On the evening of September 23, the Zhejiang University International Student Recruitment Ambassador Achievement Presentation Event was successfully held at Zijingang Campus.

Since the call for 2026 Recruitment Ambassadors opened in December 2025, the event has attracted enthusiastic participation from numerous international students and alumni. Following the submission of achievement materials and preliminary review by the International College, 18 individual applicants and 9 teams advanced to the achievement showcase list. Compared with last year, the applicants for this year's program increased significantly, with finalists for the achievement howcase growing by approximately 145% year-on-year. Participants included undergraduates, master's students, doctoral students, and alumni, fully demonstrating the event's appeal and influence.

The event distinguished guests to serve as judges: Tang Haichang, Director of the Undergraduate Admissions Office; Peng Lieping, Director of the Graduate Admissions Office; Liang Junying, Director of the Office of International Cooperation and Exchange and Director of the Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan Affairs Office, and Dean of the International College; as well as Wang Yufen, Executive Vice Dean of the International College; and Chen Ye, Yi Honghui, and Chen Nanfei, Vice Deans. In addition, each group of Recruitment Ambassadors recommended two student representatives to form a public review panel for scoring.

At the beginning of the event, Liang Junying highly affirmed the significance and remarkable results of the Recruitment Ambassador event. She pointed out that the event serves as an important bridge connecting the university with the global stage and, through the dedicated efforts of the Recruitment Ambassadors, has taken root and flourished. She emphasized that the university attaches great importance to the hard work of every ambassador, is proud of all participants, extended sincere greetings to everyone, and wished the event complete success.

The achievement showcase session was wonderfully diverse. Combining their own strengths, the Recruitment Ambassadors explored many creative promotional models: some used short video platforms and the language of the camera to tell Zhejiang University stories, allowing the campus scenery and academic atmosphere to cross mountains and seas; some relied on hometown communities and built bridges of communication between prospective students and Zhejiang University through offline sharing sessions; and others leveraged their multilingual strengths to translate Zhejiang University's admissions policies and cultural features into expressions more accessible to audiences in different regions. Recruitment Ambassadors from countries including Indonesia, Malaysia, Myanmar, Vietnam, Spain, Japan, Russia, and Brazil shared their study and life experiences at Zhejiang University with outstanding students around the world through various forms such as online and offline information sessions, social media operations, and application Q&A.

During the comment session, Tang Haichang and Wang Yufen provided wonderful comments on this achievement presentation. They fully affirmed the ambassadors' innovative exploration and fruitful gains in recruitment promotion formats, content, and communication channels, and offered valuable guidance for subsequent promotional work. The two teachers sent messages to the ambassadors: they look forward to further strengthening linkage and collaboration between the university's undergraduate admissions work and international student admissions work; and they hope that the ambassadors, as public representatives of Zhejiang University international students, will uphold the mission of "discovering beauty and promoting beauty," continue to enrich the dimensions of promotion, and pass the "light of the stars" carrying the spirit of Zhejiang University to all parts of the world.

After strict review, the event ultimately selected 3 first prizes, 6 second prizes, and 8 third prizes. The judges presented honorary certificates to the winning teams and individuals and offered their congratulations.

This achievement presentation event not only consolidated innovative experience in international student recruitment promotion, but also gathered the wisdom and strength of current students and alumni, injecting new momentum into the "Study at Zhejiang University" brand. In the future, the university will continue to optimize the training mechanism for Recruitment Ambassadors, build a broader platform for growth, and invite more international students to join the ambassador team, promoting the vigorous development of Zhejiang University's international education.
