What are your chances?

Sichuan Agricultural University is a public university with campuses in Ya’an, Chengdu’s Wenjiang District, and Dujiangyan. Its origins date to the Sichuan Provincial Agricultural School founded in 1906; it became an independent institution in Ya’an in 1956 and adopted its current name in 1985. Agriculture remains central, particularly crop science, animal science, veterinary medicine, forestry, food, and environmental fields, but teaching also spans science, engineering, economics, management, medicine, humanities, education, law, and art. The university awards bachelor’s, master’s, and doctoral degrees and operates substantial agricultural research infrastructure. Applicants should examine programs campus by campus: the database’s Chengdu location describes only one part of a three-campus university, and the academic setting, city context, and available majors differ among Ya’an, Chengdu, and Dujiangyan.

Student Life & Environment

Student life is spread across three campuses, so daily experience depends strongly on program location. Official 2026 materials show that each campus has student residences, dining operations, student-organization support, and sports facilities. The university’s student-association administration accepts and supervises campus-based clubs, while cultural programming includes arts activities, traditional-festival events, and cross-campus initiatives. Dining and accommodation are institutionally managed, but the university does not publish one current, universally applicable room description or housing price on the profile pages reviewed. Applicants should therefore obtain the assigned campus, room type, occupancy, and current charge directly from the relevant admissions or residence office. International-student housing includes a monthly allowance for water and electricity, with excess use charged separately; bedding is not supplied under the 2026 international undergraduate terms. In June 2026, the university began a scheduled free-access trial for students and staff at badminton halls, table-tennis halls, and fitness rooms on all three campuses. Access requires advance booking and is limited to specified Friday periods during teaching weeks. Campus dining services also operate during selected holidays for students who remain in residence. These services provide useful continuity, although students should not assume identical opening hours or facilities at each campus.

Location & Surroundings

The university has three official addresses. Ya’an Campus is at 46 Xinkang Road in Ya’an’s Yucheng District. Chengdu Campus is at 211 Huimin Road in Wenjiang District, on the western side of metropolitan Chengdu. Dujiangyan Campus is at 288 Jianshe Road in Dujiangyan, a county-level city administered by Chengdu. The database city of Chengdu therefore applies to the Chengdu and Dujiangyan locations but does not describe the entire institution. Campus assignment is a practical academic and lifestyle decision. Ya’an is the university’s historic base and lies southwest of Chengdu, while the other two campuses provide different urban contexts within the wider Chengdu area. Students should consult the current program list rather than choosing solely by city name because academic units and programs are distributed among the three sites. Travel time between campuses should not be treated like an ordinary walk between buildings: they are in separate cities or districts. Housing searches, commuting plans, internship access, and arrival arrangements should all begin with the exact campus shown in the admission offer. International-student administrative offices listed in the 2026 guide are located at both Ya’an and Chengdu campuses.

Costs & Career Outcomes

Costs differ sharply by applicant category and program. The 2026 international undergraduate guide set tuition at CNY 12,000 per year and a non-refundable CNY 600 application fee. It also listed annual insurance of CNY 800, a CNY 400 residence-permit charge, an approximately CNY 500 medical examination, and books estimated at about CNY 700 per year. The housing price appeared only as an image and could not be reliably extracted, so applicants should request the current room-specific amount. International applicants could be considered for government awards and university scholarships; awards require annual review, and government and university tuition scholarships cannot be combined under the stated rules. For domestic undergraduates, the 2026 charter does not provide one general tuition figure. It states that tuition and accommodation follow provincial pricing rules. The Patras College cooperative undergraduate programs cost CNY 70,000 per year in 2026, while 2+2 Australian programs add overseas tuition and living expenses. Those categories should not be used to estimate standard-program costs. For 2026 master’s entrants, annual tuition ranged from CNY 7,200 in selected academic fields to CNY 30,000 for Accounting, with many professional degrees priced at CNY 15,000; other listed disciplines were CNY 8,000. Doctoral tuition was CNY 9,000 for management and CNY 10,000 for other fields. Accommodation was separate. The university operates a careers portal with employer vacancies, campus presentations, recruitment fairs, and public-sector opportunities, but the reviewed current sources did not provide verified graduate salary or placement-rate outcomes.
