Degree education
Independent colleges
Independent colleges are the private sector of public universities, which offers for-profit degree education for those who are not admitted to public universities. They were first set up in Zhejiang as a business model since the 1990s, yet a national reform has aimed to transform them into vocational or private universities independent of their affiliated universities since 2019.[10] For example, Zhejiang University City College and Ningbo Institute of Technology, Zhejiang University were transformed into public universities,[11] with the latter renamed as NingboTech University. The reform led to students' protests in 2021, after which the government suspended the reform.[12] In Zhejiang, the reforms for Hangzhou Dianzi University Information Engineering School, Zhejiang Gongshang University Hangzhou College of Commerce, Zhijiang College of Zhejiang University of Technology had since been suspended.[13]
