Overall:

The source regarding the five year bachelor's degree is in Chinese, but as I can read it I can verify that the information is accurate. I am slightly skeptical about its reliability, but it can be proved by searching each individual universities' websites. Corachow (talk) 14:01, 6 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
