## Admissions

Choose the exact programme, English route and academic school through the official application system. Current catalogue conditions, central entry requirements and the final admission notice apply together.


## Why students choose it

- A public university with a documented history in business education and a broad academic portfolio.
- Current English programme tables identify the exact school, qualification, annual tuition and duration.
- Programmes span business, hospitality, law, computing, languages, statistics and international trade.

## Things to consider

- Law, Accounting and Finance English UG classes have specific minimum cohort conditions; admission to a listed route does not guarantee that a class will open.
- English-taught degrees still carry Chinese-proficiency graduation requirements: generally HSK 4 for UG and HSK 3 for PG, separate from entry evidence.
- Philosophy is explicitly bilingual with Chinese classroom placement, and Advertising is closed; both are held from this English portfolio.

## Best fit for

- Applicants comparing English routes in business, trade, finance, hospitality, languages, computing or law.
- Students willing to develop the required Chinese proficiency during an English-taught degree.
- Applicants who will confirm cohort opening, supervisor requirements and official registration arrangements.

## Campus and city

The College of International Education’s admission and student-service offices are at Xiasha Campus, 18 Xuezheng Street, Hangzhou. The official university introduction describes a broad academic portfolio and international cooperation with universities and research institutions. Admission, scholarship and campus-life enquiries have separate office functions. Confirm the programme’s actual teaching school and venue in the offer rather than treating an admissions-office address as every class location.

The published international admissions address is at Xiasha’s higher-education area in Hangzhou, on Xuezheng Street. Students should identify their actual school and teaching venue before booking housing or planning a commute. The English programme catalogues name the academic school but do not provide a universal campus allocation for every route and cohort. The university’s profile traces its history to 1911 and describes economics, management, law, literature, science, engineering and other fields. Its broad institutional identity is separate from the smaller set of current international English admissions. A campus photograph or an international-office address is useful orientation, but does not prove where a particular programme’s complete timetable will take place.

The source tables distinguish a major from its study focus. Law carries International Law; Hospitality Management carries International Hospitality Management; Finance carries International Finance; International Trade carries Digital Trade. These focuses remain within their parent programmes rather than being counted as additional awards. The graduate statistics entry combines Financial Statistics, Risk Management and Insurance Actuarial in a single programme and prints a Master of Economics award. Applicants should compare that combined scope with a dedicated actuarial or risk qualification elsewhere. Business Administration is printed as Master of Management Science, not automatically an MBA because the academic school includes “MBA” in its name. The university’s official introduction describes extensive international academic partnerships. Those institutional links do not guarantee a foreign double degree, paid internship or placement in every supported route. Choose the exact qualification, language, duration and class arrangement that matches the intended academic plan.


## Hostel, food and safety

The 2026 central guide quotes double rooms at CNY 650 per person per month and quad rooms at CNY 300 per person per month, subject to the accommodation available at registration. The reservation page lists private bathrooms and public kitchen/laundry for its double-room category, plus a CNY 800/person deposit; a quad-room category has a CNY 500/person deposit. The undated reservation page gives quad CNY 250/month; the dated 2026 guide’s CNY 300 reference controls here. Confirm current category, deposits, utilities and contract period. Off-campus accommodation requires the university’s application/approval process and residence-registration arrangements; room prices are not an unconditional housing guarantee.

The official accommodation reservation page lists public kitchens for the described room categories. This supports a practical question about access to cooking facilities, not a promise that every room or building has identical arrangements. Confirm kitchen access, food storage, current dining options and any specialist dietary needs with the assigned housing office. The reviewed sources do not establish universal allergy-safe, halal or vegetarian meal guarantees.

The university’s accommodation rules include cooking and fire-safety responsibilities and an approval process for off-campus housing. Follow the assigned building’s current rules and residence-registration instructions. The College of International Education issues the official admission notices and warns about fraudulent information. No crime-rate claim or blanket safety guarantee is made.

The official admissions contact is admissionzjsu@163.com. The College of International Education handles international admission notices; separate contacts cover current-student scholarships, visas and campus life. Students Traffic can help compare public programme information and prepare university questions. The university controls admission, class opening, scholarships and final arrangements; no agency appointment is implied.


