The recorded application fee is CNY 450. Shanghai University of Traditional Chinese Medicine charges an application fee (申请费 / 报名费) of CNY 450 per person. Its 2026 Chinese-taught bachelor's admission guide (file CNB20269001) states under 9.费用标准 「申请费 人民币 450 元/人（实际到账金额）」 — CNY 450 per person, meaning the amount actually received by the university — and the fee section of its application procedure adds 「申请费一经缴纳，不予退还」, that the fee is non-refundable, with bank-transfer applicants required to quote their passport name and application number in the remittance note and online payers required to keep a screenshot annotated with those details. The English-taught 2026 bachelor's guide (file ENB2026900511) states the same figure in English: "CNY 450 for application (The actual amount the university receives, non-refundable)", and lists "Proof of the application fee payment" among the required documents. The figure may differ slightly from a foreign remittance because of exchange rates and bank charges, which is why the notices specify the amount actually received. This is the application fee and not tuition: the same guides publish tuition separately, recorded under tuition.

Shanghai University of Traditional Chinese Medicine (上海中医药大学) publishes its 2026 intake through the International Education College (国际教育学院, iec.shutcm.edu.cn), read on 17 September 2026. Chinese-taught bachelor's programmes, file number CNB20269001: applications ran 1 December 2025 to 30 June 2026, for the September 2026 entry, with the China Scholastic Competency Assessment (CSCA) score sheet accepted no later than 30 June 2026 and admission notices issued from May 2026 onward. The English-taught Bachelor of Traditional Chinese Medicine (Acupuncture), five years, file number ENB2026900511, carries the identical window of 1 December 2025 to 30 June 2026 for September 2026 entry. Shanghai Municipal Government Scholarship for International Students (上海市外国留学生政府奖学金): the university's own implementing rules (上海中医药大学"上海市外国留学生政府奖学金"申请细则) set the 2026 window as 1 January 2026 to 30 June 2026, with Grade A open to master's and doctoral applicants only and Grade B open to master's, doctoral and bachelor's applicants. Chinese Government Scholarship (中国政府奖学金): the university's 政府奖学金申请须知 sets no single date because the two types differ — Type A applicants apply through the Chinese embassy in their own country and that authority's deadline governs, and Type B applicants first apply to SHUTCM through apply.shutcm.edu.cn for recommendation, receive a pre-admission notice, then complete the CSC online system. University-level awards are dated by the university's own scholarship table (上海中医药大学全日制国际学生奖学金一览表): the International Students 励志 Scholarship (国际学生"励志奖学金") and the full-English-taught programme scholarship (国际学生（全英语授课）专业奖学金) both close 15 June each year, the Belt and Road Scholarship (国际学生"一带一路"奖学金) closes 30 September, while the 学前 Scholarship, the 好学生 Scholarship, the external-study excellence award, the language-student scholarship and the enterprise scholarships all close in September each year. The dated 2026 undergraduate and Shanghai Government Scholarship application windows listed above closed on 30 June 2026. The university-award June/September dates are annual policy descriptions rather than independently confirmed current calls, and CSC deadlines remain route-specific; no 2027 intake guide was located in the recorded review; the dated admission documents reviewed were the 2026 guides published in December 2025.
