An undergraduate student from Mainland China who is paying full fees at a Western university for a Bachelor of Commerce equivalent degree. This class of student is an increasingly attractive "cash cow" for universities facing budget cut-backs.
Chinese business students stream themselves into either quantitative subjects e.g. financial management or soft, qualitative offerings e.g. general management. Since they have been admitted more by their ability to pay inflated "full cost" fees than their academic abilities, their ability to speak and write technical English is often poor meaning that they struggle to pass, do not contribute, unreflectively and uncritically rote learn, plagiarize and cluster together in class and socially.
Many are only-child, spoilt "little emperors" who possess immature social skills that are more expected of very young teenagers than adults.

Anyone who is a member of a university business program as either a student or member of faculty will recognize the Chinese business student demographic.

Get the Chinese business student mug.Prep school girls who get schlepped in every day instead of boarding. Hot, but... (see DSG and Pulling a Ratner). They are a living refutation of Descartes' argument for the existence of god.

Get the chirpy college student mug.Someone who no one understands and is most likely pressured into getting good grades by their parents, people make fun of them and know they can’t go to many parties or social events because they will be studying. They think no one will ever want them and that they are just the lonely nerd. Some people think it’s okay to take their answers because they are friends. Straight a students it in so much hard work that no one sees and are going to be the people that do something meaningful with their lives. Keep working hard, it will all be worth it ❤️.
Straight “A” student: sorry I can’t go to your party tonight midterms are next week!
Any other student: pfft, ok nerd, we literally have another week before we need to start studying!
