How to apply at Donghua University
The application process is standard for the Chinese Government Scholarship. The one value unique to Donghua University is its agency number — 10255 — which you enter when designating the university on the CSC portal.
How to apply, step by step
1Check the application window (usually opens in November and closes in April of the following year) and confirm your target university accepts the Chinese Government Scholarship.
2Contact your target university / a potential supervisor to secure an invitation or acceptance letter if required; many programmes need one before you submit.
3Create an account and complete the CSC online application at studyinchina.csc.edu.cn, entering your chosen university's agency number as the designated agency.
4Complete the host university's own online application form, if it requires one, and upload the same documents.
5Submit all required documents before the deadline, online through the CSC portal and, where the university asks, a hard copy to the International Students Office.
6Wait for the university / CSC review and result. Shortlisted applicants may be contacted for an interview.
Agency numbers are the official CSC values republished by third-party sources and may change. Always confirm Donghua University's agency number on the CSC portal (studyinchina.csc.edu.cn) or its International Students Office before submitting.
