    August 10, 2011

    PanARMENIAN.Net - The recently-introduced 12-year education system did
    a disservice to Armenian universities. In academic year 2011-2012, the
    universities will only educate 2340 students (out of 3583 applicants)
    while in previous years the figure exceeded the one cited by 10 times.

    As the press secretary at the Assessment and Testing Center
    Gayane Manukyan told a PanARMENIAN.Net reporter, "this year, we
    had 60-year-old applicants; there were university applicants from
    Thailand, India; with those demobilized from military service making
    up the majority of male students."

    According to Ms. Manukyan, 1006 people applied to Yerevan State
    University, with 694 accepted; the Law and Foreign Relations department
    will educate 82 and 57 first year students respectively.

    No application was filed at the departments of Reactor Physics and
    Telecommunications.

    This year, the number of applicants at the State University of Theater
    and Cinema topped the previous records.
