kdavid Posted March 10, 2011 at 01:10 PM Report Share Posted March 10, 2011 at 01:10 PM Has anyone had any issues in getting confirmation that they're application package has been received by the embassies they've mailed it to? The day I handed my stuff over to DHL I sent the PRC Embassy in DC an email notifying them of the shipment, as well as providing the tracking number. When I confirmed the package had arrived at the embassy and been signed for, I sent a follow up asking them to kindly confirm they've received it. This was several days ago, and I've still yet to receive a response. Perhaps I'm being overly optimistic in assuming that Chinese abroad would be as well organized and expedient as a typical western company would be. If the Chinese working at the embassy are anything like those here on the mainland, I probably won't receive a response. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
New Members Agnes Posted March 11, 2011 at 03:49 AM New Members Report Share Posted March 11, 2011 at 03:49 AM Ni Hao! My name is Agnes from Jakarta. I just signed into this forum, thanks to Josephine from Manila. Currently I have been trying to apply for the Chinese language training, the Chinese Government Scholarship program by the China Scholarship Council. It is extremely difficult to contact this CSC and its dispatching authorities in Jakarta and Beijing. I have been contacting them without results. All my emails and calls to the Chinese Embassy in Jakarta and Indonesian Embassy in Beijing were ignored. At present, I don't know when is the Indonesian deadline and what postal address for sending my application package. If those dispatching authorities can not be identified, can I simply send my application to CSC directly? Or would it be useless? (because i read in the guidelines: individual application will not be considered by CSC) What is CSC address? Because in the net, I found two different office addresses for CSC. One is No. 160 Fuxingmennei Street, Beijing 100031, P.R.China, the other one is Level 13, Building A3 No.9 Chegongzhuang Avenue Beijing, P.R.C, Postcode:100044. Which one is the correct one? So confusing... Hoping for some enlightments. Looking forward to hear from you soon. Sincerely, agnes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madik Posted March 11, 2011 at 06:04 AM Report Share Posted March 11, 2011 at 06:04 AM @Agnes If you are already in Beijing, you can call the CSC office. I actually talked to one of the representatives a couple of days ago. However, be prepared to call them as many as twenty times and you might not get the answer you want. When my friend from France went down to the office, the CSC asked her to call the Chinese Embassy in France. You would be better off to ask another Indonesian on scholarship from last year. There is no point of sending your application directly to CSC since they don't accept the individual application. A friend of mine actually went to the office last semester so the office actually exists. However, I am not sure which one is the correct one. I thought there was only one at Chegongzhuang Avenue. Hope this helps. @kdavid I don't think they would send you a confirmation email. I sent an email to a person-in-charge and kindly asked him whether he received mine or not.

kdavid Posted March 11, 2011 at 07:14 AM Report Share Posted March 11, 2011 at 07:14 AM @madik That's what I did. I sent an email after I saw it had been signed for asking for confirmation. No response yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meipie Posted March 11, 2011 at 12:41 PM Report Share Posted March 11, 2011 at 12:41 PM @agnes did you call to the chinese embassy? when? i called them last week and they pick up my phone and answered all my question, even though they always said that they're very busy.. fyi, the deadline is April 30th, that's what they told me last week on the phone.. hope it helps~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
New Members Agnes Posted March 11, 2011 at 02:08 PM New Members Report Share Posted March 11, 2011 at 02:08 PM Dear Meipi and all, Thanks for the immediate responses. Yes, I have been calling the Chinese Embassy in Jakarta for the past three weeks (calling from Spore). There was one time that someone answered my call, only to tell me: call tomorrow to this number, ask for Mr Chen. But after that, the next time I called the Embassy again, nobody pick the phone. Btw, what is the phone number that you dialled, Meipi? Ohya, I am in Spore at the moment. So, I'm preparing my application from Spore. That's why I need to make sure WHEN is the Indonesia's deadline and WHO is the person in charge at the Embassy so that I can directly post my application to him/ her. Anybody willing to kindly share WHO is the person in charge (at Chinese Embassy in Jakarta) for receiving the Chinese Government Scholarship application? I dont know any Indonesian CGS recipient, at the moment, can somebody introduce me to one... I'm a bit desperate here... Hoping for more enlightment... Thanks so much, Agnes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meipie Posted March 13, 2011 at 09:26 AM Report Share Posted March 13, 2011 at 09:26 AM @agnes when i called i'm talking to mr.Chen or mr.Zhen (i can't hear clearly) myself.. and he's the one who told me, do not mention his name when sending the application. so, i consider that as, he's the person in charge there, because everytime i called he's the one who picking up my call. just send it to the culture office of chinese embassy back here in jakarta without to who attention name. just follow their rules i think.. can i ask you whether you notarized the transcript and ur diploma? well, you know, back here in jakarta notarized some papers it cost a lot money.. ^^ where did u graduates from?

Brian US Posted March 14, 2011 at 11:59 PM Author Report Share Posted March 14, 2011 at 11:59 PM @billz It is possible that New Zealand does not offer direct scholarships through the CSC. You should look into other options like the Confucius Institute or call universities in China directly. Unless you arrange plans beforehand, a university will not take a direct application. Keep in mind that the deadlines are almost up, so you may not have any luck this year. Good luck to those who already applied. The waiting game begins. If it makes everyone feel better, I had to wait until the end of July to get my acceptance. Apparently I was of only TWO Americans they hadn't decided on yet.

Vuong Moc Posted March 15, 2011 at 11:52 AM Report Share Posted March 15, 2011 at 11:52 AM Does anyone have full list of agency number for al universities in China? I saw the available list but cannot find some. For e.g: Nanjing shifan da xue, Wuhan shifan da xue. Without agency number I cannot complete online registration Thank you very much Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian US Posted March 16, 2011 at 06:02 AM Author Report Share Posted March 16, 2011 at 06:02 AM Without agency number I cannot complete online registration What country are you applying to? You should use that country's agency code. For EU applicants, what are you guys putting for the agency number in the online application? Are you doing your home country or the university?

madik Posted March 16, 2011 at 03:07 PM Report Share Posted March 16, 2011 at 03:07 PM @billz different regions have different deadlines. for example, most of embassies in Canada had the deadline of end of December, 2010. (some had it till the beginning of February) I talked to people from the Pacific Islands, they all told me their deadline last year was the end of April. However, things might have changed this year so you better find someone from your country to make sure everything will be sent on time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
