Moldovan students in Romania unsatisfied with lack of matriculation methodology

Organizations of Moldovan students in Bucharest and Timisoara are requesting the involvement of the Romanian Ministry of Education in the fast-track issuance of a methodology of matriculating Romanian ethnics living outside Romania, Info-Prim Neo reports. In an open letter to Romania's Education Minister Ecaterina Andronescu, the student organizations are expressing their discontent with the lack of a proper methodology on the admission of students from the Republic of Moldova, and Romanian ethnics from Albania, Bulgaria, Macedonia, Serbia, Ukraine and Hungary. “Taking into account that the first round of admission for Romanian ethnics that graduated from Romanian lyceums will start in July and that the students are on their summer vacation since June 15, we consider in necessary that the Ministry of Education should issue urgently a methodology for the matriculation of Romanian ethnics”, the letter reads. “After all the entreaties made by our organizations in previous years we are profoundly disappointed that this year, too, the Ministry of Education has failed to consider this methodology”, it was said. The Organization of Bessarabian Students of Bucharest and the Organization of Bessarabian Students of Timisoara are nongovernmental, non-profit and non-political organizations.
