In April 2013, the institute was granted the college status and was approved by the Ministry of Education to use "Changsha Teachers College" as its Chinese name. However, since the Ministry does not regulate academic institutions' English names, the institute used "Changsha Normal University" as its English name since then despite the fact that it was not granted the university status.[2]
