## Campus and city

The university’s international admissions brochure combines degree study with Chinese language and cultural learning. Its campus accommodation includes shared facilities, while academic work is organised through subject schools. Confirm the actual teaching location and assigned residence for the chosen programme. The historical lake photograph dates from 2018 and does not establish current facilities or campus allocation.

Ludong University is based in Yantai, Shandong. Its international student office publishes an address in Zhifu District on Hongqizhong Road. The city location is relevant when planning arrival, housing and daily travel, but the office address alone does not allocate every class or residence. Follow the admission instructions for the actual registration point and confirm transport arrangements before travel.

The university’s International Economics and Trade profile focuses on international business, trade operations and the changing trade environment. It describes cross-border e-commerce teaching and practical education activity within the major. These subject strengths help applicants form questions about the curriculum and applied learning available to the English cohort. A whole-major profile does not guarantee a particular internship, employer placement or overseas exchange place; confirm the exact opportunities and their entry conditions with the Business School.


## Hostel, food and safety

The 2026 brochure lists standard twin rooms at CNY 40 per person per day. It describes a bed, bookcase, wardrobe, private bathroom, Wi-Fi and refrigerator, with shared laundry, hot-water and kitchen facilities. Confirm the assigned room, current condition, booking dates and payment basis before arrival. The daily tariff is not converted into an assumed annual charge, and specific residence availability is not guaranteed.

The brochure lists a shared kitchen among residence facilities. Confirm current access, equipment and permitted food preparation for the assigned building, along with dining locations and any specific dietary needs. The tuition and accommodation references do not include a verified compulsory meal plan or establish universal halal provision; plan food and other daily expenses separately.

Applicants submit a recent physical examination form and a non-criminal record certificate. The 2026 insurance reference is CNY 800 per year or CNY 400 per half-year, and the brochure requires all students to purchase insurance. Confirm current health checks, coverage and arrival procedures before travel; a quoted service charge is not a guarantee of later medical or immigration costs.

The university publishes an International Student Office within its International Exchange and Cooperation Office. Applications proceed through its official online process and information review, followed by academic-school assessment where required. Students Traffic can help compare the public programme details and prepare questions; university staff determine admission, document acceptance and residence arrangements.


## Frequently asked questions

### What English degree is verified?

The current bilingual international brochure explicitly lists International Economics and Trade as an English undergraduate route in the Business School. Check the exact route with the university; an unmarked subject in the wider international catalogue should not automatically be treated as an English programme.

### How long is the programme?

The university’s same-major undergraduate profile states a four-year programme and an economics bachelor award, 经济学学士. The current international brochure identifies the English bachelor route. No BSc, Honours or foreign dual-degree award is inferred, and a separate domestic overseas-transfer scheme is not part of this listing.

### Do I need Chinese language evidence?

The new undergraduate checklist asks for HSK 4 and HSKK intermediate, or the stated language test after enrolment. The English programme label does not create an exemption from that checklist. Confirm the exact application and later test arrangements directly; no universal Chinese graduation score is inferred.

### Which entrance examination results are required?

The current undergraduate checklist requires a CSCA transcript. It does not establish exact subject papers, paper language or minimum score for the English trade route. Confirm those points and the result-submission deadline with the university before booking tests. Graduate applications have a separate checklist.

### What English score is required?

The route is expressly taught in English, but the current brochure does not provide a programme-specific numeric English threshold for this undergraduate route. Confirm accepted certificates and assessment directly. Do not borrow a score or English-medium waiver from another programme or an older republication.

### What age and nationality rules apply?

The general minimum age is 16. Applicants under 18 provide guardian identity and authorisation documents. Former Chinese citizens applying after acquiring foreign nationality must meet the guide’s four-year foreign-nationality and two-years-overseas-in-four-years conditions; confirm the exact reference dates and accepted evidence for the current cycle.

### What academic documents do I prepare?

Prepare notarised high-school graduation or expected-graduation evidence, notarised transcripts of all high-school courses, the required language certificates and the entrance-examination transcript. Upload scans, with official Chinese translations for non-Chinese materials as instructed. The university can request further evidence or programme assessment.

### What personal and financial documents apply?

Prepare the passport, health form within six months, police certificate, photo, financial sponsor letter and identity, and affairs-in-China guarantor letter and identity. Degree applicants provide bank evidence equivalent to CNY 30,000 or above; confirm the exact boundary and format. Passport validity must extend more than six months beyond the study end. Add employment and under-18 guardian records where applicable.

### What are the tuition and extra charges?

The 2026 English undergraduate tuition reference is CNY 18,000 per year. The CNY 400 application charge is payable at registration. Insurance is CNY 800/year or CNY 400/half-year, and textbooks CNY 200–300/semester. Confirm the next schedule and admission payment instructions; quoted health or immigration service charges do not guarantee future costs.

### What accommodation is described?

The brochure lists standard twin rooms at CNY 40 per person per day, with a bed, storage, private bathroom, Wi-Fi and refrigerator. Shared facilities include laundry, hot water and a kitchen. Confirm room assignment, present facilities and the exact booked period rather than assuming a yearly charge or guaranteed availability.

### Are scholarships guaranteed?

The brochure describes the university’s experience receiving Chinese Government, international Chinese teachers’ and Shandong provincial scholarship students. It does not establish an automatic award or a specific funding entitlement for this English trade route. Confirm the relevant current call, subject coverage, nationality conditions and selection process separately.

### When can I apply?

The brochure headed autumn 2026 gives an annual May 1–June 10 application window and late-August registration, with an August 31 opening and September semester reference. These standing dates are not a confirmed 2027 call. Obtain the next exact intake, deadline and registration instructions directly before relying on a date or booking travel.

### How does the application assessment work?

Apply through the official international portal and complete the basic information review. Degree applicants proceed to the academic school’s programme assessment and may be asked for supplementary materials or an interview. If admitted, register according to the official instructions. Confirm teaching and residence locations with the university rather than inferring them from the international office address.
