Application dates, fees and sources

The official 2026 Admission Guide, posted April 21, 2026, does not state an application opening date, closing date or intake year. It says applicants must be at least 18 by the admission deadline but does not give that deadline. The admissions board rechecked October 8, 2026 listed the 2026 guide and a 2025 guide; no later intake notice was found there. The 2026 guide describes the email-then-online-system application process but does not set dates for the university or named scholarship routes. Do not treat the guide’s publication date as an application opening date or infer an autumn intake.

Level-specific plans, references and translations

The Chinese checklist requires a bachelor’s plan of at least 800 Chinese characters and a graduate plan of at least 1,000 characters; the English checklist says at least 800 words for bachelor’s and 1,000 words for master’s. Chinese requires two professor or associate-professor references for graduate applicants, while English labels that requirement for master’s applicants. Confirm the applicable doctoral checklist rather than treating the English omission as an exemption. Qualification and transcript translations must be notarized in Chinese or English. The physical form must be complete, with photograph, doctor’s signature and hospital stamp; this guide does not state a validity period for it or the police record. Under the 2026 accommodation section, admitted students are offered standard double-room campus housing.

Reference: 2026 guide, physical pages 8–9. Confirm the latest notice for the same course and route before applying.

Fee categories include application/signup, tuition, housing and other study costs; amounts, payment dates and refund calculations are not established by this regulation.

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.
