Under the background of the normalization of epidemic prevention and control, the USTC organized a number of strict measures to ensure in advancethe safetyand orderly arrival of new student in order to strictly comply with the requirements of the local and educational system of epidemic prevention and control management. The freshman submittedthe relevant documents and application for admission in advance in the health punch card system, and after the three-level audit of “CLASS – FACULTY- USTC”, they enteredthe school by verifying the health code and big data trip code at the entrance of the USTC. On the day of the freshman check-in, the school providedfree nucleic acid testing services for the entire staff, and the school also organized a second free nucleic acid test within three days. In order to achieve peak diversion, the school further optimizes the check-in process, new students can complete most of the check-in process in advance on the school’s orientation website and real-time broadcast of the new student check-in situation, simplifying the on-site check-in procedures and reducing the gathering of personnel.

After checking the “two codes” and taking the temperature, freshmen entered the gymnasium and had their photos taken on site for identity verification, and reported to each college after successful verification. In order to ensure the smooth entry of new students, USTC has set up a “green channel” for 20 consecutive years for new students. Freshmen who have already applied for loans from their place of domicile, or with the “Application Form for Identification of Students with Family Financial Difficulties” on site, will be examined by the admission faculty on site and apply for admission procedures and defer payment of tuition and accommodation fees.
