China’s National College Entrance Examination (NCEE), or gaokao, is the admission test that all final-year school students in the country must take if they wish to win a place in a Chinese university.
Many international universities now accept the gaokao as part of a student’s application form. If you have taken the gao kao and are considering studying abroad, then here is a list of all the universities in the US accepting the gao kao.
It is important to check all the entry requirements with your university, as most of the universities will also require additional tests such as English language tests and other high school certificates.
