Traditional arts favored in art recruitment
Art recruitment has kicked off at China’s universities. 53 schools are licensed to recruit students with specialities in the arts, but the chance for enrollment is only one percent. And as competition gets fiercer, universities are using new methods to guarantee that recruitment remains open and fair.
Beijing and Shanghai lead the action with the first exams, mostly joined by students specializing in music, vocal and dance performance. In Beijing, candidates must pass a general exam held by the local education administration before they apply at universities. However, in other parts of the country candidates can apply directly, depending on the needs of the school.
