Application timing and source scope

2026/2027 intake: Nanjing University of Science and Technology (南京理工大学) publishes its international admissions dates through the School of International Education (国际教育学院, study.njust.edu.cn); every notice was read on 17 September 2026. Self-funded undergraduate and postgraduate admission for the September 2026 intake ran from 30 November 2025 to 15 June 2026, per both the 2026 NJUST International Undergraduate Students Admission Guide and the 2026 NJUST International Postgraduate Students Admission Guide, published 20 November 2025; closed. The NJUST Lanshan Scholarship Program, the university's own institutional award, opened 30 November 2025 and closed 15 May 2026, with review in rounds from January to June 2026, results and document issuance in July 2026 and registration in early September 2026; closed. The CSC High-level Postgraduate Program (中国政府奖学金高水平研究生项目, Type B) opened 5 November 2025 and closed 5 March 2026; closed. The CSC Silk Road Program (中国政府奖学金丝绸之路项目, Type B) closed 21 May 2026; closed. All four application routes for the 2026/2027 intake have now closed. No 2027/2028 intake notice had been published on study.njust.edu.cn as of 17 September 2026, so this window covers the 2026/2027 intake only. The Jiangsu Jasmine Scholarship and the Nanjing Municipal Government-NJUST Scholarship appear as scholarship categories in the site menu, but neither category lists any dated notice, so no window can be recorded for them.

Historical CSC and university online filing

File in both njust.17gz.org and the CSC system at studyinchina.csc.edu.cn. The recorded university notice requires information and uploaded materials in the two systems to be completely consistent. The 2026 High-Level Type B round ran November 5, 2025–March 5, 2026; agency 10288 is recorded for that cycle. The source establishes two-system filing, not which system must be completed first. Any payment applicability to the chosen scholarship, current document list and 2027 period require the programme notice.

Reference: 2026/2027 High-Level notice, closed. 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 Nanjing University of Science and 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.

See annotated portal walkthroughs

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.

Follow the submission method in your programme's notice. The steps below apply when it requires an online form; email and paper applications follow their separate source-linked instructions above.

  1. Open the university link for your degree level. On an admissions website, find the international-student application entry, then register or sign in. Button names vary between systems.

  3. Enter personal information as it appears in your passport. List education and employment dates accurately, and enter a reliable email address.
  4. Complete the study plan and referee fields. Upload each document to its matching slot; enter a CSC application number only if your route asks for one.
  5. Preview the whole application. Follow the fee instructions, submit the form and check that the system acknowledges submission. Saving a draft does not submit it.

  4. Upload the requested documents, review all fields and submit. Download the completed application form; sign and upload it to the university or dispatching-authority system when instructed.
  5. Save your application number and a copy of the submitted form. If you withdraw to edit, submit again before the deadline and tell the receiving office if it already began reviewing your application.

University agency number on record: 10288. For Type B, match it to Nanjing University of Science and Technology in CSC. Type A uses your dispatching authority's number instead.
