The Ministry of Education stipulates that CET-4 is not linked to a degree certificate, which means that whether students pass CET-4 will no longer be a necessary condition for obtaining a degree certificate.

1. This policy aims at lowering the high requirements for students' English level, reducing their academic pressure, and encouraging students to give full play to their advantages in other fields. In the past, many colleges and universities regarded the achievement of CET-4 as one of the necessary conditions for issuing degree certificates, which brought great pressure to many students. In order to obtain a degree certificate, students not only need to meet other academic requirements, but also need to pass CET-4.

Second, there are some problems with this approach. First of all, CET-4 is only a way to measure students' English level, not the only way. Secondly, linking CET-4 scores with degree certificates may make some students lose the opportunity to develop in other fields. The new policy of the Ministry of Education is to change this situation.

Under the new policy, students can obtain degree certificates by taking other English proficiency tests or meeting the English proficiency standards set by the school. This can not only reduce the pressure on students, but also encourage students to give full play to their advantages in other fields and improve their comprehensive quality.

Four, the implementation of this policy requires colleges and universities to adjust and improve according to their own conditions. Colleges and universities need to formulate new degree awarding standards to ensure that students can meet the academic requirements of the school. At the same time, colleges and universities need to provide sufficient English teaching resources to help students improve their English.
