Published dates and unconfirmed windows

Application timing and source scope

CDUT's 2026 degree windows are closed: CSC High-Level Postgraduate applications ended March 1, 2026, with pre-admission upload by March 15; self-funded undergraduate and postgraduate applications ended June 15, 2026. No 2027 degree-intake notice was verified. The separate 2026 China Link short-term research call, published January 21, 2026, states year-round applications with study starting by August 31, 2027. This is non-degree study for full-time students or staff at CSC overseas partner universities, not an autumn degree deadline. Apply through both CSC and CDUT. Its eligibility section requires admission or invitation before application, while the checklist calls that document optional; confirm the contradiction with CDUT. This call was recovered from indexed official text on October 2, 2026; the live college page was inaccessible during rechecking, so current portal availability was not confirmed. Provincial and municipal awards follow separate notices; no current new-applicant deadline was verified.

Read the university's procedure
  1. 1

    Choose your program and intake

    Check Chengdu University of Technology's current prospectus for your degree, teaching language, eligibility and deadline. Arrange supervisor contact or pre-admission first when the program requires it.

    Read official admission instructions
  2. 2

    Prepare your documents

    Use the checklist below, then compare it with your program's required documents. Prepare any signed forms, translations and referee submissions before starting the final application.

  3. 3

    Follow the portal order in the Type B notice

    If it asks for the CSC form in the university system, finish CSC first and upload that form. If it asks for university admission or recommendation first, complete that stage before CSC. Where both systems are required, submit to both; use a CSC-only process only when the official notice explicitly specifies it.

    Read official admission instructions
  4. 4

    Complete the required application systems

    Use the university and CSC instructions below in the order specified by your program. Keep names, degree, major and teaching language consistent across the forms. Check submission status in every required system.

    Open the program's university portal
  5. 5

    Track decisions and respond to requests

    Check your portal and email for missing-document requests, interviews and results. If a form is returned, correct it and resubmit. Keep admission and scholarship decisions separate; follow the final offer for acceptance, registration and original-document checks.

Document checklist and upload instructions

Use the document list for your exact program. Prepare these common items, then add any scholarship-specific forms:

  • Identity: passport information page and photograph. Copy your name, birth date and passport number exactly into each application.
  • Education: diploma or official expected-graduation certificate, transcripts and any required degree authentication. Include the original language and certified translations where requested.
  • Language: the required HSK, IELTS, TOEFL or accepted alternative. A medium-of-instruction letter replaces a test only if the program allows it.
  • Academic materials: study plan or research proposal; graduate recommendation letters; supervisor or pre-admission letter when required. Some systems send referees a private submission link.
  • 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.
