The Ministry of Education, Ministry of Public Security and Ministry of
Agriculture and Rural Affairs jointly issued a Notice launching a Service Rural
Revitalization college-admissions special plan, to be implemented from the 2030
university admissions cycle. The Notice says since 2012 targeted enrollment
programs for rural and former-poverty areas have widened rural students’ access
to higher education and supported more equitable regional admissions. To
implement central decisions and the Education Development 15th Five-Year Plan
and align with the county-level ordinary high school revitalization action, the
existing special enrollment arrangements will be restructured into the new plan,
with graded responsibilities and layered assistance to make educational support
more precise and to bolster talent supply for rural revitalization.
