The Ministry of Education and Science in 2011 is planning to introduce an electronic system for receiving admission documents in higher educational establishments, Education Minister Dmytro Tabachnyk said during a selector conference, NRCU reported.

“We have received the task to think about the introduction of an electronic system for the submission of documents by the entrants in 2011,” he said. In addition, the Ministry considers changing the entry campaign term.

According to Tabachnyk, the draft rules for admission to universities in 2011 will be posted on the Ministry’s website in a few days after completion of the current entry campaign. This year, due to reduction of filings, applicants had to stand in long queues to get to reception commissions.

Due to the numerous appeals of the applicants and their parents, the entry campaign was extended by five days, until August 5.
