By the end of 2004, China had 2,236 colleges and universities, with over 20 million students enrolled.[1] More than 6 million Chinese students graduated from university in 2008.[2] The "Project 211" for creating 100 universities began in the mid-1990s,has merged more than 700 institutions of higher learning into about 300 universities.
