On the morning of 21 March 2014, the Academic Foundation Department of the University of Cambodia organized the entrance examination for new enrolled students, Term II, Promotion 12, academic year 2013-2014 at the Conference Center. The total numbers of students who registered to take the entrance examination was 163 students. They registered in five colleges: including College of Arts, Humanities and Language, College of Law, College of Management, College of Science and Technology, and College of Social Sciences – comprising of majors such as in Literature and English Language, Law, Accounting, Business Management, Economics, Finance and Banking, International Business, Marketing, Human Resource Management, Hospitality and Tourism Management, Information Technology, International Relations, and Development Studies.

There were two kinds of exam papers given out. One exam paper focused on specialization in a particular major and the other focused on either general knowledge, moral civics, or history which was related to student’s chosen major. The time allotted for exams focus on specialized majors was 90 minutes, whereas the length of exam on the related topic was 60 minutes.

Out of 163 students there were only eight students absent. Five students in the College of Arts, Humanities and Language, one student in the College of Social Sciences, and two students in the College of Management.

The entrance examination committee of the University of Cambodia organized the entrance exam. They invited nominated officials of Ministry of Education, Youth, and Sports to partake in overseeing the exam. However, according to Mr. Sok San (Deputy Director of Registration Office, Department of Higher Education and as Deputy Head of Proctor Commission of the Commission for Entrance Examination) Ministry officials were preoccupied with the Annual Summit of Education and were not able to join the examination
at UC.

Nonetheless and despite the rain the University of Cambodia organized the entrance exam as scheduled, successfully conducted the exam, and submitted the documents and report to MoEYS. There were no problems during the entrance examination, no cheating, and no interrupted noise, and so on so forth.
