Adil Posted July 18, 2012 at 02:51 PM Report Share Posted July 18, 2012 at 02:51 PM @effeeali They've been telling me the same thing, first it was end of july but now they say we might have to wait till start of august. Anxiously waiting. Have you received any emails directly from universities? I also applied to peking, the other two choices were tsinghua and shanghai jiao tong. i havnt received any word from them.

peiwenlian Posted July 18, 2012 at 03:00 PM Report Share Posted July 18, 2012 at 03:00 PM Also @ wwx I've been accepted into a one year language + 3 year history masters course at Renmin. I too am wondering whether this first year of language study is covered. The admissions letter wasn't particularly clear on that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TYF Posted July 18, 2012 at 04:34 PM Report Share Posted July 18, 2012 at 04:34 PM This scholarship is so frustrating, the third party organisation that pre selected me from my country (early april) havent heard any word from the chinesse embassy, its almost august and we r supposed to be in china the first week of september, they expect that in less than a month, we buy a ticket to china, quit our jobs, cancel all the services you pay in your home country, say good bye to ur friends and family. Pretty much changing ur whole life in less than a month(so little time for this). At this point i really dont know what would i do if i get accepted.

And I thought the embassy rejected my scholarship application so I was really surprised when they called me today. I haven't known which university I will attend (I'm majoring Chinese Literature) but they told me the college prep will be held @ beijing. So, hello guys!

Irvin Alberto Posted July 18, 2012 at 09:40 PM Report Share Posted July 18, 2012 at 09:40 PM Hi I send a e-mail to OAS and said me: "Thank you for your interest in our scholarships. We have not yet received the results from the Government of China; therefore the date for publishing this information has been moved to late July or early August." The date was late June or early July. I think that the system used by CSC is so disordered. We have less of a month for buy ticket, say good-bye, to get a VISA........... be psychologically ready ...

Five_Elements Posted July 18, 2012 at 10:01 PM Report Share Posted July 18, 2012 at 10:01 PM Wohoo! Got an email yesterday saying I got it. 1) What is your native country? U.S. 2) Where did you apply? The Chinese Embassy in Washington D.C. 3) When did you apply? April 2012 4) When was the deadline? Not sure? 5) Have you applied for the scholarship before? Yes, I received the scholarship in 2009, but turned it down to pursue other opportunities. 6) What program did you apply for? One year language program. 7) What schools did you put for your preferences? 1. Shanghai Jiaotong University 2. Fudan University 3.

From my family doctor. NOTE: I did not get the chest x-ray for TB, nor did I get the EKG. My physician simply noted on the form that I have no signs of TB or heart problems. 11) How did you get your documents notarized? From a local shop that does that, passport photos, etc. NOTE: What I had done basically said that the docs I sent to the CSC were true photocopies of the original documents (med form, proof of graduation, etc.), not some other kind of fancy official thing. 12) Where do you get official Chinese red stamps? Uh, what? 13) Were you accepted for the scholarship, if you were not then why? I was accepted for the scholarship starting September 2012. 14) How were you notified? By e-mail 15) When were you accepted/rejected? Accepted July 17 2012 16) What school and program were you accepted to? Not sure yet. They said I'd find out when they sent me my visa forms, etc. Anyone know if we're actually going to get more than 1400RMB for the stipend? I remember someone mentioned that.

Brian US Posted July 19, 2012 at 02:54 AM Author Report Share Posted July 19, 2012 at 02:54 AM Again, congrats to the new winners of the scholarship, quick reminder that this topic is for CSC scholarship discussion only. For specific discussion on schools and their programs, spend some time on this forum and look into the sub-forums for these schools. Posts about travel to China, school programs, other sholarships or acceptances, and school rankings will be removed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
