Document checklist and upload instructions

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

  • 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.

  • 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.

Jilin University CSC scholarship FAQ

What is Jilin University's CSC agency number?

Use agency number 10183 when selecting Jilin University in the CSC portal. Some third-party lists circulate 10559, but that code belongs to a different institution (Jinan University in Guangzhou), so double-check you have selected the right school before submitting. The correct number appears in JLU's official admission notices.

How competitive is a CSC place at Jilin University?

JLU does not publish the matched application and award totals needed for a university-specific CSC acceptance rate. Check the current chemistry, materials, vehicle-engineering, or other program requirements and any published review-round dates.

Does submitting early actually matter here?

Follow any priority-review date published in Jilin University's current notice. Meeting an earlier stated round can determine when the file is reviewed, but it does not create a published selection advantage beyond the process described by the university.

Does Jilin University accept CSC Type B applications?

Jilin 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 Jilin University fully funded?

A full Chinese Government Scholarship normally covers tuition, accommodation or a housing subsidy, medical insurance, and a monthly stipend.
