SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The U.S. Electronic Education Fair for China 
is a joint initiative between the U.S. Department of Commerce and the 
U.S. Department of State. The purpose of the initiative is to inform 
Chinese students who are interested in studying outside of China about 
the breadth and depth of the higher education opportunities available 
in the U.S. The initiative will have a three-pronged multimedia 
approach using television, the Internet and on-ground activities. Two, 
thirty minute TV programs will be produced in combination with a series 
of short, 3 minute programs, aired on local cable and national 
satellite TV stations throughout China all of which will drive viewers 
to the Internet landing page. DVDs distributed through education trade 
fairs and also through the 47 EducationUSA advisory centers throughout 
China will further this message.
    Accredited U.S. Institutions are invited to purchase space on the 
Internet Landing page in order to provide information about their 
schools. Informational space will be available at a Gold or Silver 
level. Institutions purchasing at the Gold level, priced at $8,000, 
will receive a banner-sized ad with their schools logo and name, which 
will link to their school Web site. Those who purchase at the Silver 
level, priced at $3,000, will have their name listed on the site with a 
link to their institution Web site.
