After consulting the Education Bureau, there are many hard and fast conditions for the college to be renamed as a university. Among them, the college renamed as a university must be a master's degree authorized unit, while Weifang College is not a master's degree authorized unit, so it cannot be changed to a university.
Weifang College is a full-time comprehensive undergraduate college approved by the Ministry of Education of Shandong Province, located in Weifang, a national civilized city.
