Program Intake Calendar
This program intake calendar is a status list of windows that were actually read, not a booking chart. Each line says whether it had passed by 29 October 2026 or was still printed as open. DragonTrail does not add a row of its own.
Information checked 29 October 2026 (Asia/Shanghai).
Sources are 北京语言大学’s undergraduate page, its undated language grid, 清华大学经济管理学院’s September 2026 master’s page, and Beijing’s municipal registration roundup dated 24 August 2026. The municipal page says it is for reference only. The English September label on the 北京语言大学 page conflicts with itself. Both problems stay visible.
At a Glance
| Who This Is For | A reader who wants every window opened for this batch on one status list. |
|---|---|
| Who Should Look Elsewhere | A reader looking for DragonTrail’s next course date. That row does not exist. |
| Clock | Passed 2026 gates stay passed. Round 1 was still printed as open. Later rounds had not started. No language month was printed. |
| Money | University fees stay in the notes. No calendar fee. No language-grid fee. |
| Who Decides | The named school or the municipal roundup is the source of each row. DragonTrail only records the reading. |
| Papers | None from this table. Admission papers come from the school after a real offer. |
| Easy to Mix Up | An application close is not a class start. A break is not an intake. A week length is not a month. |
| Worked Example | On 29 October 2026 a 2027 master’s applicant could still be inside round 1. A student aiming at March 2026 entry could not. Both facts are the same day’s reading. |
| What We Do Not Do | DragonTrail does not add intakes, repair a conflicting year label, or treat a reference list as a registrar. |
Who This Route Fits
Program Intake Calendar is for a reader who wants one table before opening the season pages, and who will not treat an application deadline as the first day of class. DragonTrail does not enroll this reader and does not set an age or a start date.
Read alongside that fit, Program Intake Calendar 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.
- Read status words before months.
- If a date is missing, it was not opened.
What the Printed Rules Say
The rule that actually constrains Program Intake Calendar is narrower than a brochure. One shared list supplies every season page in this batch. If a date is not on the list, it was not opened, and a season page must not invent it. Article 45’s 180 days is a length rule beside the list, not a row with a month. A line from a different office is not copied onto this reader.
Where Program Intake Calendar cites a number, the number stops at the page it came from. 北京语言大学’s international undergraduate page prints ages 18 to 55, and under 18 it asks for the school’s consent plus a guardianship notary. Starred majors can start in March or September. Other majors are September only. The March 2026 deadline is printed as 12 January 2026. The English page also prints a September 2025 label with a deadline of 30 June 2026. On 29 October 2026 both dates had passed. The application fee there is 800 RMB and is not refundable.
- Keep 180 days beside the table, not inside it as a fake month.
- One list feeds every season page.
Time and the Visa Split
The clock for Program Intake Calendar is the stay length and the school’s own window, not a season label. Passed: 12 January 2026, 30 June 2026, and the August–early September 2026 registration mornings. Still printed as open on the review date: 清华大学 round 1 through 15 December 2026 at 17:00 China Standard Time. Not yet started: round 2 on 1 January 2027, and the Shenzhen finance third round on 27 February 2027. The winter break is a break, not a start. A date that has already passed stays passed.
Timing on Program Intake Calendar does not create an intake DragonTrail can open. The Beijing municipal English page dated 24 August 2026 lists autumn registration days and says they are for reference only. It prints 清华大学 new undergraduates, including international students, as 19 August, 北京大学 new undergraduate international students as 30 August, and 北京师范大学, including international students, as 6 September. On 29 October 2026 those days had passed. The source line is China Education Network Television, not each university’s own notice.
| 北京语言大学 March 2026 | Application deadline 12 January 2026. Passed. Starred majors were the March pattern. |
|---|---|
| 北京语言大学 September line | English page: “September 2025,” deadline 30 June 2026. Passed. The year label conflicts. |
| 北京语言大学 language lengths | 4, 5, 6, 8, or 12 weeks, 20 class hours a week. No month and no fee. |
| 清华大学 round 1 | Through 15 December 2026, 17:00 China Standard Time. Still printed as open. A 2027 master’s application, not class. |
| 清华大学 round 2 | 1 January 2027, 08:00, to 26 February 2027, 17:00. Not started on the review date. |
| 清华大学 Shenzhen finance round 3 | 27 February 2027, 08:00, to 15 May 2027, 17:00. Not started. |
| 清华大学 winter break | 21 January 2027 to 17 February 2027. System stays up. Verification may slow. Not a course. |
| Beijing registration roundup | Dated 24 August 2026. Late August and early September mornings. Passed. Reference only. |
- Do not revive 12 January or 30 June 2026.
- Do not turn 15 December 2026 into a class.
Fees That Belong to a School
Money on Program Intake Calendar is whatever the named school printed in RMB, if it printed anything. Fees sit in the notes, not as prices DragonTrail charges. 800 RMB to apply, where those two universities printed it, is not refundable on their pages. Tuition lines belong to the named program. The language grid contributes weeks and no fee, so the calendar does not invent one. DragonTrail does not add a fee of its own.
