Prile Posted April 6, 2016 at 11:06 PM Report Share Posted April 6, 2016 at 11:06 PM Hi Breaknet, I am just wondering if you have applied the CGS through the Quebec education ministry or directly through the Chinese Consulate in Montreal? I sent my application directly to the Chinese Consulate in Montreal, because I am not a quebec resident so Icould not apply through the Quebec education ministry. I asked the embassy yesterday when they are going to release the result, they told me it is still too early and told me to wait. I am super nervous now. Do you know anyone else that also got the email? BTW, which are your three choices of universities? Did you apply to a language program or other program?

Breaknet Posted April 7, 2016 at 02:17 AM Report Share Posted April 7, 2016 at 02:17 AM Well, I'm a Quebecer, so I was allowed to go through the Ministry of Education. However, I didn't take any chances and I have also applied through the Chinese embassy (long story). The Ministry of Education said that it takes several months for the Chinese party to process all the requests: consequently, they will reply in June/July.For my university choices, I have applied for China Ocean University, Xi'an Jiaotong (don't ask me why) and Sun Yat-sen University.

I.carranza Posted April 9, 2016 at 06:31 PM Report Share Posted April 9, 2016 at 06:31 PM Please someone help me. I have an award letter from the embassy, they told me to send it to the universities so I could obtain the preadmission letter, however I need to take preparation courses prior starting my major, I had the misconception that the university I choose was going to be the one in charge of giving me the preparatory courses but no, after reading CSC website I noticed that there are only 10 Chinese Universities entitled to give the preparatory courses, CSC will randomly choose one university for you to study until you reach HSK 5 (or 6) after that you can start your major. How does this works ? Sichuan University sent me a letter saying that I will be taking preparation courses from September 2016 to July 2017 prior starting my major, but they are not among the 10 universities who are entitled to provide Chinese preparatory courses...I'm extremely confused please someone help with me.

Breaknet Posted April 9, 2016 at 09:10 PM Report Share Posted April 9, 2016 at 09:10 PM In my opinion, there are several way to get your preparation classes. First, you could go to one of the pre-selected universities and do your studies over there. Second, you could register for the Confucius Institute Grant and pick a school available. Then, you have to undergo the HSK 4 or 5 (depending on your objectives and requirements) for getting access to the classroom (and the CSC grant).

New Members purevdulam Posted April 11, 2016 at 05:09 AM New Members Report Share Posted April 11, 2016 at 05:09 AM Hey guys I wasn't able to read through the whole thread (my apologies), but i have a quick question (hope it is not too repetitive of a question). After receiving an award letter from Chinese Embassy in your country, are you still encouraged to apply to each uni to obtain an admission letter or CSC does it for you before June? Because my understanding is that in a case where you have no admission letter, the CSC just designate you to some uni based on your major? Yes/no? All responses will be greatly appreciated. Thank you!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
animus128 Posted April 11, 2016 at 09:40 AM Report Share Posted April 11, 2016 at 09:40 AM Hello, just a quick question: Does anyone know if the "application status" on the CSC application page will be changed or will it stay at "Application form has been already submitted." for the whole application process?

Sula Posted April 11, 2016 at 12:23 PM Report Share Posted April 11, 2016 at 12:23 PM @animus123 Hi, as far as i understood by reading 2014 csc theme, the CSC application status through student login is useless. It may change, may not change at all, and you will need to contact the university or embasy to know your real status. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

animus128 Posted April 11, 2016 at 08:26 PM Report Share Posted April 11, 2016 at 08:26 PM @LaszloBalogh Thanks for the answer! If you don't mind answering, could you tell me when your application was submitted? My university gave mine to the Chinese embassy on March the 31th and it is still stuck at "Application form has been already submitted." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LaszloBalogh Posted April 11, 2016 at 08:32 PM Report Share Posted April 11, 2016 at 08:32 PM It was originally submitted on 1st of March, I've changed some data and had to resubmit it on the 5th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pnfha5 Posted April 12, 2016 at 06:42 AM Report Share Posted April 12, 2016 at 06:42 AM Hey guys! When should we ask our applied universities about the admission status? It's already mid-April, and they must have made some sorta decision if we are being accepted or not, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Torreno Posted April 12, 2016 at 09:28 AM Report Share Posted April 12, 2016 at 09:28 AM @pnfha5 Middle/End of May @I.carranza Ask them via email 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rytis95 Posted April 13, 2016 at 04:40 AM Report Share Posted April 13, 2016 at 04:40 AM @Torreno I thought that they simply give a list of names mid July. Do they inform the winners earlier than that individually? It would make the waiting pain go away earlier haha Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex_Hart Posted April 14, 2016 at 03:12 AM Report Share Posted April 14, 2016 at 03:12 AM I have confirmation that my application has been received by the school! Looking forward to hearing back now. Good luck to everyone. Hope you've all sent out your applications by now! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Two Times Posted April 14, 2016 at 03:31 AM Author Report Share Posted April 14, 2016 at 03:31 AM Without being a pest, I intend to periodically check in with the Chinese Embassy in Washington, DC (where I sent my application) just to see how things are going and if there is any new word on things. I did email them around the 1st of April and they confirmed that they received my application. If this year will be like last year, in my case I am prepared to wait until July for some more substantial news. We shall see. Again, my advice for all is to directly contact the representatives that pertain to your situation to see what kind of answers they can best provide you for your questions. Warm regards, Chris Two Times 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
