Always confirm the deadline and eligibility on the official page before applying.
Eligibility
International students applying for bachelor's, master's or PhD study in China; deadlines and routes (Type A/B) vary by university and country. Pakistani applicants should also check the HEC notice.
How to apply
- Read the eligibility rules on the official page: nationality, degree level, subject, age, minimum CGPA and any test scores (IELTS, TOEFL, GRE, GAT or HAT).
- Make a document checklist early: transcripts, degree, passport or CNIC, test results, a statement of purpose and usually two or three recommendation letters.
- Ask your referees at least three weeks before the deadline, and send them your CV and a short note on what to mention.
- Write the statement of purpose for this scholarship: your goal, why this programme, and what you will do afterwards.
- Submit through the official portal only. Scholarships never require you to pay an agent to “guarantee” selection.
