Agriculture and Food Science

Agriculture and food science in China, for an international bachelor’s, means the major 中国农业大学 prints for that intake, not a farm DragonTrail can place you on. The English notice posted 3 September 2026 sets one international tuition of 20,000 RMB a year, an application fee of 400 RMB that is not refundable, and a window from 1 November 2026 to 31 May 2027. On 29 October 2026 that window had not opened.

Information checked 29 October 2026 (Asia/Shanghai).

DragonTrail has no agriculture quota and no food-science laboratory. The notice names nine first-class disciplines, including Food Science and Engineering, Crop Science, and Agricultural Engineering. Those are labels. Enrollment majors sit in a spreadsheet, 2027年度来华留学生本科生招生专业信息1015.xlsx, which we did not parse. We will not type crop, food, or machinery majors from memory. The domestic gaokao charter is a different fee schedule for a different audience.

At a Glance

Priced pageChina Agricultural University, 2027 international undergraduate notice, English and Chinese, both posted 3 September 2026. One tuition line: 20,000 RMB a year. It is not a per-major sticker for food science or agronomy.
2027 window1 November 2026 to 31 May 2027. Checked on 29 October 2026, the window had not opened. The 2026 international window, 1 March to 15 June 2026, is closed. Do not pay 400 RMB against the closed notice.
Other fees on the noticeApplication 400 RMB, not refundable. Shared room 1,000 to 1,600 RMB a month. Insurance 800 RMB a year. None of these is a food-science supplement. Accommodation is a range, not a room you can reserve with us.
LanguageThe 2027 notice raises the general requirement to HSK 5. The 2026 notice had asked for HSK 4 in general. Veterinary medicine keeps HSK 5 at 250 on both and is a different page here. This agriculture note does not copy the veterinary floor onto food science.
CSCARequired from 2026. The 2027 notice prints a passing score of 50 per subject. The 2026 notice said the score line would be announced. Do not treat those two sentences as the same rule.
Labels, not seatsBiology, Agricultural Engineering, Food Science and Engineering, Crop Science, Agricultural Resources and Environment, Plant Protection, Animal Husbandry, Veterinary Science, and Grass Science. Glossary of the university’s own fields. Not an application menu.
Who may applyAge 18 or above, high-school graduation, a foreign passport, and the ministry emigration rule the notice cites: four years with a foreign passport and two years of residence abroad. Passport valid later than December 2027. Apply at apply.cau.edu.cn.
DragonTrailNo seat and no reading of the unparsed spreadsheet. Find a Suitable Program does not open the November window early. A harvest tour is not this bachelor’s.

One Tuition Line for the International Intake

Food science and agriculture, for an international bachelor’s at 中国农业大学, start from a single fee sentence. The 2027 notice prints 20,000 RMB a year. It does not print a higher line for food engineering or a lower line for crop science. If a later PDF splits the fee by college, that PDF replaces this sentence. Until it does, quoting 20,000 as “the food science price” overclaims what the HTML says. The application fee is 400 RMB and is not refundable. Pay it only when the live form shows a window you are inside. On 29 October 2026 the 2027 window had not started.

The nine first-class names on the 2027 notice are Biology, Agricultural Engineering, Food Science and Engineering, Crop Science, Agricultural Resources and Environment, Plant Protection, Animal Husbandry, Veterinary Science, and Grass Science. The university is describing strengths. Environment and Sustainability holds Agricultural Resources and Environment as that kind of label. Veterinary and Animal Sciences holds the HSK 5 at 250 rule for 动物医学. Neither page, and not this one, lists the spreadsheet’s major rows. Inventing “there is a food science seat at 20,000” would pretend we opened a file we left closed.

HSK 5, and a CSCA Mark That Belongs to 2027

Language on the 2027 international notice is not an English-medium agriculture degree in the sections we used. The general bar moves to HSK 5. That is a change from the 2026 notice, which asked for HSK 4 for the general international intake and reserved HSK 5 at 250 for veterinary medicine. A student who prepared for HSK 4 against the older notice needs the 2027 sentence, not a memory of last spring. We will not assign an IELTS score to this page. UIBE’s English catalogues use TOEFL 86 or IELTS 6.0 for their own majors. Those scores are not printed here.

CSCA, from 2026 onward, is required, and the 2027 notice prints a passing score of 50 per subject. The 2026 notice told applicants the score line would be announced later. Using 50 against a 2026 file, or skipping the exam because an older FAQ was vague, mixes two documents. Subjects still depend on the major. Because the major rows are in the xlsx, we will not tell you whether food science sits a chemistry paper or a mathematics paper. Upload the report after the scores exist. The registration path the notice names is apply.cau.edu.cn.

A Window That Had Not Opened on 29 October 2026

The 2027 application window is 1 November 2026 through 31 May 2027. Checked on 29 October 2026, that interval had not begun. Saying the date is “about to open” is a fact about a calendar. It is not an invitation from DragonTrail, and it is not a promise the university will keep the day. The 2026 international window ran from 1 March to 15 June 2026 and is closed. A saved PDF from the spring does not admit a 2027 freshman. Interviews, the notice says, happen once the applicant count hits a threshold. The threshold is not a number on the HTML, so we will not invent one.

