Q&A for New International Students on Registration 2020

Xi’an Jiaotong University

I. Entry to China
1. Can the international students come to China this September semester
for registration and study as usual?
Xi’an Jiaotong University (XJTU) will offer both online and offline
courses this coming semester as scheduled. Because of the complicated
situation of Covid-19, it is more likely that those who are now in the mainland
of China are expectedly to take the offline courses, while those who are
outside of Chinese mainland are NOT allowed to come to China at this period
of time due to the restriction on traveling and entry, instead, they may take
online courses to start the new semester.
2. When can I get my Admission Notice and JW202/201 form?
XJTU will provide E-admission Notice for new students to confirm
their admission status. JW202/201 will not be issued for the moment.
II. Registration
3. What are the registration dates for new international students?
The registration dates for new international students are estimated
around middle of September. No matter where you are, you are required to
refer to our coming NOTICE FOR NEW INTERNATIONAL STUDENTS
REGISTRATION 2020 to confirm the exact registration dates and
requirements.
4. How to do the registration when I am outside of Chinese mainland?
XJTU will organize online registration for those who are outside of
Chinese mainland. Please wait for further notice on registration and keep
connected by internet.
5. I’m in Chinese mainland, but I don’t want to come to the University
for Registration. May I do online registration and take online courses?
Those who are in Chinese mainland should come to XJTU in person for
offline registration and courses providing that you strictly follow the
regulations of Chinese government’s Covid-19 control and prevention as
well as requirements in NOTICE FOR NEW INTERNATIONAL
STUDENTS REGISTRATION 2020. Further notice is still expected just in
case.
6. What should I prepare for registration?
No matter you do your registration online or offline, it is compulsory to
provide your original degree and its notarized copy for XJTU to check and
verify. Please prepare the documents in advance.
7. Due to some special circumstances, I cannot register online or offline
as required, what should I do?
When you receive XJTU’s NOTICE FOR NEW INTERNATIONAL
STUDENTS REGISTRATION 2020 and find that you cannot register as
required indeed, you should contact the teacher whose information is at the
end of the Admission Notice at least 5 working days before the registration
dates to get things confirmed. Failing to do registration within 2 weeks
without XJTU’s permission will be regarded as give-up admission and
scholarship.
III. Visa
8. I am in the mainland of China now and my visa is about to expire.
May I come in advance to XJTU to register and extend my residence permit?
No. You shall not come to the University for registration until you have
been officially notified by the University. We are not able to extend residence
permits for students who are not registered. And even if you come to the
University without permission, we could not accept your application.
9. I am in the mainland of China and my visa is still valid. Will my visa
get extension after I come to XJTU and complete the registration procedures
as required?
If your visa is still valid for more than 10 working days when you come
to the University as required, we could help you to extend your residence
permit for study. However, you must ensure that the type of current visa you
hold can be changed to a study residence permit in Xi'an. Due to the territorial
management nature of the visa administration and the different methods of
implementation of local immigration authorities, please consult the Xi'an
Public Security Bureau to make sure if the type of your current visa can be
changed.
10. I am in the mainland of China and I have a valid study residence
permit right now. May I come to the University with this permit?
If you currently hold a study permit visa, which is also valid, you may
come to the University in accordance with the requirements of XJTU’s
NOTICE FOR NEW INTERNATIONAL STUDENTS REGISTRATION
2020. After your registration is completed, we will assist you to apply for the
extension of your residence permit according to the requirements of the
Entry-exit Department of Xi'an Public Security Bureau. It should be noted
that, according to the requirements of the Entry-exit Department of the Xi'an
Public Security Bureau, you need to provide the performance certificate of
your previous school.
IV. Scholarship
11. I am a scholarship student and complete the registration according
to the requirements of the university. What about my scholarship?
Students go through the registration formalities offline according to the
requirements of the university and their scholarship will be normally
executed in accordance with relevant regulations of the scholarship.
Students complete the registration online and their living allowance will
start to be given after they enter into China as required and pass the relevant
qualification examination.
