Peking and Tsinghua, China's top universities in Beijing, plan to admit more students to their postgraduate programs next year, today's Eastday.com reported.
The two schools will start to receive registration for next year's postgraduate enrollment test from late September, according to the same report.
Peking University will probably enroll 200 more students in 2004 than this year's 3,900 and mark the first year that the school admits more than 4,000 students a year to its postgraduate programs, university officials said yesterday.
The programs will be offered at the university, its sub colleges of medicine and software engineering and a postgraduate school in south China's Shenzhen.
Officials with Tsinghua said the university will also expand its admission scale of postgraduate programs next year, but they didn't specify the size of the enrollment.
