Peking University is supposed to enroll eight impoverished students from Henan province this year. However, the university decided not to enroll the students in the seventh and eighth places because their grades, 542 and 536, respectively, were much lower than the other six students, with the student in sixth place scoring 667 in the college entrance exam.

北京大學2019年計劃在河南省貧困地區(qū)專項招生8人。但是，第7名考生考分為542分，第8名考生考分為536分，遠低于第6名考生的667分，因此，北京大學決定對第7名、第8名考生予以退檔。

The university said it decided not to enroll the two students because "it would be hard for them to complete their studies as their grades were considerably lower than their peers".

北大表示，對這兩名考生做退檔處理是因為“他們的分數(shù)明顯低于其他同學，入校后極有可能完不成學業(yè)”。

The university decided to replace the two students, who put Peking University as their first preference in the gaokao application, with other two students who put it as their second preference, but with much higher grades, both achieving 671.

對這兩名第一志愿考生退檔后，北京大學錄取了兩名第二志愿考生，分數(shù)均為671分。

對于此次輿論關(guān)注的考生“退檔”問題，北大招生委員會專門召開專題會議。

The university admitted malpractice in student enrollment in the national college entrance exam, or gaokao, on Sunday and decided to re-enroll two students it previously dropped because their grades were considerably lower than others, it said in a statement.

北大承認在高考錄取過程中存在不合規(guī)之處，并在8月11日發(fā)布聲明決定補錄因分數(shù)過低而被退檔的兩位考生。

【知識點】

為了縮小城鄉(xiāng)教育差距(narrow the gap between urban and rural schools)，促進教育公平，我國教育部在高考錄取中實施三個專項計劃，分別為：國家專項計劃、地方專項計劃和高校專項計劃。

國家專項計劃(National Special Program)定向招收貧困地區(qū)學生(students in poverty-stricken areas)。招生學校為中央部門所屬高校和各省(區(qū)、市)所屬重點高校，實施區(qū)域為集中連片特殊困難縣、國家級扶貧開發(fā)重點縣以及新疆南疆四地州。

地方專項計劃(Local Special Program)定向招收各省(區(qū)、市)實施區(qū)域的農(nóng)村學生。招生學校為各省(區(qū)、市)所屬重點高校，具體實施區(qū)域、報考條件由各省(區(qū)、市)根據(jù)本地實際情況確定，實施區(qū)域要對本省(區(qū)、市)民族自治縣實現(xiàn)全覆蓋。

高校專項計劃(Special Program for Colleges and Universities)定向招收邊遠、貧困、民族等地區(qū)(remote, impoverished and ethnic regions)縣(含縣級市)以下高中勤奮好學、成績優(yōu)良的農(nóng)村學生。招生學校為教育部直屬高校和其他自主招生試點高校，具體實施區(qū)域由有關(guān)省(區(qū)、市)確定。

According to the Ministry of Education, a total of 370,000 students from impoverished regions were admitted by China's 140 top universities, and 103,800 students were admitted to these universities in 2018.

教育部的信息顯示，共有37萬名來自貧困地區(qū)的考生通過專項計劃被我國140所高校錄取，其中2018年錄取的考生為10.38萬人。
