In addition, the Ministry of Education ’s College Students Division pointed out that the Ministry of Education issued the “Opinions on the Pilot Work for Enrollment Reform of Basic Disciplines in Some Universities” (also known as the “Strong Foundation Program”) in January this year. This year is the first year of implementation of the "Strong Foundation Plan". A few days ago, the enrollment brochures of 36 pilot colleges and universities have been released to the public one after another, and officially started the registration work of the "Strong Foundation Program" in 2020.
In the next step, the Ministry of Education will guide the pilot universities to do a good job in the follow-up links. The first is to optimize candidates' application services. Continue to carry out the "Strong Foundation Program" enrollment publicity and consulting activities, detailed publicity and interpretation of college entrance examination conditions, enrollment procedures and methods. The second is to strictly organize college assessments. Instruct colleges and universities in accordance with the needs of the selection and cultivation of top-notch innovative talents, and explore ways such as written examinations and interviews to thoroughly examine students' ability to analyze and solve problems and innovative thinking. Among them, the written test and the interview must be arranged in the standardized test site of the national education examination. The interview is conducted by experts and candidates in the "double random" lottery. The entire process of audio and video recording is to ensure fairness and justice. The third is to strengthen the enrollment supervision and management. Improve public information disclosure, increase discipline inspection and supervision, and seriously investigate and deal with violations of laws and regulations.
The Student Department of the Ministry of Education also stated that it will guide all regions to do a good job in the admission examinations for art majors.
The number of art test enrollment in 2020 will reach 1.17 million. The new coronary pneumonia epidemic has had a great impact on the art test this year. If we continue to organize school exams on the spot according to the time of previous years, usually one candidate will take the school exams of multiple schools, which will cause millions of people to move and gather in March and April. Potential risks brought by physical health and life safety will also affect the overall situation of national epidemic prevention and control. According to the relevant deployment of the central epidemic prevention and control, on March 12, the Ministry of Education held a video conference to deploy the 2020 art professional admissions examination.
The Ministry of Education requires colleges and universities around the country to put the life safety and health of candidates first, combining the characteristics of the selection of different professionals, and scientifically formulating school examinations based on the principles of focusing on science, strictly abiding by fairness, practicability, and ensuring safety. The plan shall be organized and implemented steadily to ensure the quality of talent selection.
On the basis of in-depth demonstrations by experts, various colleges and universities combined the characteristics of running schools and the selection of different art professionals to formulate examination work plans. In accordance with the principle of territorial management, relevant plans have been reported to the provincial provincial education administrative department's epidemic prevention and control leading group for review and record.
It is understood that a total of 199 colleges and universities organized online examinations for admission or primary selection this year. At present, 168 colleges and universities have completed online examinations (accounting for 84% of the college entrance examination colleges; involving 1.63 million candidates). The overall effect is good. It is expected that Online assessment will be basically completed in late May. After the college entrance examination, there will be 72 colleges and universities on the basis of primary elections to organize on-site assessment of candidates.
The Ministry of Education's College Students Division also stated that it has carefully organized and implemented special plans for key colleges to recruit rural and poor areas.
This year is the final year for a decisive battle to overcome poverty. It is of great significance to implement a special plan for the recruitment of key colleges and universities in rural and poor areas. Since 2012, the implementation of the special plan has achieved positive results, accumulating nearly 600,000 students, and initially established a long-term mechanism to ensure that students from rural and poor areas attend key universities. According to third-party evaluations, the special plan has been recognized by many parties, with a university satisfaction rate of 80%, students of 90%, and locality of 100%.
In response to this year's special situation, the Ministry of Education has recently made arrangements to make special plans. First, the implementation area remains unchanged. According to the spirit of the relevant central documents, poor counties in the region where the national special plan is implemented can continue to enjoy the national special plan policy after 2020. The second is to reasonably arrange follow-up related work. According to the deployment of the college entrance examination delayed by one month, reasonable arrangements for the work hours of the candidates for the special plan, such as registration, qualification review, admission and admission, etc. The third is strict admission management. Strengthen the supervision of the admission process before and after the event, urge local and colleges to earnestly perform their job responsibilities, strictly implement the enrollment policy and regulations, strictly manage the management of links such as filing and admission, and seriously investigate and deal with violations to ensure fair and fair admissions.
The College Student Department of the Ministry of Education also proposed to steadily promote the re-examination of postgraduate students.
The national master's degree entrance examination for 2020 has registered 3.41 million people, an increase of 510,000 compared with last year. In order to coordinate the epidemic prevention and control and the re-examination of postgraduate students, the Ministry of Education has recently carried out the following related work:
One is to clarify policy requirements. On April 14, the General Office of the Ministry of Education issued the "Notice on Doing a Good Job in the Re-examination of National Graduate Students in 2020." The notice made it clear that the re-examination work this year must adhere to the basic principle of "three guarantees": ensure safety, strictly implement the epidemic prevention and control requirements, and effectively protect the life safety and physical health of candidates and candidates; ensure fairness, no matter what The re-examination methods must be strictly managed by the re-examination organization, and resolutely maintain the fairness and impartiality of the national education examination; ensure scientificity, strict re-examination assessment standards, adhere to comprehensive measurement, comprehensive evaluation, and selective admission to ensure the quality of admissions.

During the event, a total of 177,000 candidates asked online questions, and national admissions units responded to more than 460,000 questions from candidates.
The fourth is to require colleges and universities to strictly re-examine the organization and management. For colleges and universities that choose online re-examination, it is required to adopt "one platform, two identification, three random, four comparison" and other methods to ensure fairness and justice. "One platform" means that the admissions unit that conducts remote re-examination uses the same re-examination platform for the same major to ensure that the re-examination process requires uniform specifications; "two identifications" refers to face recognition and identification of witnesses to prevent test replacement; "three random" "Refers to randomly selecting the order of candidates, randomly determining the composition of the tutor group, and randomly selecting re-examination questions to ensure the fairness and justice of the re-examination assessment;" four-matching "refers to passing the examination database, academic qualification database, population information database, and integrity archive , Compare the information of the candidates, strengthen the supervision of the candidates' identity review and re-examination process, and strictly prevent cheating.
