Shanghai Jiao Tong University (SJTU)上海交通大学 CSC and Other Scholarship Applications

@hejmeddig Congratulations! Still, they will nominate you to CSC? 

[Ramloc17]

@Eng_Mar3329 lol CSC hasnt awarded anything to anyone yet, that will be end of june i think. but nomination from the school is kinda 99% final

[hejmeddig]

I have no idea... They are telling me to fill out the CSC form via the university? But my EU Window application is "In Progress", now I'm really, really confused. I will e-mail them and ask for clarification.... Thanks for the congratulations~

I think if they chose you and you had the application via CSC filled out already, then you wouldn't have received this e-mail, so no need to worry. I think it just means that the decisions will be made soonish.

[Ramloc17]

Fill out the form and mail it to them as they say, you have to apply at http://studyinchina.csc.edu.cn

fill out the form with the sjtu agency number and the instructions in the email. then download it and email it to them

unless ofcourse SJTU is a second choice for you or something, in that case u might wana not do what they ask

 

[hejmeddig]

Do you recommend doing this even though I applied via EU Window?

[Ramloc17]

Yes, a 100%

[Eng_Mar3329]

@hejmeddig As fellow member @Ramloc17 said 99% surety of getting Type-A scholarship then, hope you will have too. We will be very glad to hear back from you. Bravo!

 

[Ramloc17]

These guys arent very organized. basically all scholarships are handed out by the CSC
you applied through the EU window, where your application was sent to the schools you applied to.
now the school has accepted you and they will apply for your funding through the csc (which they will get easily)

this is the final step.
give them the form so they can process it further

The EU window and individual embassies are only there to collect applications and pass them on, the real work is being done in china by the universities.
and a university nomination is practically everything when it comes to scholarship decision

[hejmeddig]

@Ramloc17 Wow you know so much, much appreciated.

 

@Ramloc17 @Eng_Mar3329

Okay thanks so much for the help guys. I will fill out another CSC form. I am happy that this is probably a good sign. Good luck going forward to everyone!

[Ramloc17]

@hejmeddig lol no not really, ive just been obsessing over this for the past 3 months.

[MaLei]

Hello @hejmeddig

@Ramloc17

I also got a similar email from the Graduate School a few days ago:

 

Dear applicant,

 

We are pleased to inform you that we are planning to nominate you as an excellent CSC Scholarship (Sino-US Program) winner for the 2017 graduate program of Shanghai Jiao Tong University. However, we did not find your scholarship application on the CSC website (http://www.csc.edu.cn/Laihua/). Please register on the website, follow the application procedure to fill in and submit your application form ASAP. Upon completion, please send your application form and serial number to us via our email (iso.gs@sjtu.edu.cn) .

 

When applying, please make sure to choose scholarship Category B, and fill in the agency number blank with SJTU’s agency number “10248”.

 

 The email mentions a Sino-US program (where I'm from) which I was unaware existed. Before, I had applied directly to the school (my first choice) instead of an embassy, MOFCOM or some other program. Since replying with the documents 4 days ago, I have not heard back from them. So I guess like everyone else, the only thing left to do is dig in and wait

omg @hejmeddig @Nhq0117 congratulations you guys!! It kinda feels like getting a letter from Hogwarts! 

[Ramloc17]

@Nhq0117 Congrats buddy!, yeah unfortunately only thing now is to wait. Youve been nominated that means that now you have to wait for final aproval from the CSC which is in late june early july i think. But dont worry Your practically in.

 

In other news a friend of mine got nomination for A-Type for his PhD from SJTU, does anyone know a masters student who applied directly to the university who has been nominated?

[MaLei]

I think if you applied as a Master student through the university they're not going to send you an email to notify you that you've been nominated. They'll only inform you when CSC has approved, I think.

[Ramloc17]

I think i heard something like that, where are you getting this information though?

[uchiha]

Has anyone's Scholarship status changed on the website, my friend just got another option for enrollment.

[Ramloc17]

Still the same, what option did he get?

[uchiha]

His Scholarship status has changed from under review to self-paid @Ramloc17

Hmmm congrats guys, were are still waiting for notifications
