Application timing and source scope
Full timing notes and historical dates
Official-source recheck October 5, 2026: the international-college notice index currently lists one international-student admission guide posted April 20, 2026, but its linked guide is dated 2022. The guide's recurring instruction to send materials to a prospective supervisor before April 30 of the year of entry is historical standing guidance, not a newly announced 2026/27 or 2027/28 cutoff. The guide lists self-funded and university/provincial scholarship routes but does not establish separate current-cycle opening or closing dates for them. The attachment timed out when opened in this review, so route-specific date detail could not be rechecked. No 2027/28 call or open status was verified. Do not publish April 30, 2027 as an announced date.
Guide scope reviewed 3 October 2026. Dates apply only to the intake and route named in each notice.

The PDF is explicitly a 2022 guide despite its April 2026 repost. Contact the prospective supervisor and send materials by email and post before April 30 of the entry year. The source requires one electronic and two paper sets. The supervisor and international office check complete applications and assess academic/research suitability; the college decides admission. This historical recurring rule is not a confirmed April 30, 2027 deadline. The reviewed admissions index lists this repost and an older 2018 notice, without establishing a new international 2027 call. Contact: international@henau.edu.cn, +86-371-56552719.

Read the university's procedureHistorical eligibility, programme and language rules
The historical guide requires the preceding qualification for each degree, normally age 18 by September 1 of entry with extra minor documents. Master’s study is three years, maximum five; doctoral four, maximum eight. Its listed graduate study is English-taught except TCSOL; bachelor’s language is not assigned English. Chinese proficiency is level 4 of 《国际汉语能力标准》 in Chinese, translated as HSK 4. English is TOEFL ≥72/IELTS ≥5.5, with native/official-English exemption in Chinese but native-only wording in English. Confirm these differences for a new intake.

Send one electronic and two paper sets: Chinese/English CV and university form, passport, highest qualification/transcripts, language evidence, two professor/associate-professor recommendations, medical and blood records, police clearance, financial guarantee and the applicable minor-guardian authorization. Use originals or notarized copies where specified and notarized Chinese/English translations for other-language qualification/transcript/police records. Students may provide study-status proof; employed applicants add employment proof. The Chinese plan requirements are bachelor’s at least 400字, master’s 600字以上, doctoral research plan 800字以上; English says at least 400/600/800 words. Confirm the unit conflict rather than treating words and Chinese characters as equivalent.

Read the university's procedureHistorical admission and registration
The supervisor reports a decision to the college, which makes the final admission decision. International Education prepares admission and visa materials; International Exchange and Cooperation posts them. Follow the individual admission date and report visa/arrival details to the supervisor before travel. At registration, bring passport, admission notice and four two-inch blue-background photos; the college handles accommodation and subsequent medical/visa arrangements. Notify the supervisor of delay or withdrawal; unexplained non-registration is treated as waiving admission. Written real-name appeals receive a reply within 15 days, with another 15 days possible for complex cases. These are historical rules.

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.

Follow the submission method in your programme's notice. The steps below apply when it requires an online form; email and paper applications follow their separate source-linked instructions above.

- Choose the correct entry year, degree, teaching language and program. Read its requirements before selecting your funding option.
- Enter personal information as it appears in your passport. List education and employment dates accurately, and enter a reliable email address.
- Complete the study plan and referee fields. Upload each document to its matching slot; enter a CSC application number only if your route asks for one.

Costs and scholarship coverage
Application fees are separate from tuition and everyday expenses. Use the same degree, program and accommodation type when comparing universities.
Fee source notes: Henan Agricultural University's official International Cooperation Office page links an international-student prospectus whose available PDF is dated November 2023 and lists a CNY 400 application fee for degree students. The official page does not expose a newer dated international-student fee guide in the accessible material reviewed. The university-branded admissions.cn listing, which is not hosted on a university domain, has conflicting fee content: its expense page says CNY 400, while its application-procedure page says CNY 800 including registration and management fees. These third-party entries do not resolve the current official amount or the precise stage. Keep the current application-fee status and amount unknown until an accessible, current university-issued schedule is available. Separate tuition, accommodation, insurance, medical and registration charges from application fees.
