The best application period for China universities

The best application period for China universities

Full-time universities' academic year in China normally contains two semesters, Spring semester and Autumn semester,except for a few ones implementing 3-semester system. The first semester starts on autumn of each year, requiring fully submission of materials between late February and late July of that year; and the second starts on spring, receivingmaterials between late October and late January starting from the previous year to the current year. But the dates are generally set, hence, it is important to figure out every university’s specific application deadline for each semester,and when it comes to those universities of 3-semester system, it becomes more significant.
