Published dates and unconfirmed windows

Application timing and source scope

Beijing Sport University's 2026/2027 notices, both published on its international student admissions portal on November 29, 2025, give several dated stages. For the Chinese Government Scholarship "High-level Postgraduate" Program (master's and doctoral, CSC Type B), applicants had to submit through the BSU foreign affairs system at ims.bsu.edu.cn before March 1, 2026, after which the university reviewed materials, interviewed, issued pre-admission notices and forwarded its recommendation list to the China Scholarship Council; that deadline has now closed. For self-funded international students the 2026 prospectus sets a Spring intake (March 2026 entry) application window of December 1, 2025 to January 27, 2026, open to non-degree students only, and a Fall intake (September 2026 entry) window of December 1, 2025 to June 1, 2026, both now closed. The published admissions workflow ran document review from December 2025 to June 2026, online video interviews by arrangement, decisions in late June 2026, results in late June to early July 2026, and admission letters posted in mid-July 2026. The BSU Belt and Road Sports Talent Scholarship is applied for together with the programme application, so it shares the same windows. A 2027/2028 international admission schedule was not established in the recorded source review; newer domestic 2027 notices do not establish incoming international dates.
