Enrollments of minor languages are controlled to be around 20 students for each language, and the admission scoreline in the interview very correspondingly.

Foreign Languages

Language courses in CDFLS are smaller in class size than other courses, with only 20-30 students; small-size classrooms are also specially designed for such a class model.
