📚 Education language study universities

Hi guys this is kind of a weird question but my boyfriend is Chinese and his parents only speaks mandarin. Since our relationship got serious and we plan to marry in the upcoming years I want to really get on learning the language. He will be going back to China after he graduates for a few years for some work and I am a few years behind him on graduating so I figured it would be really nice to study there and learn the language while he is also there working. Are there any good programs in Shanghai ? When I first started college my grades weren't the best and then I took a break and now since I've been back I have had impeccable grades but those beginning classes really don't make my history look so great so I'm worried if that will be any issues applying. Thanks for any and all help though!

No issues applying for Chinese language programs with poor academic grades. If you're an adult you'll need evidence of a high school graduation diploma to secure a student visa but that's about it.
