In September, 20 14, the State Council issued the "Implementation Opinions on Deepening the Reform of Examination Enrollment System", proposing to create conditions to gradually cancel the enrollment batches of colleges and universities, and to carry out the pilot reform of enrollment batches in qualified provinces from 20 15.
After the general direction of the policy was clear, the reform of merging two and three admission batches in various provinces accelerated. By 20 16, Hebei, Guangdong and other provinces 15 merged three batches of undergraduate courses.
Bie Dunrong, director of the Higher Education Development Research Center of Xiamen University, analyzed that the background of the formation of the batch admission system is that China's higher education is underdeveloped, the gross enrollment rate is relatively low, and higher education is in the elite stage. With the development of higher education in China, higher education has entered the stage of popularization, and the admission method of college entrance examination needs to be changed accordingly. "It's only a matter of time before we finally go this way."
"Two or three enrollment mergers have an impact on two colleges, but it is good news for three colleges." Zhang said, a lecturer at the Institute of Higher Education of Tongji University, that some local ordinary undergraduate colleges lack school-running characteristics, while independent colleges and private undergraduate colleges rely on the market to customize enterprise talents, interact with the industry more, and absorb the power of industries and enterprises to enter schools. The school-running mechanism is flexible and the school-running strength is constantly improving. After merging two or three enrollment, it will have an impact on the former class of schools.
"In the past, when it was divided into batches, it was almost impossible for the three colleges to recruit outstanding students. It is now possible to recruit better students. " Chu affirmed the fair significance of the reform to the three universities.
Henan Chenggong University of Finance and Economics is a private undergraduate college. Its predecessor was an independent college built in cooperation with henan university of economics and law. On March 20 12, it was transformed into an independent undergraduate college with the approval of the Ministry of Education. This year, Henan Province merged the second and third batches of undergraduate enrollment for the first time, which also means that Henan Chenggong University of Finance and Economics will enter the second batch of enrollment in Henan and other places.
Wu Zeqiang, dean of Chenggong College of Finance and Economics in Henan Province, said: "After the merger of the two books and the three books, the original artificial classification of colleges and universities was broken, and the prejudice of society against private colleges and universities was dispelled, so that colleges and universities could compete fairly at the same starting point. This is a concrete manifestation of promoting educational equity. "
