Tuition notes

unverified — no self-funded tuition table was found. The only per-level figures published by Yunnan Agricultural University are the scholarship valuations in the 2026/2027 Foreign Students Scholarship brochure: it values undergraduate tuition at CNY 6,000, master's at CNY 8,000 and doctoral at CNY 10,000 per person per year, and a scholarship covers either 100% (Category A) or 50% (Category B) of those amounts. These are the university's own scholarship valuation of tuition, not a published self-funded fee schedule, and no Chinese-language-programme or English-taught tuition rate is stated anywhere I could open.

Accommodation

CNY 1,200 per person per year — the single student-apartment rate used in the 2026/2027 Foreign Students Scholarship brochure, where Category A covers accommodation at this rate. A separate published accommodation tariff for self-funded students was not found.

Physical examination

unverified — the Foreigner Physical Examination Record is a required application document in every YAU notice, but no charge for it is published by the university.

Entry requirements

Language: HSK Level 4, score 180 or above. The Chinese Government Scholarship notice adds that an HSK4 result is valid for two years. Bachelor's applicants must submit a HSK4 certificate at 180 or above; applicants for the university's own scholarship are told 'in principle' to hold at least HSK Level 4 (HSK四级180分及以上).. Age: Undergraduate applicants under 25; master's applicants under 35; doctoral applicants under 40 (2026/2027 Foreign Students Scholarship brochure, section 三(五)). The bachelor's prospectus repeats under 25 for undergraduates and the CSC notice repeats under 35 / under 40 for master's and doctoral.. Required degree: Undergraduate: high-school graduation or equivalent. Master's: a bachelor's degree or equivalent. Doctoral: a master's degree or equivalent. The CSC notice for 2026/2027 is open to master's and doctoral applicants only.. Financial guarantee: Applicants must submit 'proof of personal financial capacity or economic guarantee' (个人经济能力证明或经济担保证明); if a third party provides the guarantee, proof of the relationship and supporting documents are required. No minimum amount is stated in any YAU notice.
