Answer:
When an application is pending a decision it means that your school has
received it and no admissions decision has been made yet. The
admissions office may have reviewed your application package or may not
have. The main cause of a pending application is usually incomplete
application documents. As a result you will be requested by the school’s
admission office to re-check and modify all submitted application
documents or perhaps even add extra documents and then re-submit them.
To
avoid further delays, carefully read the university’s comments, modify
your application form on ACASC, and re-upload the required application
documents. You can contact ACASC on admission@acasc.cn for any help with
regards to your pending application.

Question: How much does it cost to apply for an MBBS program?
Answer:
Application fees may vary, as application processes differ from one
agency to the other, however, to give you a gist through a standard
application process. Step by step, we take you through a rational budget
of how much you will need to apply for an MBBS program, using an
approachof approximation and minimalism.
For
starters, you’ll need to pay a sum of 2,300 RMB, an equivalent of 342
in dollars. That’s the fee that reaches the admission office upon
submissionof your health evaluation form, application form, scanned bio
page of your passport and your transcripts or results. It also covers
the deposit or security fee, this amount is returned to the student once
the student reports to school and pays tuition fee in full, which is a
measure put in place to minimize frauds who secure student visas for
other purposes other than schooling. Finally, the applicant will need to
pay for postage of all processed documents to be sent back to him or
her. This is usually about a 100$. From the above analysis, a grand
total of 442$ will be used in application.
Question: Can I do my internship outside China? In this case, do I need to pay tuition fees to my university?
Answer:
Of course! You can, as long as it is done at WHO-recognized hospitals
under the supervision of qualified medical professionals. When you take a
look at the fee structure below, you realize that the fee structure of
the final year, which is the year students are supposed to be on
internship, is greatly subsidized from 16,000RMB to just 4,300RMB, an
equivalent of 639$. This fee does not actually go into tuition but
rather into medical insurance, graduation and residence permit, all of
which the student would need once he or she returns from internship.
Question: How is MBBS in China?
Answer:
In terms of academics, the pressure is the same as you would experience
at any other medical school elsewhere in the world, even maybe a little
as learning overseas would require another level of responsibility,
maturity and time management. There is also a healthy competition among
students to push them to bring out the best of their abilities. Students
also achieve a higher level of socialization and cultural exposure as
they interact with classmates of different nationalities and
backgrounds, and fun equally balances with academics, to give students a
balanced mentality. A few problems may arise from geographical changes
especially for students from tropical parts of the world such as Africa
who might find certain seasons a little bit harsh to them, and even find
it hard to go outdoors during those times. Such problems are not even
long-term ones, as students learn to eventually adapt to these
situations and further convert them to one of their individual
strengths.
Question: Is there an entrance exams for MBBS in China?
Answer:
Universities in India require a common entrance test to be passed
before enrollment into medical schools. However, this not the case with
China-based universities, which require a result of your High School
Exam certificate or its equivalent in qualifications. There is no
instance of having to write or pass a common entrance test.
