Confucius Institute Scholarship Application Status

[hoshinoumi]

I suggested in the Confucius Institute Scholarship topic the idea of creating a topic for all the possible Application Status and people seemed to like the idea, so here we go.

 

Let me know every single application update you get and I will edit this first comment to have a database. So far I have seen or people have commented:

When your application is just sent and being reviewed by your CI:

• 推荐机构择优确认中 pending of recommending institution's approval (aka your CI)
• 推荐机构择优确认中”- 驳回 (意见：请同时提供以孔子学院名义拟写的推荐信。) Pending of recommending institution's approval: rejected. Reason: recommendation letter must be signed by the recommending institution.
• 申请进度：“推荐机构择优确认中”- 驳回 (意见：请申请者正式提交HSK考试证书扫描件。)Pending of recommending institution's approval: rejected. Reason: please provide scans of the original HSK certificate.
• 已确认 application accepted. (Your CI has accepted and sent your app, which will now be reviewed by the Host Institution)

​You should be contacted by your CI if you get any mistakes during this first process.

 

When your application is being reviewed by your 1st choice host institution:

• “接收院校审核中”- 预录取 (意见：经审核材料，符合录取条件。) Pending of Host Institution review: pre-admited (the documents have checked and are suitable).
• “接收院校审核中”- 预录取 (意见：经审核，该生身份属实，申请材料齐全 包括：1）护照首页；2）HSK XXXX、HSKK初级: XXXX；3）推荐机构负责人签发的推荐信、孔子学院学员证明等。同意录取！ )Pending of Host Institution review: Pre-admited (all your documents have being checked, the host institution agrees to admit you).
• “接收院校审核中”- 录取 (意见：申请者身份属实，材料齐全，同意录取。)Pending of Host Institution review: admited (Identity of the students and materials are correct and accepted).
• “奖学金资格评审中”- 退回院校 (意见：经研究，为保证录取学生质量，提高录取效率，请各相关院校本着质量优先、国别平衡原则，重新预录取。) Reviewing scholarship application requirements and applicant's qualifications -- sent back by institution [rejected by target university] (Review further. In order to ensure quality of students and improve the efficiency of admissions, please admit based on quality and prioritize excellent applicants, balance according to country. return to pre-admitted status.) It's a nice way of saying your target university feels that they would like to give way to better applicants. Doesn't mean you won't receive the scholarship. Your status goes back to pre-admission.
• 接收院校审核中 (意见：招生工作节点，转第二志愿院校).  - application transfered to your second choice
• 接收院校审核中- 调剂院校  (意见：招生工作节点转至汉办调剂) - application transfered to a different university (not accepted by 1st and 2nd choice uni)

When your application is aproved by host institution and Hanban reviews it:

• 申请进度：奖学金资格评审中- 授予奖学金  Scholarship granted by Hanban
• 申请进度：“奖学金综合评审结束”- 授予奖学金 (意见：孔子学院总部同意授予“XXX”奖学金。) Scholarship evaluation finished: Scholarship granted (Hanban has agreed on giving you the XXX (one semester/one year....) scholarship).

 

 

What else do you have? Keep posting any updates you see so that people can know what it means when they get these messages.

Mine just changed from 已确认 to:

申请进度：“接收院校审核中”- 预录取 
(意见：经审核材料，符合录取条件。) - pre-admitted

 

 

From last years posts I gathered that if everything is ok it the next one should be:

 

申请进度：“接收院校审核中”- 录取 
(意见：申请者身份属实，材料齐全，同意录取。) - accepted by the univeristy 

 

and then in June something like that:

 

申请进度：“奖学金资格评审中”- 授予奖学金 

(意见：祝贺荣获孔子学院奖学金！学校领取孔子学院奖学金证书，请咨询wangxiaoxu@hanban.org，并请学校将入学材料寄至推荐机构转交奖学金生。)2015年度获得全额奖学金。 - scholarship granted by hanban 

 

Other statuses from last year:

申请进度：“接收院校审核中”- 调剂院校 

(意见：招生工作节点转至汉办调剂) - application transfered to a different university (not accepted by 1st and 2nd choice uni)

 

接收院校审核中” 

(意见：招生工作节点，转第二志愿院校).  - application transfered to your second choice

Thanks a lot bolanren!! I'm sure many people here will appreciate it, me included!

