Application timing and source scope

Ningxia University (宁夏大学) publishes a dated 2026 intake in its 2026 ADMISSION GUIDE FOR INTERNATIONAL STUDENTS (2026年宁夏大学来华留学招生简章), posted 1 February 2026 by its Office of International Cooperation and Exchange at hzjl.nxu.edu.cn/info/1035/1781.htm and reopened on 29 September 2026; the guide is published as page images, so its dates were read by OCR. For the 2026/2027 autumn intake it sets two windows on its APPLICATION, ADMISSION & REGISTRATION page: the transcript application period for the autumn semester runs from 1 January to 30 May, but applicants for the Chinese Government Scholarship must submit materials in both the CSC system at studyinchina.csc.edu.cn and the university system at apply.nxu.cucas.cn and face an earlier CSC deadline of 25 March, while all other scholarship applicants face a deadline of 30 May. The admission period for the autumn semester runs from 15 June to 15 July 2026 and results are posted at hzjl.nxu.edu.cn/lxnd/xljy.htm; registration falls at the end of August or the beginning of September according to the acceptance letter. The 2026 international student admission list was published on 10 July 2026 at hzjl.nxu.edu.cn/info/1039/1822.htm. All of these 2026/2027 windows have closed at the date of this check.

Check the official admissions website for results and bring original qualifications at registration. Other scholarships had May 30 deadlines; NXU’s own scholarship requires only its portal.

Read the university's procedure
  1. 1

    Choose your program and intake

    Check Ningxia 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

    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.

  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.

Application templates
How to fill the university application

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.

How to fill the CSC application

  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.
