author:Hunan Education Release

Central South University of Forestry and Technology is a veteran undergraduate university with a history of 66 years, and is the only university in Hunan Province with forestry engineering, forestry and ecology as its characteristic advantages, and a "double first-class" construction university in Hunan Province.

Please introduce the overall situation of the school's enrollment this year, and what are the highlights or new changes?

The school's enrollment changes this year are mainly manifested in six aspects. First, the enrollment plan. The total enrollment of the school this year is 8,200, an increase of 490 over last year. Among them, 4,723 people are planned in the province, an increase of 243 people from last year. Second, enrollment majors. Two new undergraduate majors were added, Intellectual Property and Digital Economy. Third, the professional category. The school splits 7 major categories such as computer science and electronic information, and directly recruits students according to majors to provide candidates with more professional choices. Fourth, subject selection requirements. This year, there are 45 science and engineering majors that require physics and chemistry, including software engineering, computer science and technology, electronic information engineering and other majors, which were more popular in previous years; 8 majors, including engineering management and logistics management, require physics, landscape architecture requires biology, geographic information science requires geography, and the other 22 majors are not limited to subjects. Fifth, enrollment in experimental classes. The school offers wood science and engineering (academician excellence class), forestry, ecology and biotechnology pottery casting experimental class, which are directly included in the college entrance examination enrollment catalog, and implements "undergraduate-master-doctoral" training. Sixth, Hunan Forestry Special Post Enrollment. The school recruits 280 forestry special post students according to the plan, the enrollment majors are forestry, forest protection and economic forestry, and the three major selection requirements are physics + chemistry. Students are free of tuition during the school period, and those who graduate on time and pass the assessment are directed to work in grassroots forestry institutions in the source of students to ensure that there are posts.

What is special about the school's 2024 admissions policy? What preferential policies have been introduced by the school for excellent high-scoring candidates? What is the policy for students to change majors?

Our school implements the enrollment policy of "one recognition and one commitment" and the policy of "one permission and one priority". First, the recognition of policy bonus points. When adjusting files and arranging majors, our school recognizes the bonus point policy of each province, but it does not exceed 20 points. Second, promise to enter the gear and not retreat. Candidates who apply for the first time in parallel volunteering, fill in the "professional obedience", and whose physical conditions meet the admission requirements of the major, the school promises to admit them without withdrawing from the file. Third, students are allowed to change majors. At the end of the first semester, students who have an average score in the top 10% of their majors can choose their majors independently. Students in the second year and below can apply for changing majors in accordance with the notice requirements of the school and each college to change majors, and those who pass the assessment can transfer to the new major. Fourth, priority will be given to high-scoring candidates to change majors. For the general candidates who are in the top 10% of the first submission and 30 points above the submission line, if the college entrance examination admission major is not the first choice major, at the end of the first semester, the student can apply to the school to study the first choice major of the college entrance examination.

Since the reform of the college entrance examination in Hunan Province, Hunan Province has been implementing the "college professional group" filing model, Central South University of Forestry and Technology has adjusted the professional group setting in Hunan Province this year?

Professional grouping requirements: The subject selection requirements of the majors included in the same group must be the same. Starting from 2024, the requirements for elective subjects will be implemented nationwide, and the professional group setting of our school in Hunan Province will be changed compared with previous years due to the adjustment of subject selection requirements. Chinese-foreign cooperatively-run schools are grouped separately; Among the general majors, our school classifies them according to their disciplines, and divides the 45 majors selected as "Physics + Chemistry" into two college professional groups, and the other majors are listed as one group according to the subject selection and requirements, and the group is no longer subdivided. When candidates fill in the application form, they need to consider the changes in the professional grouping and grouping plan this year, and reasonably refer to the admission data of previous years.

What are the characteristics of the "Forestry Special Post Students" enrollment program?

Our university continues to undertake the undergraduate orientation training of "forestry special post students" in Hunan, and plans to enroll 280 students from 72 counties and cities in our province, including 175 in forestry, 70 in forest protection, and 35 in economic forestry. The application conditions, voluntary filling, application and enrollment and employment policies are all implemented in accordance with the regulations of the superiors. Compared with last year, the enrollment plan has decreased by 58 students, the subject selection has been adjusted to "Physics + Chemistry", and the number of years of work service has been adjusted to "not less than 6 years".

What are the suggestions for candidates to increase their chances of admission to Central South Forestry University?

Here are three suggestions for candidates' reference:

First, the first choice or the same university volunteer chooses to fill in the "Zhongnanlin" first, which is conducive to the priority search of "Zhongnanlin" in many colleges or universities (groups) volunteers.

Second, fill in multiple "Zhongnan Forestry majors (groups)", which is conducive to searching for "Zhongnan Forest" volunteers many times among the majors (groups) of many colleges and universities. In particular, candidates in this province, in addition to filling in the general volunteers, eligible candidates can also apply for the national special projects, local special projects and Sino-foreign cooperative school-running volunteers of our university.

Thirdly, fill in the professional volunteers according to their preferences and "professional obedience", which is conducive to candidates to grasp the opportunity to actively choose majors and avoid the risk of "entering and then retreating" as much as possible, so as to avoid being transferred to unsatisfactory majors due to less majors or being degraded because they only fill in popular majors and do not obey professional adjustments. Our school adheres to the practice of "entering the file without retreating" for the candidates who apply for the first time in parallel volunteers, pass the physical examination, and obey the adjustment of majors, and when the six professional volunteers cannot be met in turn, they will be transferred and admitted to the majors that are not full of plans in the professional group.
