MPs propose to stop enrolling students in higher education institutions for bachelor’s and master’s degrees in the evening and part-time programs, as well as for junior bachelor’s degrees, starting next year.
A group of MPs has registered Bill No. 10092 on amendments to certain laws regarding the state final certification and the 2024 admission campaign in the Verkhovna Rada, the parliament’s website reports.
The bill proposes to amend the law “On Higher Education” to establish that in 2024, admission to higher education will be carried out in a special procedure determined by the executive body in the field of education and science.
According to the proposed amendments, in 2024, competitive selection for higher education on the basis of complete general secondary education is carried out on the basis of the results of the external independent evaluation in 2021 and/or entrance examinations in 2022-2024, conducted using the organizational and technological processes of external independent evaluation and creative competition (physical ability competition).
The draft law also proposes to establish that in 2024, the entrance exams will include the Ukrainian language, mathematics, history of Ukraine, and a subject of choice (physics, chemistry, biology, foreign language, geography, Ukrainian literature).
In addition, the authors of the draft law propose to supplement the Law “On Complete General Secondary Education” with provisions exempting students who complete their studies at each level of complete general secondary education from state final certification. For students who will complete their primary education in 2024, it is proposed to conduct state final certification in a pilot mode.
