Jiangsu University (JSU) Scholarships
More details :
Jiangsu University (JSU) is one of the most scholarship-active universities in China for international students. Alongside the Chinese Government Scholarship (CSC) — which covers Bachelor, Master and PhD study — JSU provides multiple internal scholarship routes that significantly increase your chances of securing funding.
Beyond CSC, JSU offers additional scholarship categories including:
JSU Presidential Scholarship
JSU School Scholarships
OEC Scholarship for Excellent Students
OEC Scholarship for Social Contributors

The CSC scholarship at JSU is a fully funded programme covering tuition fees, on-campus accommodation, monthly living stipend and medical insurance.
