Applying to
universities
in China

Yes. Chinese universities admit international school-leavers to undergraduate programmes, but each university sets its own requirements for the qualification, the academic results, the subjects studied and the language of the programme. We check the conditions of specific programmes before the list is built.

Yes. A number of universities offer English-taught programmes at different levels of study. What is available, and on what terms, depends on the individual university and the field, so the search begins with the current list of programmes.

Not for English-taught programmes: there, the language requirement is whatever proof of English the programme asks for. For Chinese-taught programmes a university may require proof of proficiency, such as HSK, and the level needed depends on the programme. Some Chinese helps in daily life in any case.

The typical categories are academic records, the school-leaving certificate or degree, proof of language, the passport, and — where the programme asks for them — a CV, a personal statement and recommendations. The exact set is defined by the individual university and programme.

From the applicant’s profile, not from a list of familiar names. We check which programmes are formally open, weigh academic fit, language, selectivity, cost and the funding available, and arrange the options by level of selectivity into one strategy.

Funding opportunities exist: the government scholarship programme, university scholarships and other schemes. Each has its own criteria, its own procedure and its own deadlines, and the decision rests with the awarding body. We assess the options while the universities are being chosen, and we do not promise an outcome.

Yes, and it is the usual strategy. Universities run their own portals, requirements and deadlines, so parallel applications are planned in advance and brought into a single calendar.

As a rule of thumb, about a year before the course begins — and earlier where language preparation or a scholarship application is involved, since some funding competitions run to their own, earlier deadlines.

Yes. We assemble the set of documents to each programme’s requirements, strengthen the supporting materials, coordinate the recommendations, and manage submission and correspondence through the universities’ applicant portals.

Yes. Once an offer of admission is in hand we support the visa stage: the procedure in the particular country, the documents required, the proof of funds and the submission deadlines. The decision rests with the consulate, so what we are responsible for is the quality of the application, not the outcome.

Yes. China can be one of two education systems in a single strategy: the routes are planned in parallel and the requirements and deadlines are brought into one calendar. Our two-country support format exists for exactly this scenario.

No, and nor can anyone else: admission is decided by the university’s admissions committee and the visa is issued by the consulate. EDMONT is responsible for what lies within our control: the strategy, the choice of programmes, the quality of the application and meeting the requirements and deadlines. Promises of “guaranteed admission” do not appear in our materials.
