This study aimed to 1) examine the current status of educational quality evaluation in application-oriented undergraduate colleges in Guangxi, 2) develop an evaluation indicator system for the educational quality of application-oriented undergraduate colleges in Guangxi, and 3) examine the system’s feasibility and adaptability. A mixed-methods approach was employed, combining quantitative methods (questionnaires) with qualitative techniques (document analysis, in-depth interviews, focus group discussions, and the Delphi method). Data were collected from 661 stakeholders, including teachers, administrators, and teaching supervisors. The findings revealed that: 1) The overall educational quality in Guangxi’s application-oriented undergraduate colleges was moderate. Among the four dimensions (context, input, process, and output), the input dimension performed best, particularly in infrastructure and faculty development. In contrast, the output dimension was weakest, especially in graduate readiness and alignment with labour market needs, highlighting the necessity for a more outcome-oriented evaluation framework. 2) The evaluation system was developed through expert consultation and refined via the Delphi method. The final model comprised six first-level, 17 second-level, and 50 third-level indicators, encompassing the educational environment, development level, investment level, teacher level, school quality, and student quality. The system emphasises student-centredness, contextual relevance, and practical applicability. 3) Expert evaluations confirmed its high feasibility and adaptability, with mean scores of 4.33 and 4.15, respectively, indicating strong consensus. These findings affirm the system’s scientific rigour and practical utility as a tool for institutional assessment, policy development, and continuous quality improvement in application-oriented higher education in Guangxi.
