The principle related to the distribution time of state grants is that state grants should help students who can't afford to go to school because of family financial difficulties to successfully complete their studies, rather than simply "discharging grades one, two or three" according to their academic performance. Another point is to seek truth from facts, not just by a "poverty certificate" to avoid fraud, and the real poor students are faced with the reality of dropping out of school and starving, so it is generally required to publicize the list of grants.
Generally speaking, grants are grants given by the state or funds raised by schools to help children with excellent academic performance but difficult families. The national regulation is 3500 yuan per person per year, but if the school has enough funds, it will be more frequent, according to the school regulations.