Shared housing on that notice is 1,000 to 1,600 RMB a month. That range is not Beijing Normal University’s passed dorm clock, and it is not Tsinghua’s residential-college booking. Insurance is 800 RMB a year. The contact line is Room 412 in the main building, 17 Tsinghua East Road, Haidian, telephone 0086-10-6273 7815, email cauie@cau.edu.cn. Those inboxes are the university’s. We do not issue the JW202 form and we do not reserve the shared room. Cost of Studying is where you add the monthly range to the 20,000 RMB year after you know you are inside the window.

The Domestic Charter Is a Different Audience

The domestic 2026 charter posted 29 May 2026 is a gaokao document. It prints its own fee bands, including a lower agronomy figure and a general figure that are not 20,000 RMB, and it can state a length for 动物医学 that the international HTML does not restate. Pasting 3,000 or 5,000 onto an international food-science budget undercharges a different product. Pasting a five-year veterinary length onto agriculture invents a duration the international notice does not give food science either. Read the header of the page. If it is the gaokao charter, it is not this intake.

Passport validity on the international notice must run later than December 2027. Age is 18 or above. High-school graduation is required. Nationality follows the foreign-passport rule the notice cites, including the emigration test of four years with that passport and two years of residence abroad. The physical form linked from the notice, the CSC foreigner physical examination form, is valid for six months. An X1 visa and a JW202 follow admission, and the residence permit is due within 30 days. False documents cancel status. DragonTrail cannot rewrite a residence history.

Short Courses and Other Universities Are Not This Notice

Beijing Normal University’s science band of 27,700 RMB a year is a different university and a closed 2026 file. Its catalog does not become an agriculture menu because both schools teach science in Chinese. Tsinghua’s English engineering guide at 100,000 RMB a year is a third product. Engineering in China keeps that fee. A reader who wants food machinery, crop breeding, or nutrition on the parchment still has to see those words on CAU’s spreadsheet or on a later HTML page. Until then, the honest inventory is the nine labels plus one tuition line.

A food-science laboratory visit, a harvest week, or a company tour is not this bachelor’s. DragonTrail does not run a practicum and does not sign a food-safety license. Learning outcomes on the notice are the university’s courses, assessments, and diploma rules, which the HTML does not itemize major by major. Ask the faculty for the course list if a home authority needs it. Bring that list. Do not bring a city reputation. League labels such as 双一流 are glossary on Universities and Schools and do not rank food colleges.

What To Re-Read Before You Pay 400 RMB

Before you pay 400 RMB, read the live window, the HSK line, and the single tuition figure. If the form still says 1 November 2026 and your calendar is earlier, wait. If the form has split tuition by major, the sentence in this article is out of date. If the spreadsheet has been replaced by an HTML table, use the table. We can read the new link with you. We cannot sit CSCA, we cannot complete the physical form, and we cannot choose a crop major that the file does not show.

Cities follow the university that admits you. The notice we used is China Agricultural University in Beijing. Campuses the university describes on its own pages are still that university’s description, not a DragonTrail city menu. Where To Study comes after the major exists. How To Apply orders documents. What To Study is the hub. A closed 2026 PDF and an unopened 2027 window can sit in the same browser tab. Only the second one, once it opens and once your major is actually listed, is a form.

FAQ

Does DragonTrail offer agriculture or food-science places?

No. China Agricultural University admits its own international undergraduates. This page records the 2027 notice we read on 29 October 2026. Find a Suitable Program does not submit apply.cau.edu.cn for you.

How much is international undergraduate tuition on that notice?

One line: 20,000 RMB a year. The application fee is 400 RMB and is not refundable. Shared rooms are 1,000 to 1,600 RMB a month. Insurance is 800 RMB a year. None of these is a food-science supplement.

Was the 2027 agriculture window open on 29 October 2026?

No. It is printed from 1 November 2026 to 31 May 2027. The 2026 window, 1 March to 15 June 2026, had already closed. Check the live page before you pay. The day can move.

Can I apply to Food Science and Engineering by name?

The notice lists Food Science and Engineering as a first-class discipline label. The enrollment rows are in a spreadsheet we did not parse. A label is not confirmation that a seat is open.

Which HSK score does the 2027 notice ask for?

The general requirement on the 2027 notice is HSK 5. That is higher than the 2026 notice’s general HSK 4. Veterinary medicine keeps HSK 5 at 250 and is explained on the veterinary page, not as a food-science rule.

Is the domestic charter’s lower fee the international price?

No. The 2026 domestic charter is the gaokao intake. Its fee bands are not the 20,000 RMB international line. Read the header before you budget.

Does CSCA need a score of 50?

The 2027 notice prints 50 per subject as the passing mark. The 2026 notice said the line would be announced. Use the notice year on the form you are filing, and the subjects that match your major once that major is visible.

What should I send if the spreadsheet is published as a web table?

The URL. We can check whether a food or crop row is actually listed and whether tuition is still a single line. We cannot select the major or pay the 400 RMB.
