Romania's reformist Save Romania Union (USR) has submitted a bill seeking to abolish special admission exams that high schools and colleges can organise alongside the national assessment, arguing that the separate examinations deepen inequalities in the education system.
The bill was submitted by USR deputy Corina Atanasiu and USR senator Ștefan Pălărie on August 19 and proposes amendments to Pre-university Education Law No. 198/2023, including the repeal of provisions allowing colleges and high schools to organise their own admission competitions for ninth grade.
