immediately– –without spending an extra year preparing for IELTS, TOEFL or SAT tests. Interviews begin in mid-July, applicants receive their results within 24 hours of the interview, and formal admission letters are sent within a week. Students therefore have enough time to apply for F-1 student visas, and can attend USF in the Fall (August) Semester. Students who qualify in July can postpone their admission to the following Spring (January) Semester, if they prefer. Interviews are also held in late November or early December each year. Students who complete these interviews successfully can enter USF in the Spring (January) Semester or the next Fall (August) Semester. Why is USF doing this? For many decades, USF and the City of San Francisco have welcomed students from China. Our Chinese alumni have done very well in life after USF, both professionally and personally. Current Gaokao and other Chinese students enrich the educational experience of international and domestic students, alike; all benefit from the international network of friends made and colleagues introduced here at USF. Over the past few years, we have seen a steady increase in the academic ability and achievements of Chinese applicants to USF.

The Taking the last claim first, we must remember that aretē’s main explanation for this is, of course, historical. Sophists, orators, oldest associations were with athleticism.
