Scholarship
The dated 2026–2027 High-Level Postgraduate call closed February 28, 2026. The undated CSC overview gives November–March for this programme and November–April for Silk Road, subject to the year's notice. Its Type A November–early-April period is indicative; the dispatching authority supplies the applicable dates.

The university's Chinese Government Scholarship notices list the national award standard as free tuition, free accommodation or an accommodation subsidy, a living allowance of 2,500 RMB per month for undergraduates, 3,000 RMB per month for master's and general advanced-study students, and 3,500 RMB per month for doctoral and senior advanced-study students, plus comprehensive medical insurance of 800 RMB per person per year.

The standing rules restrict the freshman award to new self-funded students studying for at least a year and the president's award to self-funded students from their second year studying for more than a year. HSK awards require one academic year at DJTU and use the first HSK result. A current award opening or deadline is not established by this undated page.

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

  • 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.

  • 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.
