Dis school prolly ok cause you gots to sine a contrac and all dat kinda cruds so dat part all good. As far as medical cruds go I ain't even know cause some peeps say to get all that crazy shiz dun befo you leave and some mugs say get it when you gets to China cause they dont care bout no modern tests from the US and think their old ass crummy tests are better.

Do you mean the results of a medical exam?

You will have to take a medical exam when you arrive, non mainland medical exams are not accepted as substitutes for those done in country.

This sound more like a school requirement than a visa requirement.

Some Chinese consulate and Embassy personnel are saying a medical exam is a prior requirement, but the vast majority are not saying this.

Check with the closest consulate or Embassy and see what they say.

You school sound either misinformed or extra cautious.

Best of luck.

I have had two schools require the medical test paperwork from the embassy website sent to them prior the invitation letter.

I would assume it needs to be done in your home country since the form requires the doctors signature.

Maybe i just look unhealthy, if the other poster is correct, that its just a school "thing"...
