There is no joint exam for the self-study exam. Candidates who take a single subject examination and pass a subject will be issued with a certificate of conformity. After all subjects are qualified, academic certificates will be issued. There are two exams every year, and candidates choose exam subjects according to the situation.
RTVU also doesn't need exams. As long as you have the required relevant academic qualifications, you can sign up for school.
Network universities are independently proposed and organized by enrollment institutions.
Generally speaking, the self-taught examination and RTVU implement "lenient entrance and strict exit", and there is basically no entrance threshold; Both adult college entrance examination and online examination require examination before admission. The difference is that the adult college entrance examination takes part in the national unified examination, while the online examination is independently taken by the enrollment institutions. Judging from the difficulty of the exam, some online universities are well-known, and the majors they recruit are all strong majors in the school, so the entrance requirements are relatively high and the test questions are more difficult.
In order to improve the national education level and make more people get learning opportunities, the state provides various forms of continuing education. Especially in university education, in addition to the general college entrance examination, it also provides four channels: adult college entrance examination, higher education self-study examination, radio and television university and online education, which provides more choices and possibilities for those who have no chance to enter the university campus through the college entrance examination. But many people who need opportunities don't know how many choices they have, and they don't know the difference between these educational methods.
Adult college entrance examination mainly includes full-time study, amateur study and correspondence study.
Self-study is mainly based on self-study, and you can also participate in self-study classes organized by other social training forces or examiners.
There are two ways to teach online education. One is to teach online through the Internet, where students can browse classes, finish homework, ask questions and communicate through BBS, and the other is to teach face to face. Many international students who want to enter their favorite universities can complete their studies by applying for online colleges and receiving distance teaching.
There are two ways for RTVU: online classes and face-to-face lectures. For those who live in unstable places and may need to travel for a long time, they can consider choosing Radio and TV University to study because of its long stay. If you change your place of work or residence, you only need to register a letter of recommendation from RTVU, and students can continue their studies in RTVU in other cities without paying other extra fees.
All four methods can be studied after class, but for those with poor self-study ability and self-control, it is best to choose centralized teaching.

The fees of online universities are generally calculated according to credits, and different schools charge different fees. Generally, one credit is about 1 1,000 yuan. If you choose a major that requires 80 credits, the tuition fee is about 1 1,000 yuan.

Anyone who meets the relevant conditions can apply for a bachelor's degree.
However, there are still some differences in the validity of the four certificates. Self-taught exams are the most difficult to obtain academic certificates, so their recognition is relatively high.
