This scholarship supports enrollment in undergraduate, master’s, and doctoral programs. The scholarship duration is 4 years for undergraduate students, 2–3 years for master’s students, and 4 years for doctoral students. For master’s and doctoral program applications, it is recommended to prioritize applying for USTB’s Chinese Government Scholarship—High-Level Postgraduate Program (which also provides an opportunity to be considered for the Dingxin Scholarship).

The scholarship duration is determined based on the period of study specified at the time of admission and generally cannot be extended.

Students must participate in the annual scholarship review; only those who pass the review will continue to receive the scholarship funding.

BENEFIT:

Full Scholarship: Covers tuition fees, on-campus accommodation, living allowance, and comprehensive medical insurance.
