- MOFCOM Scholarship
Scholarship applicant can apply for the CSC Scholarship more than one University at the same time. I would suggest you do not apply for more than three universities. However, you have to fill separate CSC scholarship online application form for CSC scholarship and University Application form for admission and then submit it separately to each university. As per the details verified by the Chinese Scholarship Council, international students have the liberty to apply for admission under scholarships in 273 universities and these universities are recognized with China Scholarships Council.
What are your chances to win a Chinese Government Scholarship?
If you grades in the study are higher than average and you have a clear and novel research proposal or study plan, then you have high chances of being selected for the Chinese Government Scholarship, which is offered by CSC in any of the 273 Chinese University which is recognized with Chinese Scholarship Council. There are many cases happens in Chinese Universities we have seen students with high grades often were rejected because they did not write a research proposal or study plan. Therefore, you should write plagiarism free by yourself with your own words as well as you could get the idea from the mentioned sample in the download section. We also seen the average student successfully won fully funded Chinese Scholarships just because of their complete listed documentation and well-researched and nicely written study plan or research proposal with clear thoughts.
Can scholarships applicant apply for CSC Scholarship in more than one University?
NEW CSC Policy Updated: Within each enrollment year, each applicant is allowed submit no more than 3 applications, including a maximum of 2 Type A and 1 Type B applications. Multiple Type A applications of one applicant shall not be submitted to the same agency. Under the circumstance that applicant of Type B application having several preferred Chinese universities, the applicant shall choose one of them for scholarship application. The university within the submitted Type B application will be regarded as the applicant’s final decision, which is not allowed to change when the application is processed.
Just you need to make sure to fill separate CSC Scholarship online application forms for university. If you apply for Chinese Scholarship in more than one university through A type, it will increase the chances to win a Scholarship. China Scholarship Council officials change the policy only in 3 universities by following 1 through CSC Scholarship category B and 2 through CSC Scholarship category A.
If in case, you are selected by more than one University for CSC Scholarship. And then China Scholarship Council will decide which university is good enough for you and you will then be admitted under CSC Scholarship in that particular University. There are nearly 273 Chinese Universities awarding CSC Scholarships to international students.
If China Scholarship Council will decide university for you than you do not have a chance to change your university after notification.

Don’t worry; The acceptance letter is not mandatory for the scholarship it is plus point which can increase your chance. Every year there are 50 % of Chinese Government Scholarship winners does not have an acceptance letter. They impress to scholarship selection committee from their research proposal or study plan. As well as some universities took an interview if they impress them during the interview, defiantly they will win any of the above-mentioned Chinese scholarships.

There are many universities they have the language of instruction Chinese only, but they are offering one-year Chinese language under CSC scholarships, you don’t need to apply separately, the university will do for you all, and I think its kind opportunity to learn the Chinese language. If you are the concern with thesis it entirely depends on your professor, they usually agree to write the thesis in English, so you don’t have to worry about this.

Can I study while working in China?
Yes, you can work while studying in China. But before 2023, part-time jobs or internships in China for international students were not allowed while studying in China. But the Chinese government understood that this policy avoids international students from taking admissions in China, and then they changed the law. Now international students can easily find part-time English language teaching jobs or other part-time jobs in China while studying at any Chinese University. To make it legal, you need a NOC letter from your supervisor and then submit it to the international student office (ISO) to obtain a part-time job license alongside your studies.
