(About the author: National Excellent Teacher, Distinguished Expert of "College Admissions", focusing on the college entrance examination for 20 years, and publishing more than 20 monographs).

In 2023, the Ministry of Education officially approved a total of 29 undergraduate colleges and universities, of which 9 independent colleges were successfully converted

Jiahua College of Beijing Technology and Business University - Beijing Institute of Financial Technology.

Chengdu College of Sichuan University of Foreign Chinese - Chengdu College of Foreign Chinese.

College of Modern Arts and Sciences, Shanxi Normal University - Shanxi Institute of Electronic Science and Technology.

Jianghuai College of Anhui University - Hefei Institute of Technology.

Anhui Normal University Wanjiang College - Wuhu University.

School of Information Engineering, Fuyang Normal University - Fuyang Institute of Technology.

Dianchi College of Yunnan University - Dianchi University.

Wenhua College of Yunnan University of the Arts - Kunming University of Media and Communication.

Zhangjiajie College of Jishou University - Zhangjiajie University.

The above 9 undergraduate universities, 2 of which are organized by the local **, the nature of running schools has changed from private to public: Shanxi Institute of Electronic Science and Technology, Hefei Institute of Technology.

The other two are run by state-owned enterprises and run schools according to the nature of "private non-profit": Wuhu University and Fuyang Institute of Technology.

For candidates and parents across the country, the Beijing Institute of Financial Technology has attracted more attention.

Because of the source of students from the other 8 universities, they mainly recruit candidates from this province.

The source of students of Beijing Institute of Financial Technology mainly recruits candidates from other provinces.

Beijing Institute of Financial Technology, formerly known as Jiahua College of Beijing Technology and Business University, was founded in 2004.

The school is located in Tongzhou, the sub-center of Beijing and an important core area for the development of "Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei integration".

At present, the university has 36 undergraduate majors, distributed in 6 disciplines of economics, management, art, engineering, literature and science, including 5 first-class construction majors in Beijing: finance, accounting, international business, financial engineering and visual communication design.

In recent years, the school has mainly enrolled students in the four disciplines of economics, management, art and engineering, and currently has nearly 4,000 students.

The school enrolls more than 1,200 students from 30 provinces across the country every year, and although the attention is relatively high, the admission score is not high (see the picture attached at the end of the article for details), because the school's tuition fees are much higher than many private universities.

The following table shows the school's fees in 2023:

Independent college, unique presence. They originated in the 90s of the last century, and emerged outside the system of public ordinary universities.

They are undergraduate colleges and universities established by public universities and social organizations or individuals, using non-state financial funds, carrying the aspirations of countless low-scoring candidates to study undergraduates. More than 300 independent colleges have contracted about 40 undergraduate enrollment programs across the country. However, controversy is like a lingering haze that haunts them. The relationship between independent colleges and their parent schools has been cut and disordered, so that they have been labeled as "private universities with red hats" and "copycat universities". To this end, in 2008, the Ministry of Education promulgated the Measures for the Establishment and Management of Independent Colleges, requiring them to complete the restructuring and transformation within five years. The five-year transition period has been a long way off, but most of the independent colleges are still standing. The Ministry of Education's documents seem to be a dead letter.

On May 15, 2020, the General Office of the Ministry of Education once again issued the "Implementation Plan for Accelerating the Conversion of Independent Colleges", requiring all localities to take the conversion of independent colleges as the top priority of the establishment of colleges and universities.

This time, independent colleges across the country have come up with conversion plans, showing unprecedented determination and courage. In half a year, all independent colleges in the country have formulated a work plan for the transfer, and the independent colleges organized by the universities affiliated to the department and the universities jointly established by the ministry and the province have taken the lead in completing the transfer. Today, more than 100 independent colleges across the country have been reborn under the new name, and they are like phoenixes that have been reborn from the ashes.