## Frequently asked questions

### Which English undergraduate routes are supported?

International Business, Law with an International Law focus, Accounting, Hospitality Management with an international focus, E-commerce, Logistics Management and Finance with an International Finance focus. Each is four years in the current 2026 international catalogue. Philosophy is not included as an English-only route because the row explicitly says Chinese/English with Chinese classroom placement.

### Which English masters are supported?

Business Administration, Computer Science and Technology, Tourism Management, Linguistics and Applied Linguistics in Foreign Languages, English Language and Literature, the combined Financial Statistics/Risk Management/Insurance Actuarial programme, and International Trade with a Digital Trade focus. The combined statistics programme and named focuses are not split into additional awards.

### What qualifications are awarded?

The source prints exact qualification forms, including Bachelor of Management, Bachelor of Economics, Bachelor of Law, Master of Engineering, Master of Economics and Master of Art. International Business UG and Business Administration PG use Management Science wording. That wording is preserved without inventing B.Sc., M.Sc., Honours or MBA abbreviations.

### How long are the programmes?

All supported English UG routes are four years. Computer Science and Technology master is three years; International Trade is two years. The other current English masters are 2.5 years. These are exact programme-table values, not minima chosen from a range.

### Are there minimum cohort sizes?

Yes. Law’s English class requires a minimum of 20 students. Accounting does not open below 15. Finance says 10人以上开班, meaning a cohort of at least 10. Applicants should confirm class opening before making travel or financial commitments; these conditions are retained with the individual offering.

### What English evidence is needed?

The central guide gives UG minimums IELTS 5.5, TOEFL 80 or Duolingo 90; PG minimums IELTS 6.0, TOEFL 80 or Duolingo 100. Native English status or accepted proof of previous English-medium study can apply under university review. TOEFL ITP scores are not accepted.

### Do I need CSCA?

The 2026/27 undergraduate rule requires valid CSCA results in principle, and each supported English UG row specifies Mathematics. Do not infer test-paper language merely from the programme teaching language. The current master catalogue expressly says master applicants do not need CSCA.

### Does English teaching remove Chinese requirements?

No. The central graduation section requires Chinese proficiency at least Level 4 for foreign-language-taught UG degrees, generally an HSK 4 certificate. Postgraduate degrees require at least Level 3, generally HSK 3. These are graduation conditions rather than a blanket Chinese-language entry requirement for the supported English routes.

### What do master applicants prepare?

The central list includes degree/transcripts, accepted English evidence, CV, study plan or personal statement, two full/associate-professor references with signatures and contact details, and in principle a supervisor provisional-acceptance form. Published research is supplied if available. Confirm any exception to the supervisor-form requirement directly.

### What are the tuition and other costs?

Current supported UG tuition is CNY 18,000/year. Master Computer Science and Technology is CNY 28,000/year; other supported English masters are CNY 25,000/year. Application CNY 400 is non-refundable; insurance is referenced at CNY 800/year. Books, housing and personal costs are additional. Later-intake charges require confirmation.

### What should I know about accommodation?

The central guide quotes double rooms CNY 650/person/month and quads CNY 300/person/month, subject to actual housing at registration. The reservation page lists category-specific facilities, deposits and separate water/electricity. Confirm the assigned room, campus, availability and period; do not turn a monthly rate into an invented annual guarantee.

### What are the dates and document-timing caveats?

The published regular 2026 window was March–15 June, with scholarship applications recommended before 1 May. Those dates are past. Registration was late August or early September as specified in the offer. Expected graduates must confirm final-degree timing: the Chinese guide says before the official admission notice, while English says before registration.

### Who decides admission and checks nationality?

The College of International Education is the university’s international admission authority and issues formal admission notices. It reviews nationality under MOE No. 12 (2020), with extra documents for former-Chinese and relevant overseas-born Chinese-parent cases. The guide quotes broad nationality/residence wording; applicants should confirm applicability to their own case rather than rely on a blanket assumption.
