High-level athletes recruited by ordinary colleges and universities are broadly called "sports special students". Generally, those who have the level of national second-class athletes can participate in the college entrance examination sports special examinations in various provinces, and some colleges and universities are eligible to recruit high-level athletes, mainly referring to national first-class athletes. This is an elite sports group in colleges and universities. With their sports expertise and cultural foundation, they passed the comprehensive selection examination of sports achievements and cultural achievements and entered colleges and universities. During their four-year study in school, these special students can participate in university-level sports events such as Universiade and CUBA on behalf of the school.
Art specialty students refer to candidates who have outstanding talents in a certain art field (vocal music, instrumental music, dance, drama, calligraphy, painting, etc.). Candidates who want to obtain the qualification of art specialty students must first take the unified examination for art specialty students (the unified examination is usually the provincial joint examination), and the results of the provincial joint examination will serve as the main basis for colleges and universities to recruit art specialty students. Registration for the exam generally ends at 10, and the exam is held at 12. The test items are divided into vocal music, instrumental music, dance, drama, painting and calligraphy. Candidates can choose one of them to participate. Test scores are divided into qualified and unqualified. After the candidates pass the unified examination for art specialty students, they generally take the examination organized by the institutions that recruit art specialty students. Generally, colleges and universities that enroll students will organize the test of artistic talents individually or jointly, and some colleges and universities recognize the test results of other colleges and universities. Candidates who pass the exam should sign an agreement with universities and enjoy the corresponding preferential treatment in the college entrance examination. Only in this way can candidates qualify as art students. Candidates who have obtained the qualification of art specialty students should also take the unified college entrance examination, and their registration and voluntary reporting should be carried out simultaneously with other candidates. After signing an agreement with a university, art specialty students usually choose this school as their first choice. Art specialty students can generally enjoy a discount of 20 points when they are admitted to the college entrance examination, but the scores of candidates can not be lower than the admission control scores of the same batch in colleges and universities. After being admitted to colleges and universities, art specialty students usually participate in the activities of the school student art troupe.
