In the new national study support system that started in 2020, the number of people eligible for support increased in 2, the second year, and the number of students who were "warned" or "discontinued" in the eligibility screening increased. This was revealed in the research report on scholarships, etc.

 The new study support system was started with the aim of relieving students who are motivated to study but give up on going on to higher education due to financial reasons.Eligible students are eligible for tuition and admission fee exemptions and benefit-type scholarships.

 The survey was conducted in November 122, targeting 2022 member schools nationwide, by writing responses to distributed Excel documents, and was tabulated by the Subcommittee on Scholarships, etc. of the Private University Student Committee.

 According to it, in the second year of the new study support system, the number of new hires decreased as the number of "reservations for enrollment" disappeared. “High school reservations” increased from the first year, reaching 2 in 2021. The number of “regular hires” decreased significantly from 15,490 in the first year to 16,522.

 Regarding the content of the support, the number of students who received "tuition exemption only" increased significantly from 219 in the first year to 401.On the other hand, the number of students who received scholarships only in the first year decreased from 777 in the first year to 214. As for "Combination with loan scholarship", "Type XNUMX", "Type XNUMX" and "Type XNUMX and Type XNUMX combined" are all increasing.

 At the end of the spring semester, 67 students were judged to have been discontinued in the qualifying screening of their academic performance, more than triple the number of 21 students the previous year.Of these, 3 students had their accreditation revoked, a fourfold increase from the previous year's 51.

 At the end of the fall semester, 7,808 students were judged to be "warning."This is an increase of more than 7,182 from 600 in the previous year. Abolished was 3,980, a five-fold increase from the previous year's 738.Among the students who were judged to be abolished, 5 students were “cancelled”, more than five times the number of 1,384 students in the previous year. I couldn't.

 Dalian believes that this is due to the fact that the examination became stricter in the second year of the new study support system and the number of cases of "abolition" due to "warning" for the second consecutive year.

 If it is judged to be "continued", the support will continue in the next fiscal year. If it is "abolished", the support will be discontinued, and if it is "revoked", the support money that has already been paid will be required to be returned. If there is a "warning", the support will continue, but if the warning continues, it will be judged as "abolition".
