This is a decision made by Ministry of Education, Ministry of Public Security and Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

As China is expanding its exchanges with international community, said a person in Ministry of Education, more and more students on campus would like to go abroad for taking part in activities of international exchanges. This will play a proactive role for China to foster talents and enhance China's reputation in educational field.

In order to meet new trends after China's reform and opening up, also for further promoting educational exchanges with other countries, a streamline administration system must be implemented.

Students holding private passports can apply to the relevant foreign embassies or consulates in China for visas by themselves or by their schools.
