Opportunities within The Confucius Institute
Article
We support our students in applying for a range scholarships to fund study abroad opportunities in China. These are a selection of some of the scholarships available to students.
Confucius Institute Scholarship
The Confucius Institute Scholarship aims to foster Chinese language learning and facilitate the promotion of Chinese language and culture. The scholarship covers tuition fees, accommodation costs and living expenses during the scholarship holder's time studying at the host institution in China.
Eligibility
The Confucius Institute scholarship supports outstanding students recommended by Confucius Institutes to study in universities in China.
Students are required to show their dedication to the study of Chinese language and culture and must, therefore, meet several scholarship criteria (released shortly before online applications open each year) including successfully passing Hanyu Shuiping Kaoshi (HSK) examinations.
Beijing Municipal Government Scholarship
The Beijing Municipal Government Scholarship, otherwise known as the Freshman Scholarship, is funded by Beijing Municipal Government. The scholarship aims to fully or partially fund tuition fees for international students studying in Beijing.
Eligibility
This scholarship is given to students who have proven their diligence in their studies and is, therefore, dependant upon attendance and grades.
Students are only eligible for this scholarship if they are not currently in receipt of a scholarship issued by Beijing Municipal Government or Hanban.
Application & Registration
During our undergraduate students' year abroad and for graduated students studying for an additional year in China, we work with one of our partner universities (Capital Normal University) to apply for this scholarship on your behalf, therefore, it is not necessary to make individual applications for this scholarship.
