On January 21, 2015, the Ministry of Finance and the Ministry of Education jointly issued a notice to improve the funding system of China's first scholarship and raise the funding standards for non-Chinese university students, that is, international students.

Generally speaking, according to the notice, foreign undergraduates, master's students, and doctoral students can get up to 66,200 yuan, 79,200 yuan, and 99,800 yuan per person per year in China.

Obviously, the Chinese scholarships that these foreign students can get are already very high, so high that they have exceeded the annual salary of many Chinese in 2023.

As for how many Chinese's annual salaries can be exceeded, everyone should judge for themselves according to their annual income!

It is worth mentioning that the notice divides the scholarship for international students into three grades, and according to the subject category, corresponding to different funding standards.

Among them, the first category includes philosophy, economics, law, education, literature (excluding literature and art), history, and management;

Among them, the second category includes science, engineering, and agriculture; Among them, three categories include: literature (literature and art) and medicine.

In addition, graduate students and scholars who teach in English will be provided with an additional teaching subsidy of 5,000 yuan per person per year.

From these specific funding rules, we can fully see that the Ministry of Finance and the Ministry of Education take care of foreign students, which is really meticulous!

Of course, what do you think of this matter, the author will not say, if you are interested, you may wish to search on the Internet on your own, and netizens' evaluations of this matter ......

In addition, the notice also clarifies the specific uses of these scholarships, including but not limited to funding tuition, accommodation, living expenses, comprehensive medical insurance for international students, and even international travel expenses for international students.

Among them, tuition and accommodation fees will be directly allocated to the colleges and universities where international students are studying, and will be coordinated by specific universities; Living allowances are also allocated to international students to attend universities, but they need to be paid to those international students on a monthly basis.

Among them, the comprehensive medical insurance premium is purchased by the Ministry of Education for international students according to regulations.

As for the international travel expenses of international students, according to the agreement, the "National Study Abroad Management Committee" will purchase international air tickets for scholarship students according to regulations.

What's even more exaggerated is that international students with particularly excellent academic performance can also enjoy the outstanding international student awards from the state or their universities.

The above are the scholarship standards that foreign students in China can enjoy.

In this regard, the author would like to say that those foreign students who come to China to study and get China's best scholarship are really happy and enviable.

In addition, the author sincerely hopes that the state can supervise the real destination of the scholarship for international students, after all, there have been cases of foreign students traveling around the world with scholarships and attacking onlookers Chinese.

After all, taking taxpayers' money to raise "white-eyed wolves" will definitely chill the hearts of many Chinese people!

Finally, the author also sincerely hopes that the Chinese pride of heaven in China's major universities can also enjoy such a high national scholarship every year!

If this is the case, then the Chinese people (including countless college students) will applaud and rejoice!

If there really is such a day, it will be a great blessing for the country and the people!
