Tsinghua, PKU fight to lure top students

The fight for top gaokao scorers between China's top two universities heats up online.

In late June, recruiting teams at Tsinghua and Peking posted micro blogs that accused each other of "buying" students and making promises that couldn't be fulfilled, such as transferring students into more desirable programs after enrollment.

Both universities denied the accusations in online responses, claiming that they had strictly followed recruitment rules.

The Ministry of Education released a notice later that universities should not attract students with improper benefits, including preadmission contracts, large scholarships or promises that they can choose different majors after enrollment.

The recruiting teams from Tsinghua and Peking are fighting for a top student from Guangzhou Zhixin High School Ye Tong on June 25.
