Based upon investigation into 605 Tibetan college students from 5 colleges in Tibet areas, and combined with network data, this paper mainly analyses their attitude towards Tibetan, Chinese and English from four dimensions: recognizing, instrumental, integrative and transferring attitude. This paper also discusses the relationship between students’ language attitude and their gender and grade.
