In the case of confirmation of infection No admission for exams 3 universities in Niigata prefecture

Three national universities in Niigata Prefecture, such as Niigata University, have decided not to allow test-takers who have been confirmed to be infected with the new coronavirus.

The three national universities in Niigata Prefecture, Niigata University, Nagaoka University of Technology, and Joetsu University of Education, will prevent other students from becoming infected if a student becomes infected with the new coronavirus during the first half of the test, starting this month. In order to give priority to things, we have decided not to allow the test.

In addition, from the viewpoint of schedule and fairness, the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology will not take measures such as conducting transfer examinations or making pass / fail decisions based on the center examination.

On the other hand, if the candidate who has been infected is cured by the second half of the next month, which has already submitted the application, we will consider accepting the test.

Each university will ask students to wear a mask during the exam.

Regarding the response to a new coronavirus infection in a university entrance examination, Minister of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology Minister Haikuuda will send the examinee to public and private universities in each country on the 30th of last month at the House of Representatives Budget Committee on March 3. From the viewpoint of securing opportunities for students, it has been made clear that they have been asked to take flexible measures, such as conducting transfer examinations and making pass / fail judgments with reference to the university entrance examination center exam.