Any yuan figure named for Program Intake Calendar stays on the school’s list. 北京语言大学’s short-term Chinese grid prints 4, 5, 6, and 8-week courses and a one-semester or 12-week course, at 20 class hours a week, with a class hour of 50 minutes. Credits on that page are 18 to 20 class hours each. The grid prints no month, no fee, and no age. A length is not a start date.
- Leave fees in the program notes.
- The grid’s blank price stays blank.
Papers and Who Decides
Papers for Program Intake Calendar come from the school and, if a visa is needed, from the consulate. A row on this calendar is not an admission letter, a JW form, or an invitation. After a school admits you, the Sweden note dated 2026/10/12 still chooses X1 or X2 from the day count. The calendar does not stamp a visa. This site does not issue either document.
Documents discussed for Program Intake Calendar 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.
- This table is not a visa.
- X1 and X2 still follow a real admission and a day count.
What to Do Next
The useful next step after Program Intake Calendar is a question to the school, then a look at the neighboring routes. Read the season that matches the row, especially Autumn Study in China and Spring Study in China. Who the dates apply to is on Who Can Study in China. Neither button on this page reserves a seat.
Before acting on Program Intake Calendar, keep the following boundary in view. 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.
- Open the season page for the row you mean.
- Request Guidance does not insert a new row.

These pages were read on 29 October 2026 (Asia/Shanghai). An age line, a fee, and an application window belong to the office named in the link. If a date has passed, the page says so. None of this is a DragonTrail age rule, an intake, or a seat, and none of it is legal advice.
- 清华大学经济管理学院 — Admission to Pre-Experience Master’s Programs 2027 for international students, released September 2026. A bachelor’s degree, or an equivalent, is required before 2027 registration. Final deadline 26 February 2027, 17:00 China Standard Time. Round 1 for Master of Finance (SEM) and Master in Management runs through 15 December 2026, 17:00. Round 2 is 1 January 2027, 08:00, to 26 February 2027, 17:00. The Shenzhen finance program adds a third round, 27 February 2027, 08:00, to 15 May 2027, 17:00. Winter break is printed as 21 January 2027 to 17 February 2027: the system stays available, and online verification may be delayed. Application fee 800 RMB, not refundable. Tuition: Master of Finance 198,000 RMB for the full program; Master in Management 30,000 RMB a year; Columbia dual degree, Tsinghua phase, 30,000 RMB a year. Insurance 800 RMB a year. Beijing dorms: 40 RMB a bed a day for a double, 30 RMB for a triple. The page’s TOEFL line for the Columbia track prints both “5.5” and “100,” so 5.5 is not treated here as a confirmed TOEFL score. These are 清华大学 figures, not DragonTrail prices. — retrieved 29 October 2026 (Asia/Shanghai)
- 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 the program intake calendar?
No. One shared list supplies every season page in this batch. If a date is not on the list, it was not opened, and a season page must not invent it. Article 45’s 180 days is a length rule beside the list, not a row with a month. The school decides who it admits. DragonTrail does not publish a substitute age, degree bar, or start date for Program Intake Calendar.
Which age or status line was actually printed for the program intake calendar?
Only the lines named on this page. One shared list supplies every season page in this batch. If a date is not on the list, it was not opened, and a season page must not invent it. Article 45’s 180 days is a length rule beside the list, not a row with a month. 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 the program intake calendar?
Passed: 12 January 2026, 30 June 2026, and the August–early September 2026 registration mornings. Still printed as open on the review date: 清华大学 round 1 through 15 December 2026 at 17:00 China Standard Time. Not yet started: round 2 on 1 January 2027, and the Shenzhen finance third round on 27 February 2027. The winter break is a break, not a start. 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 the program intake calendar on 29 October 2026?
Passed: 12 January 2026, 30 June 2026, and the August–early September 2026 registration mornings. Still printed as open on the review date: 清华大学 round 1 through 15 December 2026 at 17:00 China Standard Time. Not yet started: round 2 on 1 January 2027, and the Shenzhen finance third round on 27 February 2027. The winter break is a break, not a start. 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 the program intake calendar?
No. Fees sit in the notes, not as prices DragonTrail charges. 800 RMB to apply, where those two universities printed it, is not refundable on their pages. Tuition lines belong to the named program. The language grid contributes weeks and no fee, so the calendar does not invent one. 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 the program intake calendar?
A row on this calendar is not an admission letter, a JW form, or an invitation. After a school admits you, the Sweden note dated 2026/10/12 still chooses X1 or X2 from the day count. The calendar does not stamp a visa. 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 the program intake calendar?
Ask the school whether the age line, the guardian rule, the teaching weeks, and the refund rule apply to this person. Fees sit in the notes, not as prices DragonTrail charges. 800 RMB to apply, where those two universities printed it, is not refundable on their pages. Tuition lines belong to the named program. The language grid contributes weeks and no fee, so the calendar does not invent one. Pay only the office that published the fee, and keep the receipt in that school’s name.
Where should a reader go after the program intake calendar?
Use Find a Suitable Program for how routes are organized, and Request Guidance if you want help reading a rule. Neither button enrolls you. Program Intake Calendar does not hold a seat.
