The admission rate is determined by many factors. Colleges and universities report their plans to their own competent departments, the Provincial Department of Education or the Ministry of Education in March and April each year. The increase or decrease of colleges and universities is basically based on the previous year, which is well-founded, including the basic data of enrollment majors and the number of people in each batch.
Except the institutions directly under the ministries (985 and some 2 1 1), most of the other first-and second-class institutions are under the jurisdiction of provincial education departments, which constitute the main force of undergraduate universities in China.
