Classes will be taught in English. About 40-50 percent of the students will come from China.

It will be the school's second major international campus. Last year, NYU opened a school in Abu Dhabi in United Arab Emirates. It also has a dozen smaller programs in other countries.

/*New York University*/ has also embarked on an ambitious plan to expand its campus at home. The school plans grow its campus by 6 million square feet over the next two decades.
