History
History is the study of the past as it is described in written documents. Events occurring before written record are considered prehistory. It is an umbrella term
that relates to past events as well as the memory, discovery,
collection, organization, presentation, and interpretation of
information about these events. Scholars who write about history are
called historians.
History can also refer to the academic discipline which uses a narrative
to examine and analyse a sequence of past events, and objectively
determine the patterns of cause and effect that determine them.
Historians sometimes debate the nature of history
and its usefulness by discussing the study of the discipline as an end
in itself and as a way of providing "perspective" on the problems of the
present.
Stories common to a particular culture, but not supported by external sources (such as the tales surrounding King Arthur), are usually classified as cultural heritage or legends, because they do not show the "disinterested investigation" required of the discipline of history. Herodotus, a 5th-century BC Greek historian is considered within the Western tradition to be the "father of history", and, along with his contemporary Thucydides,
helped form the foundations for the modern study of human history.
Their works continue to be read today, and the gap between the
culture-focused Herodotus and the military-focused Thucydides remains a
point of contention or approach in modern historical writing. In Asia, a
state chronicle, the Spring and Autumn Annals was known to be compiled from as early as 722 BC although only 2nd-century BC texts survived.
Ancient influences have helped spawn variant interpretations of
the nature of history which have evolved over the centuries and
continue to change today. The modern study of history is wide-ranging,
and includes the study of specific regions and the study of certain
topical or thematical elements of historical investigation. Often
history is taught as part of primary and secondary education, and the
academic study of history is a major discipline in university studies.

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
Processing time varies for different applications. For example to process a degree program application requires more time than a Chinese language application. Confirmation for Chinese language application by the admission office usually takes 2 to 4 weeks. However, time for degree programs application differs. For example fall semester application processing is after March, and it takes a period of 1 to 2 months. This also depends on your qualification and the number of applicants.
