Ufadhili wa China, umeelezwa
Njia sita za ufadhili kusoma nchini China, kutoka CSC hadi vyuo vikuu na Confucius.
Ufadhili wa CSC, njia ya ubalozi
Programu ya pande mbili ya China Scholarship Council kupitia ubalozi au wizara yako. Mara nyingi inalipwa kikamilifu: ada, makazi, bima na posho ya kila mwezi.
Ufadhili wa CSC, njia ya chuo kikuu
Omba moja kwa moja kwa chuo kikuu cha China kinachokuteua kwa CSC. Inafaa ikiwa una shule lengwa na unaweza kuwasilisha mapema.
Silk Road / Belt & Road
Programu ndogo kwa nchi washirika wa Belt and Road. Mara nyingi kupitia vyuo vinavyoshiriki, ikijumuisha masomo na wakati mwingine mwaka wa lugha ya Kichina.
Ufadhili wa serikali za mitaa
Ufadhili kutoka majimbo na manispaa (Beijing, Shanghai, Jiangsu, Zhejiang…). Chanjo ya sehemu au kamili kulingana na jiji.
Ufadhili wa vyuo vikuu
Tuzo zinazofadhiliwa na chuo mwenyeji: ubora wa kitaaluma, ombi la mapema au uwanja wa masomo. Mara nyingi zinapatikana zaidi kuliko CSC kwa baadhi ya wasifu.
Confucius / mwaka wa lugha ya Kichina
Ufadhili unaozingatia lugha ya Kichina (HSK) na utamaduni, daraja la kawaida kabla ya bachelor au master’s nchini China.
Ofa zilizo wazi nchini China
