Study Programs for Graduates
Study programs for graduates in China, as far as this page can honestly go, start from a completed bachelor’s degree and a school’s own master’s rules. The concrete window opened here is 清华大学经济管理学院’s 2027 page. DragonTrail does not admit graduates.
Information checked 29 October 2026 (Asia/Shanghai).
That 清华大学 page was released in September 2026 and was read on 29 October 2026. Round 1 was still printed as open through 15 December 2026 at 17:00 China Standard Time. It is one faculty’s pre-experience master’s file, not a national graduate calendar and not an employer.
At a Glance
| Who This Is For | A graduate who can hold a bachelor’s degree before 清华大学’s 2027 registration. |
|---|---|
| Who Should Look Elsewhere | A second-year bachelor’s student, or someone seeking a job rather than a degree. This page is not an employer. |
| Clock | Round 1 was still printed as open on 29 October 2026, closing 15 December 2026 at 17:00 China Standard Time. |
| Money | 800 RMB to apply. 198,000 RMB for Master of Finance. 30,000 RMB a year for Master in Management. 清华大学’s figures only. |
| Who Decides | 清华大学经济管理学院 reviews the file and interviews. The consulate later stamps a visa. DragonTrail does not sit on the panel. |
| Papers | Degree proof, transcripts, statements, and the language evidence that program listed. HSK 5 at 180 is one of those lines, with school-controlled exemptions. |
| Easy to Mix Up | The Columbia track’s TOEFL line prints both 5.5 and 100. This page does not turn 5.5 into a TOEFL score. |
| Worked Example | A graduate applying in November 2026 is inside the printed round 1. A reader who waits until the winter break should expect slower verification, not a closed system. |
| What We Do Not Do | DragonTrail does not file the application, waive a test, or promise a scholarship. |
Who This Route Fits
Study Programs for Graduates is for a reader who already holds a bachelor’s degree, or will hold one before 2027 registration, and wants to know what one named faculty actually printed. It is not a page for a student who is still two years from graduation. DragonTrail does not enroll this reader and does not set an age or a start date.
Read alongside that fit, Study Programs for Graduates still has to obey the office that printed the limit below. 清华大学经济管理学院’s 2027 pre-experience master’s page, released September 2026, requires a bachelor’s degree or an equivalent before registration. The final deadline is 26 February 2027 at 17:00 China Standard Time. Round 1 runs through 15 December 2026 at 17:00. On 29 October 2026 that round had not closed. Round 2 starts 1 January 2027 at 08:00. A Shenzhen finance third round runs from 27 February 2027 to 15 May 2027. The application fee is 800 RMB and is not refundable. This is a degree window, not a DragonTrail intake.
- Confirm the bachelor’s degree date before the round.
- A job search is a different conversation.
What the Printed Rules Say
The rule that actually constrains Study Programs for Graduates is narrower than a brochure. The page requires a bachelor’s degree or an equivalent before registration, and it says a missing degree by the 2027 registration date makes the admission invalid. Former Chinese citizens face a six-year nationality clock counted to 30 April of the enrollment year. That clock is this faculty’s, and it is not 北京语言大学’s four-year test. A line from a different office is not copied onto this reader.
Where Study Programs for Graduates cites a number, the number stops at the page it came from. 北京语言大学’s undergraduate page prints a four-year foreign passport or nationality test and two years of actual residence abroad in the last four, counted to 30 April of the enrollment year, with nine months counting as a year, for some applicants with a Chinese parent. 清华大学’s 2027 master’s page prints a different clock for former Chinese citizens: six years by 30 April of the enrollment year. The desks do not match. DragonTrail does not merge them.
- The six-year nationality clock is 清华大学’s sentence for former Chinese citizens.
- Do not swap in another school’s four-year test.
Time and the Visa Split
The clock for Study Programs for Graduates is the stay length and the school’s own window, not a season label. Final deadline 26 February 2027 at 17:00 China Standard Time. Round 1 through 15 December 2026 at 17:00 was still in the future on the review date. Round 2 opens 1 January 2027 at 08:00. The winter break of 21 January to 17 February 2027 keeps the system up but may slow verification. These are application times, not class-start times. A date that has already passed stays passed.
Timing on Study Programs for Graduates does not create an intake DragonTrail can open. 清华大学’s 2027 master’s page prints a winter break from 21 January 2027 to 17 February 2027. The application system stays available, and online verification may be delayed, so the page suggests applying two or three weeks early. That is a break in a degree application, not a winter course. 北京语言大学’s language grid has no winter month.
- 17:00 China Standard Time is the printed close, not midnight elsewhere.
- Winter break slows checks. It does not erase the deadline.
Fees That Belong to a School
Money on Study Programs for Graduates is whatever the named school printed in RMB, if it printed anything. Application fee 800 RMB, not refundable, and not covered by the Chinese Government Scholarship according to the page. Master of Finance is 198,000 RMB for the full program. Master in Management is 30,000 RMB a year. Insurance is 800 RMB a year. Beijing dorms are 40 or 30 RMB a bed a day. No stipend yuan was printed. DragonTrail does not add a fee of its own.
Any yuan figure named for Study Programs for Graduates stays on the school’s list. On that 清华大学 page, Master of Finance tuition is 198,000 RMB for the full program and Master in Management is 30,000 RMB a year. The Tsinghua phase of the Columbia dual degree is 30,000 RMB a year. Insurance is 800 RMB a year. A Beijing double is 40 RMB a bed a day and a triple is 30 RMB. A full Chinese Government Scholarship is described as usually covering tuition, housing or a subsidy, a stipend, and insurance, but no stipend amount is printed, so none is repeated here.
- The 800 RMB fee is not refundable and is not paid by the scholarship, on this page’s own words.
