How to apply to Shanxi University of Chinese Medicine

山西中医药大学

Jinzhong, Shanxi, China

This guide brings together the application routes, published timing, submission methods, scholarship steps, documents, and source links recorded for Shanxi University of Chinese Medicine. Requirements can differ by degree, program, teaching language, and funding route. The university’s current notice controls the application.

Funding route on this profile

The profile includes CSC-related application guidance for Shanxi University of Chinese Medicine. Type B participation, eligible programs, and deadlines must be confirmed in the current university call.

Agency number recorded: 10809. Confirm it in the current Type B notice before submitting.

Application fee

The application-fee status has not been verified for the current route. No study application fee is published for Shanxi University of Chinese Medicine. The 2026 international student admissions brochure (both the Chinese 招生简章 and the English Admissions Brochure, published 26 February 2026) sets out a complete 费用/Fees list for each level — tuition, accommodation, insurance, physical examination and textbooks — and states that the only remaining item is a 'Visa Application Fee (for learning residence permit)' charged 'As per actual charges'. That is the fee for converting an X1 visa into a residence permit payable to the Chinese exit-entry authorities, not an application fee for studying. Because no official page states a study application fee and none states that applications are free, the status is recorded as unknown rather than confirmed-free.

Published dates and unconfirmed windows

Application timing and source scope

Shanxi University of Chinese Medicine published its 2026 international student admissions brochure on 26 February 2026, fixing the self-funded application period for the 2026/2027 academic year as 1 March 2026 to 31 July 2026 (2026年3月1日—2026年7月31日); that window closed on 31 July 2026. The university's 2026 Chinese Government Scholarship 'High-Level Graduate' Program notice, published 27 October 2025, set a separate CSC deadline of 15 March 2026 (报名截止:2026年3月15日), which has also closed; the identical notice for 2025/2026 carried the same 15 March cut-off, so mid-March is the recurring CSC date. Applications run in parallel through the CSC system (Type B, agency number 10809) and the university's own portal, and shortlisted applicants sit an entrance examination by email invitation. Taiwan-region applicants have a distinct window of 1-31 March 2026. No 2027/2028 intake notice had been published as of 17 September 2026.

Read the university's procedure
  1. 1

    Choose your program and intake

    Check Shanxi University of Chinese Medicine'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.

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
