The application deadline for the CAS-TWAS Scholarship, B&R Scholarship and UCAS Scholarship is March 31, 2019. Applicants can apply for multiple scholarship programs at the same time, and once they are funded by one of the programs, they will automatically lose their eligibility to participate in the other programs.

All international students must complete the online admission application procedures through the "UCAS International Student Online Application System" (http://adis.ucas.ac.cn). Among them, students who apply for the CAS-TWAS scholarship need to log in to the scholarship online application system (http://www.fellowship.cas.cn/dms/) and complete their online application procedures.

All kinds of certificates and certificates about the uploading system must be scanned copies of the originals in Chinese or English.

Documents photographed by mobile phones or cameras are not accepted, and photocopies are not accepted.

3. About entrance examination/assessment

For applicants who have passed the review of the online application materials, the system will automatically send an email to notify the tutor to conduct the assessment. The tutor is asked to conduct the re-examination assessment of the applicants and select the best ones for admission. The assessment method can be in the form of an interview (or an interview plus a written test), which will be determined by the tutor depending on the actual situation. The assessment content should focus on the applicant's professional foundation, scientific research potential, language level and comprehensive ability. For applicants who pass the assessment and who have the intention of accepting the tutor, please fill in the acceptance comments in the system.

Entrance assessment is an important link to ensure the quality of education for international students in our school. Please attach great importance to all tutors and strictly control the quality of enrollment. For those who do not meet the admission requirements, do not recommend to submit.
