On December 22, 2023, the 78th session of the United Nations General Assembly adopted a resolution by consensus to designate the "Lunar New Year" as a United Nations holiday, and the "Year of China" officially became the "World Year". The unique charm of Chinese culture is accelerating the people-to-people exchanges and interactions between China and the United States. The ELITE J1 visa program founded by Mr. Zhang Wei allows the high-end academic path of visiting scholars to no longer be exclusive to elites such as doctors, professors, and scholars, and ordinary people also have the opportunity to study in the United States. Mr. Zhang Weiyong is not only a pioneer of the American study visitor application service industry, but also a practitioner of American visiting scholars. The ELITE J1 visa program supports young and middle-aged people to study in the United States, where spouses can legally work in the United States to earn money, and their children can attend public schools for free, so that families who dream of studying in the United States or accompanying them are no longer only a traditional definition of studying in the United States.
Mr. Zhang Weiyong has served as a special guest for many times to explain the knowledge of studying abroad in the United States on the study abroad channel of the TV station, and has been interviewed by many domestic mainstream ** such as **People's Radio, People**, China Youth Daily, Tencent, Sina, NetEase and so on. He said, "The needs of young and middle-aged people are diverse, especially in the state of dragging their families, there are many issues to consider. Now that information is developed, there are many ways to go to the United States. I founded the ELITE J1 Visa Program for Visiting Students in the United States with the intention of promoting myself and others. I myself am a beneficiary of a study visit to the United States, and my career has always focused on China-US educational and people-to-people exchanges. I am willing to support more friends to study in the United States, open up their international horizons, and contribute to the cause of Sino-US exchanges while improving themselves and creating value, so as to promote people-to-people friendship!
