Is Shanghai Customs College only approved in advance?

No.

There are also normal batches, but the majors and scores are different, and the early batches are higher. This was a big difference in the past, but now the difference is very small, because it does not include distribution. Whether you enter the customs or take the civil service examination, you must take the unified social examination. Because it is not 985 and 211, it is restricted when applying for and recruiting good units, so be careful with high scores.

Extended information

According to the relevant regulations of the Ministry of Education, some schools with basically the same or similar enrollment categories, nature, and majors and some schools approved by the National Education Commission for early admission are gathered together. Early admission is carried out before large-scale enrollment, and these colleges are called early admission colleges.

For colleges and universities that admit early admission, the control scores of each school will be determined according to different levels and characteristics. The admissions school will determine the number of candidates' files to review in accordance with relevant regulations, conduct a comprehensive assessment, and select the best for admission. Schools that offer early admission generally include PLA academies, armed police academies, academies affiliated with the Ministry of Public Security, and a few local academies approved by the Ministry of Education. Approximately 30 colleges and universities participate in early admission each year.
