Registration must be completed online no later than 1 p.m. on January 16.
The program offers scholarships in six categories: one year of Chinese language studies, bachelor’s degrees, specializations, master’s degrees, doctoral degrees, and research stays. Instruction will be in person at higher education institutions in China, and scholarships last from one to four years, depending on the academic level.