[Dianka]

Today I got the following:

申请进度：“推荐机构择优确认中”- 驳回

(意见：请申请者正式提交HSK考试证书扫描件。)

As far as I got, it has to do with the HSK/HSKK certificates, they want to see scanned photocopies of the certificates, not the screenshots.

[hoshinoumi]

thank you Dianka, I will add that status to the first comment to keep everything at hand for everybody.

[Xingwang]

Hi guys. Some of the messages we recieved (that I didn't see in your list).

 

 

1)

 

 

2) 请推荐机构对照2016年招生办法，仔细核对申请者资质

 

3) "建议学生不要集中填报某个志愿学校"

[hoshinoumi]

Thanks, Xingwang, could you please give an explanation of them so we can add them to the first post? Thanks!

[crisgee]

Good job houshinomi!

 

Let me share my interpretations:

 

申请进度：“奖学金资格评审中”- 退回院校 (意见：经研究，为保证录取学生质量，提高录取效率，请各相关院校本着质量优先、国别平衡原则，重新预录取。

Reviewing scholarship application requirements and applicant's qualifications -- sent back by institution [rejected by target university] (Review further. In order to ensure quality of students and improve the efficiency of admissions, please admit based on quality and prioritize excellent applicants, balance according to country. return to pre-admitted status.)

 

 

@Xingwang:

 

1) Basically your recommending institution did not check your application properly before submitting it to Hanban there are all sorts of problems with it. They want them (or you) to review the application procedures. ]

2) Same as 1 but more direct. They are asking your recommending institution to follow the guidelines.

 

What Hanban wants them to do specifically will be communicated to them directly and not to the applicant.

 

3) We suggest that the student refrain from (incessantly) contacting the target university ------- I think someone in the target university got pissed off and ask Hanban to tell the student to handle matters with the CI first.

[hoshinoumi]

Thanks for the info, crisgee, your help in these posts are invaluable to all of us!

Hello guys, today I have got this

申请进度：“接收院校审核中”- 预录取

(意见：申请合格，择优录取。)

[Americaleon]

Mine just changed from 已确认 to:

申请进度：“接收院校审核中”- 预录取

(意见：该生成绩符合申请条件，由于我校合作的2所孔院均在东南亚，为了扩大生源国，决定录取。)

Can you help me?

[bolanren]

all good Americaleon, you're accepted by the university, now all you need to do is wait for hanban to confirm that they're giving you the scholarship, it shouldn't take very long

[hoshinoumi]

Americaleon, your host university has agreed to enroll you as a student.

[esteebao]

Hello everyone, 
 
my status changed from 已确认 to 申请进度：“接收院校审核中” 
(意见：综合考虑，不予录取)  and the name of the institution automatically switched to my second choice. Does this mean that my first option refused my application and that my second option will most likely turn it down too? I couldn't find any information about this kind of status and I wanted to ask if someone knows something about it. 

Thank you!

[bolanren]

Esteebao, there's still hope that your second choice uni won't turn you down. It would have been nice of your first choice uni to give you a reason for not accepting you, but, on the other hand, if there was something really wrong with your application they probably would have told you. So, be patient and good luck

Mine says

 

申请进度：“接收院校审核中”- 预录取
(意见：同意。)

 

Am I just waiting on my host institution or Hanban?

[hoshinoumi]

@baihua I got the same and as far as I know, that's waiting for Hanban

[putonghuastudentmark]

Still on 推荐机构择优确认中

Submitted late March.

 

Should I chase up the CI?

[bolanren]

definitely! 

[ampw10]

Hi there!

 

Mine just changed to: 申请进度：“接收院校审核中”- 预录取 

(意见：经综合评审，同意预录取该生为汉语研修生（一学年）。)

 

If I understand well, I got pre-accepted by the university, right?
