Paid, fixed-scope application help
Chinese Government Scholarship (CSC) application support
CSC Path provides paid, fixed-scope help with university shortlisting, supervisor research, outreach drafts and follow-ups, document checks, and CSC and university portal steps. Your written scope states what is included, the response window, and any revision or follow-up limits. You approve the application information and messages before they are submitted or sent.
One honest note: no one can guarantee selection, and the CSC scholarship itself is always free to apply for on the official portal. Our fee covers consulting time and expertise only.
Single services from $50. Full application package $1,000. Pay in two halves, only after you agree the written scope.
Not sure yet? Start with the free 15-minute assessment.
Message us your degree, GPA, and field. We'll tell you honestly which route fits (Type A, Type B, provincial, or self-funded), name 2-3 realistic universities for your profile, and tell you whether paying for help is even worth it in your case. No sales pressure, and no payment before written scope.

Frequently asked questions
How do I pay?
After a short chat to confirm scope, we send a secure payment link. Card checkout directly on the site is coming soon. Installments are available: 50% to start, 50% before submission. Nothing is ever paid before scope is agreed in writing. The CSC application itself is always free on the official portal.
What exactly is included in the Full CSC Application Package?
The $1,000 package supports multiple scholarship and funding routes where allowed, plus university and professor shortlisting, professor outreach through a defined response window, study-plan support, full document preparation and checking, CSC/CGSIS and university portal support, and result-check follow-up as agreed. The fee covers personal consulting time: the scholarship itself is always free.
What's the difference between the CSC Package and the Self-Funded Direct Admission Package?
The $1,000 CSC Package supports funding-route applications (where applicable) and scholarship paperwork. The $700 Self-Funded Direct Admission Package focuses on a single paid-tuition university application end-to-end: university choice, portal application, documents, translations, ISO follow-up, and the visa checklist.
Can I buy just one service?
Yes. You can pick any single individual service from $50 if you only need help with one part of your application. The Full Package is there if you'd rather have everything handled end to end.
Do you guarantee an acceptance letter or scholarship?
No one can guarantee selection: decisions rest with universities, route-specific committees, and scholarship review panels. We carry out the outreach and deliverables defined in your written scope. Paid support does not guarantee a professor reply, acceptance letter, or scholarship. Be very cautious of anyone who claims they can guarantee selection.
What is the timeline? When should I start?
Portal openings and deadlines differ by route and intake year. As a practical starting point, begin 6–12 weeks before your earliest target deadline, then refine after checking each official university and CSC notice. Professor response timing varies by professor and season, so begin outreach early rather than waiting until deadlines are imminent.
What happens in the free 15-minute assessment?
You tell us your degree, GPA, field, and target level on WhatsApp. We compare published options (Type A, Type B, provincial, or self-funded), name two or three realistic universities for your profile, and tell you whether paying for help is even worth it in your case. No sales pressure: many students leave with a plan and do everything themselves using the free guide.
Is this affiliated with the CSC or a university?
No. This is fully independent consulting. We are not affiliated with, endorsed by, or connected to the China Scholarship Council, any university, or any government body.
