Jabri Posted May 15, 2017 at 05:16 PM Report Posted May 15, 2017 at 05:16 PM @zhandingjietie What I see is the language studies slots would be reduced but I don't think they will terminate the language program anytime soon. In fact, isn't the language program option has just been categorised under the global or senior scholar programme since 2 years ago?(correct me if I'm wrong). CSC just make the change and I think they would let it remain that way.
artfullounger Posted May 15, 2017 at 06:13 PM Report Posted May 15, 2017 at 06:13 PM Hey all, I'm new though I've been reading this and last year's threads for a while now. My questions is if applications through the DC Chinese embassy are grouped separately from those through the NYC Chinese Consulate.
New Members MC2 Posted May 15, 2017 at 07:15 PM New Members Report Posted May 15, 2017 at 07:15 PM Does anyone know what happens to our applications if we don't receive a scholarship? Does the university still admit us as potential self-supporting students, or is the university application denied at that point, too? Thanks!
Guest Posted May 15, 2017 at 09:23 PM Report Posted May 15, 2017 at 09:23 PM @zhandingjietie I personally think that those HSK 5-6 holders apply mostly for graduate students and beyond so the preparatory language course would still broadly apply for undergrads. It's important to consider that most of them (us) don't really have a chinese proficiency at all and the amount of applicants inside that group is smaller compared to the other ones.
Tiri Posted May 16, 2017 at 08:30 AM Report Posted May 16, 2017 at 08:30 AM @MC2 According to SJTU website: "If you didn’t get scholarship type A, your application will be transferred to type B, or type C or type D automatically." I suppose it is the case with most universities, if not all of them

Thanks! Before being considered for a scholarship, you have to be admitted to the university first. If you don't get pre-admission, you won't even be considered for a scholarship. So yes the university still keeps you as a self-supporting student (that's if you got pre-admission)
igoeth Posted May 18, 2017 at 12:16 AM Report Posted May 18, 2017 at 12:16 AM @artfullounger That is an interesting point. I would guess that they probably are grouped differently. However, the DC embassy has been very responsive in email throughout the process. Did you try giving NY a call or an email? Maybe you should drop by in person if you're in the city.

Not yet, since I didn't directly apply through the consulate, rather I applied through the IIE to be my sponsors, they're American (partially government) organization that is known for administering Fullbright Scholarships. I'm not particularly worried about that part since I accidentally found out my application was being sent out to my selected schools, implying that I had made it past the CSC stage. They definitely seem to be less communicative than the embassy, however.
DSK Posted May 19, 2017 at 12:57 AM Report Posted May 19, 2017 at 12:57 AM Hello boys and girls "my first comment" was following for a while though, got accepted at Renmin Univ- applied directly- what's really getting me annoyed is this wait for the CSC results. last month the Univ asked for application fees 600 RMB which I transferred, and they told me CSC results are expected by end of June. I really don't know how I'm going to wait . Anyone going to Renmin and can give me an advice please ?
Danito Posted May 19, 2017 at 07:15 AM Report Posted May 19, 2017 at 07:15 AM I heard that the CSC results will be announced in late July...

You should call them instead, that's how I managed to get hold of them. The lady was very helpful. Hey, which number did you call? I've tried calling them a couple of times, but no answer. Is your status still "Submitted."?

I hesitated, but after communicating with the international student office, it seemed I had high chances of being accepted. However I am now feeling very anxious as my status is still stuck on submitted and I haven't heard back from SCU. I now wish I had also applied through the EU window programme as well... Last year I was recommended by SCU but my name got mixed up with someone else's on the CSC's website and I ended up not getting the scholarship. It would be devastating if I don't get it this year.
Rytis95 Posted May 19, 2017 at 09:45 AM Report Posted May 19, 2017 at 09:45 AM Thanks. Called them just now. A really nice lady answered the phone. She said my application has been received, but she couldn't give me any more information regarding whether my application has passed the first round.
hejmeddig Posted May 19, 2017 at 11:04 AM Report Posted May 19, 2017 at 11:04 AM I managed to get a hold of the EU Window as well and was told that they had finished the first round of processing and the materials will be sent to the CSC soon. However, they had not been sent yet.
artfullounger Posted May 19, 2017 at 01:14 PM Report Posted May 19, 2017 at 01:14 PM First round as in approved by the universities now too?
New Members Case Jr Posted May 20, 2017 at 12:32 AM New Members Report Posted May 20, 2017 at 12:32 AM I am new to this forum but I am really glad I found it! I have these burning questions which have been asked by a couple of guys above but no answers still, what does the status really means? My girlfriend applied for scholarship via CSC this year (2017) she submitted all necessary documents via the dispatching authorities in Tanzania. She also had a pre-admission notice from Wuhan University! At submission everyone assured her that she will be selected mostly because she had that pre admission notice. But till now her status is reading "SUBMITTED"???? What does submitted really means? Does it mean somebody is already accepted? Or the application is already at a respective university for review? And what about those with admissions already to specific university? And what about "IN PROGRESS" status? does it mean they are still trying to find the applicant the University? And is it really the next step to submitted? Any answer will help guys, this is killing me!
wanzima35 Posted May 21, 2017 at 10:48 AM Report Posted May 21, 2017 at 10:48 AM hmmm any one with news from Wuhan University of Technology, i got pre-admission notice letter, but still my status at CSC website is Submitted.
