Students who accept the "ordinary undergraduate" study will be awarded the graduation certificate after the expiration of the undergraduate study period and reach the credits required for graduation. Those who meet the conditions for degree granting will be awarded the bachelor's degree. Ordinary colleges and universities take the "college entrance examination" once a year, and tuition fees are charged according to the admission standards of students in the same school. Ordinary college graduates were included in the national enrollment plan of ordinary colleges and universities of the Ministry of Education that year. The admitted students enjoy the same treatment as the four-year undergraduate students enrolled in the national unified entrance examination (national college entrance examination) of ordinary colleges and universities. They are all undergraduates trained by the national unified plan, with undergraduate education as the first degree. It is different from non-uniform enrollment qualifications such as self-study, adult college entrance examination (correspondence, amateur), distance education (network education), and open college entrance examination of radio and television universities.
Graduates of ordinary colleges and universities refer to the enrollment plans of national ordinary colleges and universities and the enrollment plans of national ordinary colleges and universities (the enrollment plans are controlled within 5% of the total number of full-time ordinary college graduates in all provinces in that year). Colleges and universities in all provinces uniformly announce the number of students enrolled and the examinations organized by provincial administrative departments, select outstanding college graduates to participate in the unified examinations organized by the Provincial Education Examinations Institute in the next semester of the third grade before graduation (some provinces issue papers to undergraduate schools), and enter undergraduate colleges to continue regular undergraduate education according to their original majors or related majors.
According to the spirit of the General Office of the Ministry of Education's Measures for Admission of Graduates of Ordinary Higher Vocational Colleges after Compulsory Military Service (Trial) (No.6 [2009] of the Education Department), fresh graduates of ordinary higher vocational colleges who have been enlisted in the army can go through the registration confirmation formalities at the municipal examination institution where their household registration is located within one year after retirement, with their ID cards, graduation certificates of ordinary higher vocational colleges and soldiers' retirement certificates. Municipal examination institutions need to cooperate with local civil affairs departments to carefully examine and confirm candidates' retirement identity certificates. Other matters are the same as those of ordinary candidates. Specific policies shall be formulated by the provincial education authorities.
The policies for college graduates in different provinces are slightly different, mainly based on the policies announced by the provincial education examination institutes or the Education Department in that year.