Among the independent colleges that have completed the transformation, 16 colleges have been officially approved to be converted into public ordinary undergraduate universities. These colleges have been transformed in different ways, and merging with local public vocational colleges is undoubtedly one of the most rapid ways. To illustrate with concrete examples:

The School of Business of Shanxi University merged with Shanxi Jiaotong Vocational and Technical College, Shanxi Construction Vocational and Technical College, and Shanxi Provincial Business School, and the new name is Shanxi Vocational University of Engineering and Technology.

After the merger of the School of Science and Technology of Hebei University of Science and Technology and Hebei Industrial Vocational and Technical College, it was renamed Hebei Vocational and Technical University of Industry, highlighting its engineering characteristics and strength.

The College of Science and Technology of North China Electric Power University merged with Xingtai Vocational and Technical College, and the new name is Hebei University of Science and Technology Engineering Vocational and Technical University, emphasizing its dual advantages in engineering and technology.

The City College of Hebei University of Technology merged with Chengde Petroleum College and was renamed Hebei Petroleum Vocational and Technical University, highlighting its expertise in the field of petroleum engineering.

The School of Science and Technology of Shihezi University merged with the Corps Police College, and the new name is Xinjiang University of Political Science and Law, further emphasizing its authority in the field of politics and law.

Old Teacher Tips.

1.Conditions for the conversion of an independent college into a public university.

Conversion of people to public"This major reform involves two core points.

First of all, the social school-running forces need to gradually withdraw from the schools they run to achieve a historic change in the main body of school-running. This process needs to be smooth and ensure that school order is not affected.

Secondly, strong financial support from the local government is key to ensuring the normal operation and sustainable development of the school. This requires in-depth communication between the two sides to reach a consensus.

2.Already, 13 independent colleges have stopped enrolling.

The 13 independent colleges are:

Beijing Normal University, Zhuhai Branch;

Pacific Institute of Finance, Fudan University;

Jinling College, Nanjing University;

College of Hallym, Nanjing University of Traditional Chinese Medicine;

Connie College, Nanjing Institute of Technology;

Liren College, Yanshan University;

School of Industry and Business, Hebei University;

School of Information Technology, Liaoning University of Science and Technology;

Northern College of Science and Technology, Shenyang University of Aeronautics and Astronautics;

School of Engineering, Shenyang University of Technology;

Chang'an College, Xidian University;

College of Science and Technology, Xinjiang Agricultural University;

Zhejiang College of Tongji University.

Next, let's just talk about Zhejiang College of Tongji University:

Zhejiang College of Tongji University, an independent college located in Jiaxing City, Zhejiang Province, was jointly founded by Tongji University, Jiaxing Education Development and Investment Co., Ltd., and Hongda Holding Group.

In 2021, Zhejiang College of Tongji University announced the enrollment regulations for that year, but after the college entrance examination, it disappeared like a ghost. People can't help but be curious about its current situation, and someone left a message on People's Daily Online to ask, and the Zhejiang Provincial Department of Education gave an answer.

It turned out that in 2021, Zhejiang College of Tongji University has started the transfer work. In order to create a better environment and conditions for the next transfer, all parties in the school have reached a consensus on "suspending enrollment and promoting transfer" after careful consideration. At the second interim meeting of the third board of directors of Zhejiang College of Tongji University, everyone unanimously agreed to promote the transfer work by terminating the school. Now, there is news that it will become a graduate campus of Tongji University. After a three-year transition period, it will be officially discontinued in 2024.

The changes in this academy are like a drama, with ups and downs and thought-provoking.

In addition, the following 7 independent colleges** have been disclosed that they are expected to be converted into public universities, but there is no definite news yet.

The seven schools are: Liren College of Yanshan University, Sifang College of Shijiazhuang Tiedao University, Chengnan College of Changsha University of Science and Technology, Oriental College of Science and Technology of Hunan Agricultural University, Xingxiang College of Xiangtan University, Chengxian College of Southeast University, and Guangling College of Yangzhou University.

Finally, I would like to attach to you the admission score line of Jiahua College of Beijing Technology and Business University in previous years, and candidates who are preparing to apply for Beijing Institute of Financial Technology in 2024 can make a reference.
