什么是CSCA？

来华留学本科入学学业水平测试(CSCA)是面向计划赴中国攻读本科学位的国际学生设计的标准化考试。 CSCA由中国国家留学基金管理委员会(CSC)组织，并联合中国高校专家共同研发，旨在评估学生的语言能力与学术基础，帮助学生更好地为在中国的本科学习做学术准备。 同时，CSCA成绩也是中国高校在招收本科生及奖学金评审中参考的重要依据之一。
China Scholastic Competency Assessment (CSCA) is a standardized test designed for international students who plan to pursue undergraduate degrees in China. Organized by China Scholarship Council (CSC) and jointly developed with experts from Chinese universities, CSCA assesses students’ language proficiency and academic readiness, helping them better prepare for undergraduate studies in China. CSCA is also an important reference used by Chinese universities in their admission and scholarship evaluation processes.

为什么选择CSCA？

CSCA通过全面评估学生的语言能力与学科知识水平，帮助其更好地了解自身现状，为顺利适应中国本科课程做好准备。

  • 广泛认可：被中国高校广泛接受* 学术导向：聚焦语言与学科能力评估，帮助学生提升学习竞争力* 申请支持：为高校录取与奖学金评审提供学术依据
    CSCA provides a comprehensive evaluation of academic and language abilities, enabling students to better understand their strengths and prepare for successful study in China.* Recognition: Widely accepted by Chinese universities* Academic Focus: Enhances students' readiness and competitiveness for undergraduate studies* Application Support: Serves as an academic reference for university admission and scholarship review.
  • 考试时间2025年12月21日将启动CSCA考试的全球首考。 自2026年起，CSCA进入常态运营阶段，形成固定考试周期，每年分5次组织考试，时间分别安排在1月、3月、4月、6月及12月。 12月、4月和6月的考试时间将重点覆盖亚太地区，1月和3月的考试时间则适当侧重欧美地区。 通过这一设置确保全球不同时区考生均可选择合适的考试时间。
    The first global CSCA test will be launched on December 21, 2025 (note: original text has "2181" which is assumed to be a typo, corrected to "21"). Starting in 2026, CSCA will be held on a regular basis five times a year - in January, March, April, June, and December. As each test session begins simultaneously worldwide, exams scheduled in December, April, and June are more convenient for candidates in the Asia-Pacific region, while those in January and March better suit candidates in Europe and the Americas. This global scheduling ensures that test-takers from all time zones have fair and convenient opportunities to participate.
  • 考试形式考试初期以居家网考为主，同时逐步在重点生源国家和地区设立线下考点 (集中机考或纸笔考)。 2025年CSCA将在越南、泰国两国设立首批线下考点，实现线上线下相结合的考试布局。 目前，其他国家和地区的更多考点正在稳步建设中。
    Initially, CSCA will be conducted primarily in a remote, home-based online format, with onsite test centers (computer-based or paper-based) gradually established in major source countries and regions. In December 2025, the first onsite test centers will be launched in Vietnam and Thailand, marking the beginning of a hybrid testing model. Additional test centers in other countries and regions are currently under development.
  • 成绩相关CSCA各科目均采用百分制评分，成绩作为参考性依据，由各用分高校根据自身专业要求自行设置录取标准。 成绩发布时间根据考试形式有所不同。 居家网考和线下集中机考将在考后7个工作日内公布成绩；纸笔考试则将在考后14个工作日内公布。

    • Each CSCA subject is graded on a 100-point scale. Test results will serve as a reference for universities, which will set their own admission criteria based on individual program requirements. Score release dates vary by test format: results for online and onsite computer-based tests will be announced within 7 working days after the test, while paper-based test results will be released within 14 working days. Universities can also view each applicant's percentile ranking among all global test-takers to better understand their academic standing within the international applicant pool.
