[앵커]

I finished the SAT in the 3rd Corona 19 pandemic, but this weekend and next weekend, intensive assessments were again conducted by the university such as essay writing and interviews, again causing an emergency.

The Ministry of Education operates an intensive management period for each university until the 22nd.

It is too early to be relieved that the SAT is over.

This time, it is an emergency for quarantine when evaluating each university, such as essay writing and interviews.

The college-specific testing schedule, which was delayed after the SAT, will run for two weeks through the 13th, with a focus on the weekend.

210,000 couples are expected to travel this weekend and 190,000 couples next weekend to write essays and interviews.

Like the SAT, the testing centers are separate for each college assessment.

First, self-quarantine candidates go through the admissions process for each university at eight testing centers across the country.

On the day of the test, examinees with suspicious symptoms, such as fever, are taken to a separate testing room within the university.

However, confirmed patients cannot perform the test.

[최은옥 / 교육부 고등교육정책실장 : 지금 질문 주신 확진자뿐만 아니라 자가격리자에 대해서 응시기회를 부여하고 안 하고 좀 그런 경우가, 다른 경우들이 있어서요. 그런 경우들에 대해서 기준을 좀 통일하기 위한 그런 논의를 정부에서 시작했다는 말씀을 드리고요.]

The Ministry of Education has set the ‘Period of Intensive Management by Universities’ until the 22nd.

In particular, the One Strike Out system applies to facilities that violate quarantine regulations in Seoul’s university districts.

Additionally, all middle and high schools in Seoul will switch to remote classes for two weeks starting next week.

However, only those grades can be admitted to the school at the discretion of the school principal during the necessary periods, such as the high school admission evaluation and the final exam for the second semester.

Elementary schools maintain their current academic operations due to concerns about the gap in care.
