Qingdao University publishes a cutoff for the spring 2027 non-degree Chinese-language route; its current opening is unconfirmed: the Qingdao University 2027 Spring Semester Chinese Language Program Information Sheet (青岛大学 2027 年春季学期外国留学生语言生招生简章), published on the university site dated 16 September 2026, states the application duration as 'Before Dec.11, 2026 / 2026年12月11日之前', with the semester running March to July 2027 and marked 待定 (to be confirmed), and registration expected in March 2027. This is a non-degree Chinese-language programme and no scholarship is attached to it — the information sheet directs scholarship applicants to the separate scholarship notes instead. All 2026 degree windows have closed: the 2026 graduate prospectus (青岛大学2026年外国留学生研究生招生简章, PDF path dated 14 May 2026) set self-funded graduate application to before 15 May 2026, with the new academic year expected to start in early September 2026; the 2026 undergraduate prospectus set application to before 31 May 2026; the 2026 CSC Type B High Level Postgraduate Program required the QDU online application before 1 February 2026 and CSC portal filing before 10 March 2026; the 2026 CSC Silk Road Program (Type B) ran 1 May 2026 to 25 May 2026 on both the CSC website and the QDU system; the 2026 Presidential Scholarship deadline was 20 April 2026 with results normally announced at the end of June. No notice for a 2027 autumn degree intake had been published as of 28 September 2026, and the university's scholarship pages still carried 2026 guides. A separate 2026 International Chinese Language Teachers Scholarship notice read on 3 October 2026 explicitly offers March 2027 one-semester entry, with student applications closing 31 October 2026. The notice separately prints March 1–May 15, 2026 and the March 2027 cutoff, without independently stating this spring track’s opening date. Applicants first apply on chinese.cn, follow emailed interview instructions, and register in QDU’s portal only after university pre-admission reaches scholarship evaluation. This award route does not use the self-funded language deadline or establish its CNY 400 fee; the scholarship notice body states no application-fee amount or payment terms.
Qingdao University's official calendar lists Dec 11, 2026 as the deadline for Chinese Language Program, 2027 spring semester (checked October 2, 2026). A deadline alone does not establish an open application window. Contact the admissions office for the opening date and eligible programs before submitting or paying.
Fee note: The application fee (申请费/报名费) at Qingdao University is CNY 400 for the recorded standard fee-paying programmes and CNY 800 for the MBBS programme. The 2026 International Graduate Students prospectus states 申请费：400 元人民币 / 'Application Fee: 400RMB', payable after the registration information is approved, when the university emails the payment account and the applicant uploads proof of payment; its fee table lists CNY 400 for both master's and doctoral applicants. The 2027 Spring Semester Chinese Language Program Information Sheet states 'Application fee: 400 RMB / 申请费：400 元' and adds 'Application fee cannot be refunded. / 申请费不予退还.' The 2026 undergraduate prospectus fee table gives CNY 400 for the standard undergraduate programme and CNY 800 for the English-taught MBBS programme. These fee-paying route statements do not establish an application fee for the March 2027 International Chinese Language Teachers Scholarship: its 2026 notice body states no amount or payment terms.
