Application dates, fees and sources

The recorded CUPL 2026 notices set May 15, 2026 Beijing time for self-funded bachelor's applications and April 30, 2026 Beijing time for self-funded graduate applications, both submitted by email to cisadmission@cupl.edu.cn. The recorded CSC High-Level Graduate Type B deadline was January 15, 2026 Beijing time, agency 10053; the Silk Road notice described a deadline generally in mid-May. Those named 2026 university application deadlines have passed. The Country Bilateral Type A route follows the applicant's dispatching authority and had no fixed university deadline in the record. The graduate record describes document review and a re-examination interview, with arrival in late August or early September 2026; registration is separate from application. The linked admission notice and college index could not be reopened on October 3, 2026. No 2027 application window, current fee or scholarship availability was confirmed by this limited recheck.

For CUPL, 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: The recorded 2026 CUPL guides listed CNY 660 per bachelor's application and CNY 800 per master's or doctoral application. The bachelor's checklist included the payment receipt; the graduate payment deadline was April 30, 2026. The recorded rules required RMB bank transfer, made the charge non-refundable after payment and returned foreign-currency remittances. Those source bodies could not be reopened on October 3, 2026, so these figures and payment rules are retained historical information, not confirmed 2027 charges. Recorded annual tuition was CNY 20,000 for bachelor's, CNY 29,000 for academic master's and CNY 33,000 for academic doctoral programmes, with CNY 800 annual medical insurance. Tuition and insurance are separate from the application charge.

Historical CSC High-Level Graduate online filing

The recorded 2026 High-Level Graduate notice requires online filing in the CSC Study in China system under Type B, agency 10053, by January 15, 2026 Beijing time. That round is closed. CUPL reviews applicants through the university scholarship route; the record does not establish a separate university application portal or an order for one. Use the new programme notice to confirm current documents, any fee and subsequent review stages. The separately recorded undergraduate and graduate email applications belong to self-funded admissions, not this CSC notice.

Reference: 2026 High-Level Graduate call, closed. Confirm the latest notice for the same course and route before applying.

Document checklist and upload instructions

Use the document list for your exact program. Prepare these common items, then add any scholarship-specific forms:

  • Identity: passport information page and photograph. Copy your name, birth date and passport number exactly into each application.
  • Education: diploma or official expected-graduation certificate, transcripts and any required degree authentication. Include the original language and certified translations where requested.
  • Language: the required HSK, IELTS, TOEFL or accepted alternative. A medium-of-instruction letter replaces a test only if the program allows it.
  • Academic materials: study plan or research proposal; graduate recommendation letters; supervisor or pre-admission letter when required. Some systems send referees a private submission link.
  • Additional requirements: CSCA results for applicable undergraduate routes; portfolio for relevant arts programs; medical form, police clearance, financial guarantee or guardian documents when listed. Check validity periods before arranging time-sensitive documents.

Scan each complete document clearly. Use the file type and size limit shown beside its upload field; combine multi-page documents only where the system permits. Open every uploaded file to check legibility, page order, signatures and stamps. Keep a copy of everything you submit.
