Application dates, fees and sources
Nantong University publishes dated application windows inside its own 2026 admission guide. The Admission Guide for International Applicants NTU 2026, posted on the School of International Education site (sie.ntu.edu.cn) on 2026-04-02 with the PDF dated 2026-04-01, states the application window as 申请时间：1月1日-6月30日 / Application Time: Jan 1st -- Jun 30th. That window is for the 2026 intake and has closed as of 2026-10-07; the guide gives no academic year label beyond the 2026 document year. The guide separately dates the Chinese Government Scholarship (中国政府奖学金) round as 申请时间：11月-次年3月, i.e. November to the following March, published as a full scholarship — for the 2026 round this ran to March 2026 and has closed. The Nantong University Scholarship (南通大学奖学金) is dated 申请时间：1月-6月 / Application Time: January - June, which also closed at the end of June 2026. The guide also requires that postgraduate applicants attend online or offline interviews organised by the academic schools after passing preliminary document review, and that qualified applicants pay fees as required by the provisional admission letter before receiving the Admission Notice and JW202 form. No 2027 intake notice and no new dated window exists on sie.ntu.edu.cn as of 2026-10-07: the site's news feed (queried through its own API) most recent items are 2026-04-24, 2026-02-16 and 2026-01-04, and the homepage window API points only to the application portal. The next window is therefore upcoming but undated.
For Nantong University, 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 October 9, 2026.
Fee note: Nantong University charges an application fee of CNY 600. Its Admission Guide for International Applicants NTU 2026 carries a fee table (section V. Fees) with a dedicated 申请费 / Application Fee column reading 600 for every degree level, and states beneath the table, in both languages: 'The application fee of 600 RMB is non-refundable once paid' and 备注：申请费600元人民币一经支付，一律不予退还. The fee is therefore stated to be non-refundable. The Chinese original wording (申请费600元人民币一经支付，一律不予退还) is the authoritative version and the English column is the guide's own translation.

- 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.
Application templatesHow to fill the university application
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.
