In line with our own unique institutional identity, we also place a very high value on qualities such as perseverance, global-mindedness, entrepreneurialism and desire to make an impact. The Duke Kunshan Admissions team takes a holistic approach when reviewing applications. This means that all application requirements are taken into consideration, ensuring the most suitable candidates are admitted on the strength of their application as a whole.
