CHINA: Universities use cash to grab top pupils
24.05.2010
With the
college entrance examination still a month away, some universities have
already begun to fight for the best high school graduates by offering
generous scholarships, writes Wang Wei for China Daily.
One third-level university has offered grants of 320,000 yuan to attract elite students and many other second- and third-tier universities have also boosted their scholarships in reaction to a sharp decline in the number of high school students applying for university places. The number of university applicants in Beijing dropped from 100,000 last year to 80,000. Universities in China are divided into three levels based on the quality of education they provide. The best ones are called key universities, followed by second- and third-level universities. Qiao Pan, Beijing Hospitality Institute's vice-director of admissions, described a range of scholarships on offer to top students. The biggest, worth 320,000 yuan, is for students who ace the tests in their home provinces and apply for a tourism management major at the institute.
