For each semester, one airport pick-up, free of charge, is arranged by Global Education Center. The exact date will be on an annual basis, normally the weekend before the orientation week.

It is highly suggested that students attentively participate in the orientation, which consists of registration, regulation acknowledgement, campus tour, placement test and other related activities.

Health insurance

Students should ensure private health cover for the duration of their stay in China. It is strongly recommended that students in pursuit of a full-academic-year exchange buy a local insurance upon their arrival at ECNU, given that whereas any emergency arises in their long term of stay, it is more ideal a choice to make a local insurance claim.
