Funding route on this profile

The profile includes CSC-related application guidance for Fujian Agriculture and Forestry University. Type B participation, eligible programs, and deadlines must be confirmed in the current university call.

Agency number recorded: 10389. Confirm it in the current Type B notice before submitting.

Application fee

CNY 500 or USD 80 The 2026 master’s and doctoral Apply to FAFU page states CNY 500 or USD 80 as an application fee, paid when the International College notifies applicants after eligibility review and academic assessment. Its linked Fees and Payments reference, published May 8, 2024, calls the same amount a first-semester registration fee and states it is non-refundable. The refund rule is attributed to that older reference. Annual tuition there is CNY 20,000 undergraduate, 21,000 master’s and 24,000 doctoral; annual room rates are CNY 10,800 single, 5,400 double and 2,700 four-person. These are separate charges. The earlier recorded 2023 brochure was not independently recovered here; this evidence does not establish a new 2027 fee or a scholarship application-fee exemption.

Linked CSC checklist with older cycle markers

FAFU links a separate generic CSC annex that retains 2025 cycle markers. It requires pre-admission evidence, a plan of at least 1,000 Chinese characters or more than 1,000 English words/characters, and a Chinese supervisor’s signature for doctoral plans.

Reference: Linked generic Type B annex retains September 2025 enrolment and 2025 passport markers. Confirm the latest notice for the same course and route before applying.

Read the university's procedure
  1. 1

    Choose your program and intake

    Check Fujian Agriculture and Forestry University'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

    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.
