Published dates and unconfirmed windows
Application timing and source scope
Taiyuan University of Science and Technology publishes one dated window for the 2026 intake. Its 2026 International Student Enrollment Guide, published on the School of International Education and Exchange site on 3 February 2026 in both Chinese and English, states a single application deadline of 10 May 2026, after which applications are no longer accepted (逾期不再受理申请); that window has closed as of 28 September 2026. The guide covers master's and doctoral degree applicants only, with online submission through tyust.at0086.cn/student and no postal originals required unless the university requests them. The university's announcement list contains exactly one notice — this 2026 guide — and no 2027 intake notice had been published when I checked on 28 September 2026. The 2025 counterpart guide set the same 10 May deadline for 2025 (截至2025年5月10日), so 10 May is the university's pattern, but no published 2027 notice confirms a 2027 date. No separate scholarship deadline, CSC deadline or departmental cut-off is published, and TYUST states nowhere that it accepts Chinese Government Scholarship applicants.
Guide scope reviewed 3 October 2026. Dates apply only to the intake and route named in each notice.
