The two good schools that were delayed by the name sounded like the people*** were actually 211
An individual's name plays a key role in social interaction, and it can instantly open the door for college students to socialize and win the favor of others. And just like the impact of a person's name, a university's reputation can also leave a lasting impression on people's minds.
In China, there are more than 3,000 colleges and universities, and not every one of them is as prestigious as Tsinghua University and Peking University. One might think that only these well-known institutions should be focused, while other ordinary undergraduate institutions are less important. In fact, even in the 211 project, there are more than 100 colleges and universities in China. For high school juniors who are so focused on their studies that they don't care much about the world outside their window, they may only know a few colleges and universities in the province. For some universities in other provinces, it is common to instinctively rely on the name of the school to make judgments, which can lead to them missing out on some excellent institutions.
The two originally powerful universities were misunderstood because of their names, which sounded like private universities, but in fact belonged to the 211 Project School.
The naming of universities in China usually follows certain rules, universities are often larger than colleges, and the names of universities often contain information such as the geographical location and characteristics of the school. However, some low-level universities or individual private colleges may choose an ambiguous and high-sounding name in order to confuse candidates and attract applicants, which directly affects a number of good institutions that are originally strong.
Chang'an University, for example, is an excellent institution that has been misled by its name. Chang'an University is a university directly managed by the Ministry of Education and located in Xi'an, Shaanxi Province. Perhaps due to the geographical location, many students from other provinces do not know that Chang'an University is actually a 211 engineering school, because Shaanxi has many well-known universities.
However, once you learn that Chang'an University is a double first-class university jointly supported by the Ministry of Transport, the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development, the Ministry of Natural Resources, the local ** and the Ministry of Education, you will realize that this is an extraordinary institution. Although it is not obvious in the name, the school is a leader in the fields of transportation engineering, geological resources and geological engineering.
When it comes to a 211 university, although it sounds like a private university, its admission score is actually not low. For Liaoning candidates, they need to have a score of at least 570 or above to have a chance of being admitted to Chang'an University, while those who want to choose their ideal major need to achieve a score of 600 or more.
Another 211, which is misunderstood as a pheasant university, is really frustrating. When it comes to Jiangnan University, as a student in the north, you may not be familiar with this name before going to college. Although students in the north are full of yearning for the term "Jiangnan", the direct use of it as the name of the university has made many students wonder if it is just a pheasant university that attracts students from other places.
In fact, students in the south are well aware that Jiangnan University is an old 211 university located in Wuxi, Jiangsu Province. Even for local students, there is a feeling of helplessness about this name. Jiangnan University, formerly known as Wuxi University of Light Industry, is the first choice for students interested in light industry majors due to its geographical location and school characteristics.
After changing its name to Jiangnan University, the school lost its original geographical location and characteristics, although the name sounds higher, but it also makes people feel more confused, and it is not clear what the level and characteristics of the school are.
In fact, Jiangnan University has a long history of running schools, and although the name may be confusing, the school has many excellent majors. Light Industry Technology and Engineering and Food Science and Engineering are both first-class construction disciplines, while textiles and chemical engineering are also one of the characteristics of the university. These excellent majors are worth choosing from, and among the 211 universities, the score line is relatively friendly, and students with a score of 580 or more can consider applying.
For misunderstood colleges, it's actually good for middle school students looking for opportunities. It is also common for students from other provinces to misunderstand the names of the above two schools, such as Donghua University, Yanbian University, Hohai University, etc. Although these schools belong to the 211 Project, they are relatively less well-known in other provinces. The reason why these schools remain "low-key" may not only be because of their names, but also because of their relatively remote location, similar to Shihezi University in Xinjiang.
Because these universities keep a relatively low profile, they do not attract as much attention as other 211 universities in the provincial admissions activities, and the score line is relatively friendly. For example, Yanbian University had the lowest score of 548 this year (Liaoning), while Shihezi University in Xinjiang had a score of 519.
Although the location of these schools may not be ideal, it only takes a score of 500 or more to get into a 211 engineering school. This is still attractive for some students who are pursuing prestigious schools, because in the current employment environment, a prestigious school background can bring a significant advantage to college students.
However, it is also necessary to remind students who are about to take next year's college entrance examination that China's colleges and universities are very rich in resources. Some schools are not widely recognized, but their strength cannot be underestimated. If students want to know more about a school, they should carefully search for relevant information and not just start with the name of the school, so as not to miss out on the best school for them.
