The current guide gives a food-budget reference of approximately CNY 1,000–1,500 per month. Treat this as a planning estimate and confirm dining choices and specific dietary needs at the assigned campus. The published tuition and room tariffs do not establish an included meal plan or universal access to particular food preparation facilities.
International students must purchase medical insurance, with the current annual reference CNY 800. Applications include the prescribed health examination and recent police or permitted school-conduct evidence. Confirm coverage, arrival procedures and any further health checks in the enrolment instructions, and follow the university’s official fee-payment guidance.
The Admissions Office handles new international enrolment and scholarship assessment. The Overseas Students Affairs Office supports registration and student administration, including housing and insurance enquiries; academic units handle programme-specific teaching matters. Students Traffic can help compare public information and prepare questions for the official process, while the university determines admission and allocation.
