Since then the university has been affiliated with the league, and the First Secretary of the league usually holds the presidency of the university.

The China Youth University of Political Studies ceased operation as a public university in 2017. It is now a co-brand used by the Central School of the Communist Youth League of China (pinyin: Zhōngyāng Tuán Xiào), a training school run by the Communist Youth League.
