Application dates, fees and sources
Xinjiang University's dated 2026 self-financed degree and CSC application windows described below have closed. Its separate March 2027 International Chinese Language Teachers Scholarship route has a 31 October 2026 cutoff. Self-financed applicants had an online application window of 1 March 2026 to 15 May 2026 (网上申请：2026年3月1日-2026年5月15日) with qualification review running alongside it, degrees enrolling only in September (秋季学期：9月1日-30日入学, 学历生只在9月入学). The Chinese Government Scholarship High Level Postgraduate Programme 2026 closed for online applications on 8 February 2026, with college interviews 9 February to 15 March 2026 and recommended candidates reported 16-31 March 2026; the parallel Chinese Government Scholarship Provincial and Ministerial Co-construction Programme 2026 carried the identical 8 February 2026 deadline and interview schedule. The Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region People's Government Scholarship for students from neighbouring countries 2026 closed on 31 May 2026, with interviews 1-15 June 2026. The International Chinese Language Teachers Scholarship had a 15 May 2026 deadline for September 2026 entry and a 31 October 2026 deadline for March 2027 entry — the only window in this list still open as at 17 September 2026, though it is set by the Centre for Language Education and Cooperation and the notice says the centre's finally published date governs. That March 2027 deadline was independently re-confirmed on 23 September 2026 and again on 24 September 2026 against the university's own 新疆大学国际中文教师奖学金招生简章（2026年） at https://gjjl.xju.edu.cn/info/1015/2558.htm, which states 2027年3月入学：截止日期为10月31日（以语合中心最终公布日期为准） and publishes the award's coverage as 学费、住宿费（免费双人间）、生活费（四周研修生除外）和综合医疗保险费, with the application route opening on chinese.cn from 1 March 2026 and the one-semester visiting-student track running at HSK Level 3 (180) plus an HSKK score. The official 2026 measures issued by the Centre for Language Education and Cooperation set the same 31 October 2026 student deadline for March 2027 entry, with recommending and host institutions reviewing by 10 November 2026. This is a scholarship deadline, not an admission deadline, and it does not by itself show that any self-financed degree intake is open. For self-financed students a new window for the 2027 intake has not been published; the most recent self-financed notice is the 2026 brochure, so the recurring pattern is an application window opening in early March and closing in mid-May. The International Chinese Language Teachers Scholarship one-semester March 2027 route is open through 31 October 2026; earlier 2026 rounds are closed. Keep this date scoped to that award, not general admission or CSC.
Xinjiang University's application window above was checked against its official admission notice (last check October 2, 2026). Windows can close early when seats fill: confirm on the official portal before relying on a date.

University background, academic strengths and sources
Traces its lineage to the 1924 Xinjiang Russian Law and Politics Specialized School, became Xinjiang College in 1935, and was formally established as Xinjiang University in 1960, later merging with Xinjiang Institute of Technology in 2000. It holds Double First-Class status but was one of 15 universities placed on a Ministry of Education warning list in February 2022, requiring rectification ahead of a 2024 reassessment. Fields listed on this profile include College of Ecology and Environment, School of Information Science and Engineering, College of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering, School of Resources and Environmental Science. For 2027-2028 CSC applications, check the current university notice for eligible programs, funding categories, deadlines and required application systems before preparing documents or paying a fee.
Xinjiang University is the main comprehensive research university in Xinjiang and a national Double First-Class institution. Its location in Urumqi makes it unusually relevant for applicants working on Central Asia, regional development, arid-land ecology, energy, languages, and cross-border cooperation. It is not a substitute for a coastal university if your priority is a highly internationalized city, but it offers a distinctive academic and regional setting that few other CSC hosts can match.
The scholarship route is clearly documented. For the 2026 Chinese Government Scholarship High-Level Postgraduate Program, applicants used Type B and agency number 10755, submitted in both CGSIS and Xinjiang University's own international student system, and completed the university application by 8 February 2026. The official notice also told postgraduate applicants to contact a supervisor and obtain a pre-admission consent letter. The award covered tuition, accommodation, comprehensive medical insurance, and the standard monthly living allowance. It also listed a registration-fee exemption, but did not separately confirm whether the application portal charges a submission fee.
The English-medium offer is more concrete than many applicants assume. The 2026 notice listed English-taught master's programs in Computer Science and Technology, Mechanical Engineering, Chemical Engineering and Technology, and Pharmacy, with doctoral options also including Mathematics and Chemistry. That makes Xinjiang University a plausible strategic choice for technical applicants who want a fully funded route and can explain why the university's regional or disciplinary setting fits their research. A research proposal can connect a specific supervisor, project and reason for choosing Urumqi.

