Question 1

Which programmes are available in English?

Question 2

What qualification will I receive?

What are the academic and age requirements?

Question 4

Do I need IELTS or TOEFL?

Accepted Answer

English-route applicants must provide valid English proficiency evidence, for example TOEFL, IELTS or an equivalent result. The current undergraduate guide gives no numerical minimum or automatic English-medium schooling exemption. Ask admissions which evidence and threshold apply to the next cohort.

Question 5

Is HSK4 required for English entry?

Accepted Answer

Accepted Answer

The verified fall 2026 window ran from 1 November 2025 to 30 June 2026 and has passed. The standing university page describes applications from November to June. An exact next-cohort deadline and start date require confirmation; do not treat the old window as open.
