Scholarship

The Provincial Government Scholarship requires an academic ranking in the top 30% of the applicant's level and major with no failing grades, and the University Academic Scholarship requires a ranking in the top 50% with no failing grades.

CSC agency number

The Chinese Government Scholarship does not appear in ZCMU's own admission brochure, its scholarship notice or its fee standard, and Zhejiang Chinese Medical University is not listed among the Chinese Government Scholarship host institutions on the China Scholarship Council's official Study in China portal, so no CSC agency number is published for it.
