In order to carry out the enrollment work of adult colleges and universities nationwide in 2003, the relevant matters are hereby notified as follows:
1. The enrollment of adult colleges and universities in 2003 must conscientiously implement the spirit of the 16th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, with the goal of cultivating and bringing up a large number of high-quality workers and professionals, and improving the quality of the entire nation, adhering to the direction of facing the majority of working professionals and serving local social and economic development, actively adjusting the professional structure of enrollment disciplines according to the needs of social and economic development, adhering to the principle of unifying quality, scale, structure and efficiency, and promoting and deepening various reforms in adult college enrollment.
2. Starting from 2003, the unified entrance examination for general colleges and universities nationwide will be held one month earlier. Provincial-level adult college admissions offices should adjust the time schedule for each aspect of the adult college admissions work according to the actual situation in the region. By simplifying and reducing work links, improving work efficiency, and advancing the start time of admissions, the admissions work for adult colleges and universities should be basically completed before the start of admissions for general colleges and universities (July 10) to ensure that the admissions work for adult colleges and universities and general college admissions proceeds in an orderly, coordinated, and smooth manner.
3. In 2003, there have been major adjustments to the adult college admissions examination subjects.

4. Further implement the requirements of administration according to law and recruitment according to law. Adult college admissions offices and adult colleges at all levels must continuously strengthen their awareness of the rule of law and strive to improve the self-restraint and supervision mechanism for enrollment work. All adult colleges and universities must standardize and improve their admissions regulations in accordance with the law, so that the admissions regulations not only become the service guide for colleges and universities to candidates, but also become the norms that constrain their own school-running behaviors.
5. On the basis of consolidating the results of online admissions in 2002 and ensuring the quality of admissions work, all provincial adult college admissions offices and adult colleges will further expand the number of institutions offering remote admissions and increase the number of people admitted remotely. Educational administrative departments at all levels, admissions offices of adult colleges and universities, and adult colleges and universities must attach great importance to this work, further proactively adapt to the reform of admissions methods in terms of ideological concepts, organizational forms, and working methods, establish and improve efficient and coordinated organizational structures and working mechanisms that are compatible with online admissions work, and invest necessary human and financial resources.
6. Adult college admissions offices and adult colleges at all levels should strive to improve the quality and management level of their staff, further establish and improve rules and regulations, strengthen examination management, and strictly enforce examination style and discipline. It is necessary to make full use of modern management methods to curb "taking exams on behalf of others" and other fraud and discipline violations.
7. In accordance with the requirements of the "Several Opinions of the Ministry of Education and the Ministry of Health on the Organization of Higher Medical Education" (Jiaogao [2002] No. 10), all competent departments must strengthen the regulation and management of medical majors in adult colleges and universities.

4. Examination
(1) Exam subjects
1． The examinations for undergraduate and junior college (higher vocational) students starting from high school are divided into unified examination subjects based on liberal arts and science. The common subjects in the unified examination are Chinese, mathematics, and foreign languages. Mathematics is divided into two categories: liberal arts and science. Foreign languages are divided into three languages: English, Japanese, and Russian. Candidates choose one according to the foreign language requirements of the school they apply for. Candidates who apply for undergraduate studies from high school are also required to take the exam for basic professional courses. The basic course for science majors is "Physics and Chemistry Comprehensive" (referred to as Physics and Chemistry), and the basic course for liberal arts majors is "History and Geography Comprehensive" (referred to as History and Geography). The above test questions are uniformly prescribed by the Ministry of Education.
All majors in public security adult colleges, medicine (except for the two first-level disciplines of traditional Chinese medicine and pharmacy), traditional Chinese medicine majors, and prison management majors and labor education management majors of the Central Judicial Police College have four unified examination subjects. The three public courses are the same as the examination subjects for junior college (higher vocational) starting from high school, and one professional basic course is organized and ordered by the Ministry of Public Security, Ministry of Health, State Administration of Traditional Chinese Medicine and Ministry of Justice.
The subject setting of the unified proposition examinations for the above subjects is shown in Appendix 1.
For admissions to adult colleges or departments (departments) in ethnic autonomous areas that teach in ethnic languages, the autonomous regions will set their own questions and organize examinations in ethnic languages.
Ethnic minority candidates who are taught in ethnic languages in areas where ethnic minorities live in areas apply for adult colleges and universities that are taught in Chinese. The Chinese language test questions are set separately by the Ministry of Education and are not translated into ethnic minority languages. Candidates use Chinese character answer sheets; other subjects (including the introduction of foreign language test questions) can be translated into ethnic minority languages and use the prescribed ethnic language answer sheets. Relevant provinces (autonomous regions and municipalities directly under the Central Government) can decide on their own whether to add ethnic minority language tests to the above-mentioned minority candidates, and are responsible for formulating test questions and organizing examinations.
2. There are three unified examination subjects for the starting point from junior college to undergraduate. The two public courses are politics and foreign languages, and one professional basic course is determined according to the subject category of the enrolled major. The comparison of various subject categories, majors and unified examination subjects is shown in Appendix 2. Except for civil law, which is ordered by the Ministry of Justice, and non-English foreign languages, which are determined by the admissions offices of each provincial adult college based on the local student situation and organize their own questions, the above unified examination subjects are all uniformly ordered by the Ministry of Education.
3. In addition to the above-mentioned unified examination subject examinations, the enrolling schools can decide whether to take additional professional courses according to the professional requirements under the unified organization of the relevant provincial adult college admissions offices. If additional examinations are required, the enrolling school must indicate this in the admissions brochure published by the relevant provincial adult college admissions office and organize the examination on its own. Before the end of May, a list of qualified candidates for the additional examination must be submitted to the relevant provincial adult college admissions office.
4. The full score for each question in all unified examination subjects is 150 points; the examination time for each unified examination subject from high school to undergraduate and junior college (higher vocational education) is 120 minutes, and the examination time for each examination from junior college to undergraduate is 150 minutes.
(2) Organization of the examination
1． The subjects of the unified examination are based on the requirements of the review examination syllabus promulgated by the Ministry of Education in August 2002. The grading work is organized by the provincial adult college admissions office. Candidates’ scores are notified to themselves but not announced. Examination papers will not be checked.

(2) The admission work adopts the admission system of "school responsibility and admission supervision", that is: among the candidates who meet the admission requirements for adult colleges and universities and whose test scores reach the admission score line, the admissions school will decide whether the candidates are admitted and the majors to be admitted based on the principle of "selective admission from high scores to low scores", and will also be responsible for handling the remaining issues. The provincial adult college admissions office shall review the admission list of the admissions school in accordance with the national admissions policy during admission, supervise its admissions work, and correct any situation that does not comply with the admissions policy. At the same time, each recruiting school must also play the role of the school's discipline inspection and supervision department, strengthen self-supervision within the school, and establish a self-discipline mechanism.

Among them, the minimum control score for art majors (except history, theory, editing and directing majors) from high school should not be lower than 70% of the minimum control score for the corresponding subject. Candidates' mathematics scores are not included in the total score and will be used as a reference when enrolling students.

The minimum control score for admission must be reported to the Ministry of Education for record.
(4) At the time of admission, the provincial adult college admissions office shall, in principle, submit files to the enrolling school based on the candidate's total scores in the unified examination subjects. For schools that have additional examinations for professional courses, the list of qualified candidates for the additional examinations will be submitted to the admissions school. The admissions schools will select the best from high scores to low scores based on the candidates' scores in the unified examination (for art and sports majors, on the basis that candidates meet the requirements for cultural courses, in principle, admissions will be based on the admissions school's professional courses scores from high scores to low scores).
