Excuse me, does the country have a policy of exempting college students from tuition fees in rural low-income households?

The first 13 press conference of the Ministry of Education in 2007 is scheduled to be held in the lecture hall on the second floor of the North Building of the Ministry of Education. Responsible comrades of the Ministry of Finance and the Ministry of Education will introduce the financial aid policy for students from poor families in secondary vocational schools to the press.

Solemnly promise: you don't have to worry about any "tuition fees" when you get the university notice.

Having said that, I also hope that more media will actively promote national policies. We can say responsibly that all college students admitted to public schools know that they have been admitted to universities before you receive the admission notice, so you don't have to worry. You don't have to worry when you receive the admission notice from the university. As long as you get the notice and see that there are a series of policies to help students with difficulties behind you, you can report directly to the school where you have been admitted without any worries. This is what we solemnly told reporters here, and also through reporters.

This autumn, the state invested 8.2 billion vocational school grants, 20 times as much as in the past.

Since autumn, the central government and local governments have estimated that the funds used for aiding students will be about 654.38+054 billion, including 8.2 billion for secondary vocational education. Most of the funds used for aiding students by governments at all levels in China are used for secondary vocational education. Starting this autumn, it is estimated that there will be 8.2 billion national grants from the central and local governments for secondary vocational schools in one semester. By 2008, the investment will reach164 billion in two semesters.

Rural students in secondary vocational schools all enjoy the support of state grants.

Generally speaking, at present, about 90% students in secondary vocational schools can get state grants, and 9 students in 10 can get state grants. Why is this report? First of all, because most of our students in secondary vocational schools come from rural areas, according to statistics, about 80% of the students in secondary vocational schools come from rural areas, and most of these children's families are difficult. This time, the state stipulates that all students from rural areas in secondary vocational schools will enjoy the support of state grants.

Secondary vocational schools can't offset state grants with objects or services.

We also have a clear rule here, that is, all secondary vocational schools can't support state grants in kind or this service or that service, and they can't support it. Moreover, this student-oriented bank savings card is not allowed to charge student card fees, deposits and other fees. It can't be deducted from the state grants that students get, and it is not allowed. This paper introduces all the links from application to distribution of state grants for secondary vocational schools.

How private secondary vocational schools enjoy the national bursary policy.

First, how can private schools enjoy the national bursary policy? Specific measures shall be formulated by local finance and education departments. Our two departments (Ministry of Finance and Ministry of Education) put forward only one principle in this document. For example, we stipulate that local finance and education departments should make corresponding provisions on the conditions, standards, enrollment and employment, and self-financing measures of private secondary vocational schools that enjoy subsidy policies in light of local actual conditions, depending on the specific operation place.

The process of application, evaluation, approval and distribution of state grants for secondary vocational schools.

The second question introduces the process or link of application, evaluation, approval and distribution of state grants in secondary vocational schools. How to apply, how to evaluate, how to approve and how to issue? I don't fully understand one project after another in the document. Generally speaking, there are four aspects or four links to introduce to you.

The main characteristics of the new policy of student financial aid in secondary vocational schools

What are the main features of the new student financial aid policy in secondary vocational schools? I summarize it in five aspects: First, it is mainly funded by the government. The Opinions and Measures stipulate that the implementation of secondary vocational education is mainly based on state grants, supplemented by on-campus scholarships, students' work-study combination, internship and school tuition reduction. State grants are jointly funded by the central finance and local finance, with the central finance accounting for the bulk, reflecting public property as the main body.

1. All the poor freshmen who are admitted shall go through the admission formalities first, and after the family's economic situation is verified, special funds shall be fully withdrawn from the tuition fees at the rate of 10%, and poor college students shall be assisted to complete their studies by means of "award, loan, assistance, supplement and reduction";

2. In order to enable students from poor families to successfully complete their studies, the college has set up financial aid for students with difficulties;

3. 12% students can enjoy tuition fee remission, which is divided into free, semi-free and one-third;

4. Set up a work-study program, and spend 18% of the tuition every year on students' work-study programs.

The specific policies of different provinces and cities are different, and there should be small differences between universities. It is suggested that you contact the academic affairs office of the school before entering the school, or go to the school website for consultation, and find the teacher in charge of related matters in time after entering the school.

Generally speaking, one of the following conditions can be met:

(1) holds a financial aid certificate for poor students in rural compulsory education; Or the family is in rural areas and graduated from junior high school in rural areas (including townships, towns and counties), and the children of absolutely poor or low-income families hold the certification materials issued by the village and township (town) organizations where the household registration is located.

(2) Students from urban poor families have a low sense of security.

(3) Poor students receiving special education.

(4) Children of poor immigrants in Three Gorges Project and South-to-North Water Transfer Project. Give priority to orphans, children of martyrs, children of disabled families, children of single-parent poor families, or children whose families are particularly difficult due to major natural disasters or the death of major family members.
