Degree direct admission

Apply to YUFE’s Overseas Education School with the university application form, medical form, qualifications/transcripts, study plan, passport, language evidence, police record, photo, financial proof and applicable guardian documents. Graduate applicants also need two academic references. The standing brochure says degree applications before May 20 each year; scholarship dates and documents are governed by separate CSC/provincial notices. It supplies no definite portal, payment timing or interview sequence. Do not turn the recurring date into a verified 2027 window. The Dayi scholarship is for enrolled international students and may be sought only after admission under its annual notice.

Reference: Standing admission brochure published September 25, 2024. Confirm the latest notice for the same course and route before applying.

  • 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.
