To prevent the spread of the novel coronavirus, the Higher Education Bureau of the Macao SAR has decided to postpone the four-university joint entrance examination for the 2020/2021 academic year to between 16 April and 19 April 2020, upon discussion with the four universities, namely University of Macau (UM), Macao Polytechnic Institute, the Institute for Tourism Studies, and Macau University of Science and Technology. The delay is to make sure that students have sufficient time to prepare for the examinations. UM’s entrance examination will also be held during the same period. UM says that it will make thorough preparations to ensure the health of examinees and working personnel.

Below is the latest timetable for the examinations of different subjects

Please pay attention to the important dates below:
