Every year, more than 9 million students compete for a spot in Chinese universities. The National Higher Education Entrance Exam, known as “gaokao,” is notoriously difficult.
Established by USCET in 2015, this scholarship is awarded to four high school students in Binchuan County, Yunnan. These studious recipients have achieved first and second places in gaokao’s science and humanities sections. The first scholarship in the series honors Lee’s late father, Mr. Lee Peiyan, while the second scholarship was established to honor her late mother, Ms. Yang Menglian.
