Nine RMUTs insisting on using co-admission system

On behalf of the president in the RMUT Presidents Conference, Assoc. Prof. Dr. Numyoot Songthanapitak, the president of Rajamangala University of Technology Thanyaburi (RMUTT), said that nine Rajamangala Universities still insists on admitting new students by using co-admission system in order to help the students save their cost which normally is much paid when admission examinations are organized by different university. Students and their parents must pay for transportation, examination fee, accommodation and others. In addition, this can support the policy of Office of the Higher Education Commission (OHEC) as well.”

The president of the conference also added that “this-time admission will be conducted like previous one, which the students will have a one-time test and can select 4 choices of consequence major subjects and preferred university. To have well prepared, it will be organized earlier and during the test, each university will send their representatives to work together. For more clarified detail, the issue will be continually consulted again among nine universities meeting on coming July 25th, 2011.”

“For RMUTT, the university has set 50% of total student admission for the aforementioned system. The remains will be for quota and normal admission one. The quota system will be perhaps increased to 30% because last time, we had satisfied with these students, they behaved so well on both study and university activity. Surely, this-year number of acceptance will be not reduced”, said RMUTT president.
