Application dates, fees and sources
For the 2026/2027 intake Anhui Agricultural University publishes two dated scholarship stages and one dated full-scholarship window, all in the two official 2026 guides posted on the College of International Education site (gjjy.ahau.edu.cn) on 2026-01-13. The 2026 International Students Application Guide states 'Deadline for Full Scholarships: May 30th' and 'Deadline for Partial Scholarships: June 20th'; because the guide is the 2026 intake guide these are the 2026/2027 intake dates (May 30, 2026 and June 20, 2026), and both are now CLOSED. The Chinese Government Scholarship — High-level Graduate Program guide for 2026 gives an exact application period of '8:00 a.m. on January 1, 2026 – 5:00 p.m. on March 1, 2026' (Category B, institutional code 10364); that window is CLOSED. The partial scholarships covered by the May 30 / June 20 cut-offs are the Anhui Provincial Government Scholarship and the Anhui Agricultural University Scholarship, and they share the guide's own dates rather than a separate provincial notice. The guide also states the admission-related application fee for admitted applicants is payable by September 1st, and that applicants for the undergraduate program must take the China Study Competency Assessment for Undergraduates (CSCA) before the application deadline, with the next assessment date given as March 15th. No departmental cut-off earlier than these is published, no separate self-funded window is given for the 2026/2027 intake, and no notice for the 2027/2028 intake exists yet, so no window for it can be stated.
For Anhui Agricultural University, refer to the current official admissions notice for opening and closing dates by program and intake. Dates from a previous intake should not be used as the next intake's deadline. Directory-wide opening checks were last completed September 14, 2026.
Fee note: Anhui Agricultural University charges an application fee of CNY 400. The 2026 International Students Application Guide states in its fees table 'Application Fee (Admitted applicants must pay the application fee by September 1st) — 400 CNY', and adds 'Applications without the application fee paid will not be accepted' and 'The application fee is non-refundable regardless of the admission outcome.' The 2026 CSC Scholarship High-level Graduate Program guide states the same figure separately: 'The application fee is 400 RMB.' This is the application fee and not tuition: the same table lists tuition separately as CNY 16,000/academic year for undergraduate programs, CNY 20,000 for Chinese-taught master's, CNY 25,000 for English-taught master's, CNY 24,000 for Chinese-taught doctoral and CNY 29,000 for English-taught doctoral programs, with accommodation at CNY 8,000 (single), CNY 4,500 (double) or CNY 2,000 (quadruple) per student per academic year and comprehensive medical insurance at CNY 800/year.

Upload notarized qualifications/transcripts, passport, an 800-character plan, two signed academic references, language evidence, six-month medical/blood and police records. Chinese study needs HSK 4; English accepts IELTS 5.5/TOEFL 69 with stated exemptions.

University background, academic strengths and sources
Traces its origin to the provincial Anhui University founded in Anqing in 1928, renamed National Anhui University in 1946 and moved to Wuhu in 1949. In 1954 it was split, creating Anhui Agricultural College, which then relocated from Wuhu to Hefei and took its present name in 1995. It holds 1 national key (cultivation) discipline, and hosts the State Key Laboratory of Tea Germplasm Innovation and Resource Utilization, the national laboratory behind its recognized strength in tea science. Fields listed on this profile include School of Forestry and Landscape Architecture, School of Tea and Food Science and Technology, School of Agronomy, School of Animal Science and Technology. For 2027-2028 CSC applications, check the current university notice for eligible programs, funding categories, deadlines and required application systems before preparing documents or paying a fee.
Anhui Agricultural University (AAU) in Hefei traces its origins to 1935 as the agriculture college of the original Anhui University, becoming independent in 1954 and taking its current name in 1995. It is a provincial key university with a clear national calling card: tea. Its laboratory currently uses the name State Key Laboratory of Tea Plant Germplasm Innovation and Resource Utilization.
That specialization matters for applicants. If your interests touch tea science, agronomy, plant protection, forestry, food science, or animal science, AAU offers relevant departments to research. English-taught options shift by intake, with many graduate programs Chinese-taught or supervised in English by individual arrangement, so confirm the language of instruction for your target program in writing.
CSC applications have used agency number 10364 alongside the university's own admissions process. The current application fee is not verified; an official 2023 guide listed RMB 400, but applicants should not carry that amount or any exemption claim into a new intake without a current notice. If a current program requests faculty contact, make the message specific to the relevant crops, pests, methods, or field systems.
Hefei is one of China's fastest-rising science cities, also home to USTC and a cluster of national laboratories, yet living costs stay in the affordable CNY 1,200-2,200 per month range excluding accommodation. The climate is humid subtropical with cold damp winters and hot summers, and high-speed rail puts Shanghai and Nanjing within easy reach. Verify current deadlines, program lists, and language requirements on AAU's international admissions pages before applying.

