Instead, candidates will be given priority points with scores calculated from 1 to 5 points depending on the candidates' entrance exam results. Currently, there are 281 candidates receiving priority points, of which the most are English majors with 155 candidates.

In addition, the school plans to recruit 30% of the quota for candidates taking the specialized system exam to register for admission in the second wish. For the remaining quotas, candidates who want to be admitted must take 2 exams in Math and English. The total admission score is equal to the English score multiplied by 2 plus the Math score.
