How to apply to Inner Mongolia Normal University
内蒙古师范大学
Hohhot, Inner Mongolia, China
This guide brings together the application routes, published timing, submission methods, scholarship steps, documents, and source links recorded for Inner Mongolia Normal University. Requirements can differ by degree, program, teaching language, and funding route. The university’s current notice controls the application.
Application fee
The application-fee status has not been verified for the current route. The official 2026/2027 self-funded admissions brochure of Inner Mongolia Normal University publishes a full tuition table (学费收费标准) and an accommodation and insurance table, but states no application or registration fee anywhere. Its published charges are tuition only, quoted in the notice as 元/年/生 (RMB per year per student): degree undergraduates 14,000 liberal arts / 15,400 science and engineering / 22,400 arts and physical education; master's 18,000 / 19,800 / 28,800; doctoral 22,000 / 24,200 / 35,200; non-degree Chinese language students 10,000; general visiting students (undergraduate level) 12,000 / 13,200 / 19,200; senior visiting students (master's level) 14,000 / 15,400 / 22,400; research scholars 16,000 / 17,600 / 25,600. Accommodation is RMB 9,600 (single), 4,800 (double) or 2,400 (quadruple) per person per bed per year for stays of six months or longer, and insurance is RMB 800 per person per year. Because these are all annual tuition and living charges and no application fee is stated, the application fee is recorded as unknown rather than free; the brochure's omission is not evidence that no fee exists.