- No stipend amount was printed, so none is invented.
Papers and Who Decides
Papers for Study Programs for Graduates come from the school and, if a visa is needed, from the consulate. A personal statement and CV in Chinese and English, degree certificate, transcript, and the language evidence that program asks for. Master of Finance and Master in Management name HSK 5 at 180, with exemptions the school itself must allow. The Columbia track’s printed TOEFL line mixes 5.5 and 100, so 5.5 is not treated as a confirmed TOEFL score. This site does not issue either document.
Documents discussed for Study Programs for Graduates are examples of what an office asked for, not a pack we issue. Article 45 of 教育部、外交部、公安部令第42号 counts short study as no more than 180 days, including the 180th day, and long study as more than 180 days. The Sweden embassy note dated 2026/10/12 uses the same split for an X2 visa and an X1 visa. An X1 holder applies for a residence permit within 30 days of entry. The consular officer decides the category. A season name does not.
- HSK 5 at 180 is a program line with exemptions only the school can grant.
- Ignore the stray 5.5 on the TOEFL line.
What to Do Next
The useful next step after Study Programs for Graduates is a question to the school, then a look at the neighboring routes. Readers still earning the bachelor’s degree belong on Study Programs for University Students. The date table is on Program Intake Calendar. Neither button on this page reserves a seat.
Before acting on Study Programs for Graduates, keep the following boundary in view. Article 9 lists degree study as junior college, bachelor’s, master’s, and doctoral, and non-degree study as preparatory, advanced students, and research scholars. Article 12 says the school checks qualifications and financial support, may test the applicant, and decides admission. Someone who misses the school’s conditions is not admitted. DragonTrail is not that office.
- Put the dates on the intake calendar, not in an email from DragonTrail.
- Request Guidance does not mean a place is reserved.

- 北京语言大学 international undergraduate entry page. Age printed there: 18 to 55. Under 18 needs the school’s consent and a guardianship notary. Starred majors: March and September entry. Other majors: September only. March 2026 deadline printed as 12 January 2026. The English page also prints “If enrolled in September 2025, deadline of application: JUNE 30, 2026,” which mixes a 2025 label with a 2026 date. Both of those dates had passed on the read date. Application fee 800 RMB, non-refundable. Sample tuition on that page: 25,800, 27,600, or 39,000 RMB a year, by program. From the Fall Semester of 2026, undergraduate international applicants must submit CSCA results. This is 北京语言大学’s desk, not a DragonTrail rule. — retrieved 29 October 2026 (Asia/Shanghai)
FAQ
Does DragonTrail set an eligibility rule for graduates?
No. The page requires a bachelor’s degree or an equivalent before registration, and it says a missing degree by the 2027 registration date makes the admission invalid. Former Chinese citizens face a six-year nationality clock counted to 30 April of the enrollment year. That clock is this faculty’s, and it is not 北京语言大学’s four-year test. The school decides who it admits. DragonTrail does not publish a substitute age, degree bar, or start date for Study Programs for Graduates.
Which age or status line was actually printed for graduates?
Only the lines named on this page. The page requires a bachelor’s degree or an equivalent before registration, and it says a missing degree by the 2027 registration date makes the admission invalid. Former Chinese citizens face a six-year nationality clock counted to 30 April of the enrollment year. That clock is this faculty’s, and it is not 北京语言大学’s four-year test. If a provider’s brochure is silent, this page stays silent too. Nothing here is a DragonTrail cutoff.
What does a stay’s length mean for graduates?
Final deadline 26 February 2027 at 17:00 China Standard Time. Round 1 through 15 December 2026 at 17:00 was still in the future on the review date. Round 2 opens 1 January 2027 at 08:00. The winter break of 21 January to 17 February 2027 keeps the system up but may slow verification. These are application times, not class-start times. Article 45 of 令第42号 still splits short and long study at 180 days, including the 180th day. The embassy, not this page, chooses X1 or X2.
Were any intakes open for graduates on 29 October 2026?
Final deadline 26 February 2027 at 17:00 China Standard Time. Round 1 through 15 December 2026 at 17:00 was still in the future on the review date. Round 2 opens 1 January 2027 at 08:00. The winter break of 21 January to 17 February 2027 keeps the system up but may slow verification. These are application times, not class-start times. DragonTrail does not run an intake of its own. A window that had passed is not described as open, and a window that was still printed as open belongs to the university that printed it.
Are the fees on this page a DragonTrail price for graduates?
No. Application fee 800 RMB, not refundable, and not covered by the Chinese Government Scholarship according to the page. Master of Finance is 198,000 RMB for the full program. Master in Management is 30,000 RMB a year. Insurance is 800 RMB a year. Beijing dorms are 40 or 30 RMB a bed a day. No stipend yuan was printed. Article 14 says a higher-education school prices its own items in RMB. DragonTrail does not add a rate card beside that list.
Who issues the papers for graduates?
A personal statement and CV in Chinese and English, degree certificate, transcript, and the language evidence that program asks for. Master of Finance and Master in Management name HSK 5 at 180, with exemptions the school itself must allow. The Columbia track’s printed TOEFL line mixes 5.5 and 100, so 5.5 is not treated as a confirmed TOEFL score. An admission notice, a JW form, and an invitation come from the school or the inviter. The consular officer decides the visa category. DragonTrail issues none of them.
What should someone ask before paying for graduates?
Ask the school whether the age line, the guardian rule, the teaching weeks, and the refund rule apply to this person. Application fee 800 RMB, not refundable, and not covered by the Chinese Government Scholarship according to the page. Master of Finance is 198,000 RMB for the full program. Master in Management is 30,000 RMB a year. Insurance is 800 RMB a year. Beijing dorms are 40 or 30 RMB a bed a day. No stipend yuan was printed.
