Tips for Bangladeshi applicants
- For postgraduate study, the High-Level Postgraduate Program is the scholarship to target now. Aim for the November or December batch; our CSC scholarship guide explains the CSC portal.
- Bangladesh is a Belt and Road partner country, so the Silk Road program may suit you if the 2027 round includes your field.
- For bilateral Type A, watch for the annual call announced through the Chinese Embassy in Dhaka, and ask Beihang for a pre-admission letter to include.
- Undergraduates: book the CSCA early, collect a principal's recommendation and submit scholarship forms well before 30 April 2027.
- A partial waiver still leaves housing, insurance and living costs. Compare options in our China scholarships guide and see our Beihang University page.
