Reminder from the Ministry of Education: Beware of Fraudulent Information during the Enrollment and Admission Period of Universities | Relevant Departments | Ministry of Education
The enrollment and admission work for ordinary universities in 2023 is about to begin. The Ministry of Education, in conjunction with relevant departments, and in light of some false fraud cases that have occurred in some places in recent years, solemnly reminds candidates and parents to inquire and consult relevant information through official channels, not to have a mentality of luck, not to believe false information, and to be cautious of being deceived.
It is reported that in recent years, some social institutions and individuals have released information related to exams and admissions through online platforms, which has problems such as inaccurate policy interpretation and untrue information provision. Some even spread false information through fake or counterfeit official websites and public accounts of universities and admissions and examination institutions, confusing candidates and parents, committing fraud, and seriously disrupting the order of exams and admissions.
To this end, the Ministry of Education, together with relevant departments, has deeply implemented the 2023 college entrance examination escort action, carried out the special action of "lighting up the official website logo of authoritative examination and enrollment institutions", and has coordinated relevant Internet platforms to carry out authoritative logo on the official website, WeChat official account, etc. of provincial recruitment and examination institutions and universities, so as to facilitate the identification of the majority of examinees and parents, and access to formal enrollment policies and service information. In addition, the list of national higher education institutions with enrollment qualifications is published on the official website of the Ministry of Education every year. Candidates and parents can check and verify through the "National List of Higher Education Institutions" under the "Literature" section of the official website of the Ministry of Education.
In recent years, whenever the results of the college entrance examination are released, some social training institutions and individuals have become "internet celebrities" who attract traffic and create anxiety about filling out voluntary applications by saying "don't waste one point, don't waste the future" and "let every point be valuable.". Then, packaging and creating "experts" and "famous teachers", fabricating "internal information" and "internal data", claiming "big data volunteer counseling" and "one-on-one consultation", etc., to induce candidates and parents to purchase high and sky high priced volunteer filling consultation services.
The Ministry of Education reminds that relevant departments have never issued professional qualification certificates such as "College Entrance Examination Volunteer Planner". Before filling out the college entrance examination preferences every year, each provincial enrollment and examination institution will release the statistics of the college entrance examination results for the current year, the admission situation of various universities in recent years, and the reference materials for filling out preferences. Universities will also introduce the school's enrollment regulations, enrollment methods, and previous admission reference information, and there is no such thing as "internal information" or "internal data".
In addition, during the enrollment and admission period of universities, some illegal elements claim to "know a certain leader" and "know a certain recruitment office", and even commit fraud by forging documents, engraving seals, setting up registration offices and consultation phone numbers, impersonating university enrollment staff, etc., falsely claiming that they can "use backdoors" and "make special arrangements", and using "internal indicators", "flexible plans", "unplanned supplementary recruitment", "score reduction and supplementary enrollment" and other claims.
The Ministry of Education reminds candidates and parents that university enrollment strictly follows enrollment policies and regulations, as well as the school's enrollment regulations, to implement computer-based remote online admissions, with strict work processes and supervision mechanisms. The enrollment plan of universities is uniformly announced to the society by provincial-level enrollment and examination institutions, and there is no so-called "internal indicator". Universities will publicly solicit voluntary admissions for unfinished enrollment plans in their provinces, and there is no such thing as an internal reduction in scores for "supplementary enrollment" or "supplementary enrollment". Regular enrollment does not incur any additional fees, and anyone who needs to charge a deposit, admission fee, or quota fee cannot be trusted.
The Ministry of Education also reminded that it is necessary to enhance the awareness of prevention, properly keep personal information such as ID number number and examinee number, and login information such as volunteer filling system password, and not disclose it to others to prevent volunteers from being tampered with by others.
