Application dates, fees and sources
For the 2026/2027 intake Zhejiang University of Science and Technology published its dated stages in the official 2026-2027 Scholarship Application Guideline (dated 17 March 2026) and in its CSC notice. The Zhejiang Provincial Government Scholarship and the ZUST Outstanding Freshman Scholarship both ran from 18 January 2026 to 30 May 2026. The CSC High-Level Graduate Program for September 2026 entry closed on 10 March 2026. The university's own Individual Scholarship closed at 16:30 on 1 July 2026. The degree-program guides for 2026 (undergraduate and graduate) publish rolling admission with no fixed closing date and direct applicants to the online system at isam.zust.edu.cn; the 2026 Spring non-degree intake is advertised separately. All of these 2026 dates have now passed and no 2027 guideline is published yet, so the next cycle is an approximation.
For ZUST, 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 September 14, 2026.
Fee note: The 2026 ZUST Application Guides for international students (undergraduate and graduate editions) both state: "Application fee CNY 400 (it is not refundable whether you are enrolled or not)" — Chinese text 报名费 400 元（无论录取与否，不予退还）. The undergraduate guide also lists the application fee payment voucher (CNY 400) among the required application documents. The same guides list a separate Seat fee of CNY 3000 for degree programs, but that is expressly "pre-paid tuition" and is therefore recorded as tuition, not as the application fee. Only the CNY 400 application fee is entered in feeAmount.
