You don't need a degree certificate to apply for the school directly, but you need to ask in advance whether the colleges you apply for have special regulations. Under normal circumstances, schools such as Jilin University and South China Normal University can apply.

A degree certificate refers to a degree certificate, which is issued to prove students' professional knowledge and technical level. In China, the qualification units that issue degree certificates are institutions of higher learning or scientific research institutions approved by the Ministry of Education.