City snapshot
- Climate:

- Student life:
- The campus offers a distinct Central Asian and western China setting. Applicants should expect a more Chinese-speaking daily environment than at the most internationalized coastal universities.

Official websiteXinjiang University CSC scholarship FAQ
What is Xinjiang University's CSC agency number?
The official 2026 High-Level Postgraduate notice gives agency number 10755 and instructs applicants to select program category Type B in CGSIS. Confirm it again in the current intake notice before submission.
Does Xinjiang University offer English-taught CSC programs?
Yes. Its official 2026 notice listed several English-medium master's and doctoral programs, including Computer Science and Technology, Mechanical Engineering, and Chemical Engineering and Technology. Check the new program table because the list can change each year.
Do I need a supervisor before applying to Xinjiang University?
For the official 2026 postgraduate route, applicants were told to review supervisor information, contact a suitable supervisor, and obtain a pre-admission consent letter. Treat this as an early application task rather than waiting until the deadline.
Does Xinjiang University accept CSC Type B applications?
Xinjiang 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 Xinjiang University fully funded?
A full Chinese Government Scholarship normally covers tuition, accommodation or a housing subsidy, medical insurance, and a monthly stipend. That does not prove Xinjiang University will offer a full Type B award in 2027-2028: some routes are partial or unavailable, so confirm the current notice and your final award letter.
What is the application deadline for Xinjiang University?
The latest official information checked October 2, 2026 says: Xinjiang University's dated 2026 self-financed degree and CSC application windows described below have closed. Its separate March 2027 International Chinese Language Teachers Scholarship route has a 31 October 2026 cutoff. Self-financed applicants had an online application window of 1 March 2026 to 15 May 2026 (网上申请：2026年3月1日-2026年5月15日) with qualification review running alongside it, degrees enrolling only in September (秋季学期：9月1日-30日入学, 学历生只在9月入学). The Chinese Government Scholarship High Level Postgraduate Programme 2026 closed for online applications on 8 February 2026, with college interviews 9 February to 15 March 2026 and recommended candidates reported 16-31 March 2026; the parallel Chinese Government Scholarship Provincial and Ministerial Co-construction Programme 2026 carried the identical 8 February 2026 deadline and interview schedule. The Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region People's Government Scholarship for students from neighbouring countries 2026 closed on 31 May 2026, with interviews 1-15 June 2026. The International Chinese Language Teachers Scholarship had a 15 May 2026 deadline for September 2026 entry and a 31 October 2026 deadline for March 2027 entry — the only window in this list still open as at 17 September 2026, though it is set by the Centre for Language Education and Cooperation and the notice says the centre's finally published date governs. That March 2027 deadline was independently re-confirmed on 23 September 2026 and again on 24 September 2026 against the university's own 新疆大学国际中文教师奖学金招生简章（2026年） at https://gjjl.xju.edu.cn/info/1015/2558.htm, which states 2027年3月入学：截止日期为10月31日（以语合中心最终公布日期为准） and publishes the award's coverage as 学费、住宿费（免费双人间）、生活费（四周研修生除外）和综合医疗保险费, with the application route opening on chinese.cn from 1 March 2026 and the one-semester visiting-student track running at HSK Level 3 (180) plus an HSKK score. The official 2026 measures issued by the Centre for Language Education and Cooperation set the same 31 October 2026 student deadline for March 2027 entry, with recommending and host institutions reviewing by 10 November 2026. This is a scholarship deadline, not an admission deadline, and it does not by itself show that any self-financed degree intake is open. For self-financed students a new window for the 2027 intake has not been published; the most recent self-financed notice is the 2026 brochure, so the recurring pattern is an application window opening in early March and closing in mid-May. The International Chinese Language Teachers Scholarship one-semester March 2027 route is open through 31 October 2026; earlier 2026 rounds are closed. Keep this date scoped to that award, not general admission or CSC. Check the current notice for your degree, route, and intake before applying.
What can I study at Xinjiang University on a CSC scholarship?
Fields listed for Xinjiang University in Urumqi, Xinjiang include College of Ecology and Environment, School of Information Science and Engineering, College of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering, School of Resources and Environmental Science.

Does Xinjiang University charge an application fee?
The 2026 self-funded brochure lists a CNY 400 registration fee per occasion (注册费400元人民币/次), without stating payment timing. It does not establish an application-submission fee. Separate 2026 scholarships exempt award holders from registration and other covered charges; those awards do not establish that every scholarship applicant is application-fee exempt.
