For international exchange students who are unfamiliar with Xiamen or China lifestyle, moving to Xiamen can be a daunting experience. That's why we offer the Buddy program, which pairs new international students with current students who provide the friendly face, helping hand, and first friendship that can make a world of difference for new arrivals. Buddies can also offer linguistic support, cultural guidance and information about life at Xiamen University. The Buddy Program has helped international students settle into Xiada and China. Typical "buddy" activities might include showing international students around campus, locating banks and grocery stores near the University, helping with an apartment search, or chatting over a cup of coffee.
A Buddy Mentor will be assigned to all incoming International Exchange Students. Your Buddy Mentor will be happy to provide linguistic support, cultural guidance and information about life at Xiamen to you.
If you're a new international student and would like help settling into Xiamen, feel free to request a buddy, please fill the “Request A Buddy” Form and submit the form to
