- Application fee
- The historical 2024–2025 Guangxi Government ASEAN call waived registration, tuition and campus accommodation, provided monthly living allowance and comprehensive medical insurance, and left visa/residence, medical-examination, international-travel, utility and internet costs to students. This is a dated award benefit, not confirmation that general applications are fee-free.
- Language requirement
- The 2024–2025 Guangxi Government ASEAN call required ASEAN nationality, health, friendship towards China and no concurrent Chinese government scholarship. Bachelor's applicants needed good high-school results and HSK 4 (180+); master's applicants needed a bachelor's qualification and HSK 4 (180+). Language/bachelor's applicants were no older than 25 by August 31, 2024, and master's applicants generally no older than 35 by that date. These are historical award-specific criteria.
- Scholarship
- Official measures published June 2, 2020, effective May 2020, govern annual review of the university International Student Special Scholarship and Guangxi Government ASEAN scholarship. They concern enrolled recipients and continuation/adjustment of awards; the special measure also allows enrolled students not previously funded to apply in that review. These historical rules do not establish a current incoming award call or funding amount.
