Tibetans who are regarded as “separatists” or allegedly involved in “illegal” religion are being banned entry to China’s universities, reports the Tibetan Review, quoting a recent bitterwinter.org report saying that university authorities are required to consider “the candidates’ patriotism and fluency in Marxism, not academic merits” when looking at admissions. China’s Ministry of Education has issued new regulations, The Tibet Autonomous Region’s 2022 Regular College Admissions Regulations”.
