The CHEPD Undergraduate and Graduate Transfer Programs, organized and administrated by (Links open in new windows) CCIEE and AASCU, is a new form of international educational cooperation with two-way student and faculty exchanges between Chinese and American universities. CCIEE and AASCU select qualified public universities to participate in the program. A total of near100 universities have participated in this program by 2018. UNCP joined a coalition of five U.S. and 32 Chinese universities to offer undergraduate transfer program for Chinese students in March 2005.