Official websiteAnhui Agricultural University CSC scholarship FAQ
What are my realistic CSC chances at Anhui Agricultural University?
AAU does not publish a CSC acceptance rate or comparable applicant totals. Applicants with agricultural, forestry, or life-science backgrounds should document fit with a current program and follow any supervisor requirement in fields such as tea science or crop research.
Do I need a supervisor's acceptance letter?
Use AAU’s named research-degree and scholarship notice for its supervisor-document requirements. In permitted research enquiries, describe the relevant crop, technique or field system and attach the requested materials. No published reply-rate or selection-weight data were verified.
Does Anhui Agricultural University accept CSC Type B applications?
Anhui Agricultural University appears in our directory based on prior CSC host or program evidence. For 2027-2028 Type B participation, consult the university's current international-admissions notice and confirm the application channel and Agency Number before applying.
Is the CSC scholarship at Anhui Agricultural University fully funded?
A full Chinese Government Scholarship normally covers tuition, accommodation or a housing subsidy, medical insurance, and a monthly stipend. That does not prove Anhui Agricultural University will offer a full Type B award in 2027-2028: some routes are partial or unavailable, so confirm the current notice and your final award letter.
What is the application deadline for Anhui Agricultural University?
The latest official information checked September 14, 2026 says: For the 2026/2027 intake Anhui Agricultural University publishes two dated scholarship stages and one dated full-scholarship window, all in the two official 2026 guides posted on the College of International Education site (gjjy.ahau.edu.cn) on 2026-01-13. The 2026 International Students Application Guide states 'Deadline for Full Scholarships: May 30th' and 'Deadline for Partial Scholarships: June 20th'; because the guide is the 2026 intake guide these are the 2026/2027 intake dates (May 30, 2026 and June 20, 2026), and both are now CLOSED. The Chinese Government Scholarship — High-level Graduate Program guide for 2026 gives an exact application period of '8:00 a.m. on January 1, 2026 – 5:00 p.m. on March 1, 2026' (Category B, institutional code 10364); that window is CLOSED. The partial scholarships covered by the May 30 / June 20 cut-offs are the Anhui Provincial Government Scholarship and the Anhui Agricultural University Scholarship, and they share the guide's own dates rather than a separate provincial notice. The guide also states the admission-related application fee for admitted applicants is payable by September 1st, and that applicants for the undergraduate program must take the China Study Competency Assessment for Undergraduates (CSCA) before the application deadline, with the next assessment date given as March 15th. No departmental cut-off earlier than these is published, no separate self-funded window is given for the 2026/2027 intake, and no notice for the 2027/2028 intake exists yet, so no window for it can be stated. Check the current notice for your degree, route, and intake before applying.
What can I study at Anhui Agricultural University on a CSC scholarship?
Fields listed for Anhui Agricultural University in Hefei, Anhui include School of Forestry and Landscape Architecture, School of Tea and Food Science and Technology, School of Agronomy, School of Animal Science and Technology. If its current CSC notice confirms your degree level and subject, use the official program catalogue to check the teaching language and identify a suitable supervisor.
Does Anhui Agricultural University charge an application fee?
Anhui Agricultural University charges an application fee of CNY 400. The 2026 International Students Application Guide states in its fees table 'Application Fee (Admitted applicants must pay the application fee by September 1st) — 400 CNY', and adds 'Applications without the application fee paid will not be accepted' and 'The application fee is non-refundable regardless of the admission outcome.' The 2026 CSC Scholarship High-level Graduate Program guide states the same figure separately: 'The application fee is 400 RMB.' This is the application fee and not tuition: the same table lists tuition separately as CNY 16,000/academic year for undergraduate programs, CNY 20,000 for Chinese-taught master's, CNY 25,000 for English-taught master's, CNY 24,000 for Chinese-taught doctoral and CNY 29,000 for English-taught doctoral programs, with accommodation at CNY 8,000 (single), CNY 4,500 (double) or CNY 2,000 (quadruple) per student per academic year and comprehensive medical insurance at CNY 800/year.
