The university fee.
The application fee is charged directly by the universities. It generally falls between $100 and $200 USD per university, depending on the institution and program, and covers the university's processing work.
Premium Pathways collects application fees on behalf of universities under formal agreements. Chinese universities mainly accept payment in RMB, so we handle the foreign-exchange conversion for you.
