Funding route on this profile

The profile includes CSC-related application guidance for Zhejiang Sci-Tech University. Type B participation, eligible programs, and deadlines must be confirmed in the current university call.

Agency number recorded: 10338. Confirm it in the current Type B notice before submitting.

Application fee

CNY 300 (application and registration charge) The current official Tuition and Fees page lists CNY 300 as Application & registration Fee. It instructs students to transfer required fees before registration and bring the payment statement. No refund policy or application-stage deadline is stated. The previously cited /ApplicationInfo/144 page is a 2016 admission notice, so its CNY 400 room deposit must not be treated as a confirmed current charge.

Published dates and unconfirmed windows

Application timing and source scope

Zhejiang Sci-Tech University publishes its international intake dates on its own International Education College admissions site at admission.zstu.edu.cn. For the 2026/2027 intake the Chinese Government Scholarship (Type B, 高水平研究生 project) window ran 1 January to 1 March 2026; the university's public list of 20 recommended candidates for the 2026-2027 academic year was published on 25 March 2026 and objections were accepted until 28 March 2026, so that window has closed. The 2026/2027 'Silk Road' Chinese Government Scholarship project list was published on 2 June 2026 and has also closed. The Zhejiang Provincial Government Scholarship runs on fixed annual windows: Class A (master's and doctoral applicants) 1 to 30 April, Class B (undergraduates) 1 to 31 May, with Class C for long-term non-degree students. The university's own President's Scholarship (校长奖学金) for new master's and doctoral degree students is open 1 to 30 April each year, and the ZSTU Current Students Scholarship is open 1 to 31 May each year. The 2026年国际学生招生简章 (2026 International Student Admission Guide), published 3 March 2026, does not print an overall self-funded application cut-off date; for the 2026/2027 cycle it instead requires bachelor's applicants to sit the CSCA (China Scholastic Competency Assessment) and submit the score to the application system before 31 May 2026, and states that applications are made online at zstu.at0086.cn/student before the application deadline. As of 17 September 2026 no 2027/2028 intake notice had been published, so the 2026/2027 dated windows above are the most recent published cycle.

  • 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.
