University admissions in Gabrielland

In Gabrielland, all universities, both public and private, select and admit students through a diverse set of ways and techniques. Some universities, usually smaller privately-owned ones, only require administrative checks and examinations, and are usually located in more rural and sparsely populated areas. All state-run universities require some sort of exam or test to be admitted into, and the way these tests or examinations are conducted differ from each university and major selected by the student, however, starting in the year 2004, a national examination, named the Joint Gabrielt and Arsyan People's Entrance Exam, is offered to students, with various subcategories and subjects offered depending on the desired major and field of study in university. Admission to most state-run universities occur in three stages, the invititation phase, national exam phase, and independent exam phase. The invitation and national exam phase are considered "national levels", and the independent exam phase to be "regional".

National level

In 2004, the chancellery of the people's enlightenment, together with the ministries of education in all the three Gabrielt realms and with the backing of the parliament, offered the first Joint Gabrielt and Arsyan People's Entrance Exam to pupils graduating from high school. The move was done in an effort to swiftly and easily communicate the resources or material needed to select and admit students from such a vast region spanning different realms and education systems, and to ease the strain on the already burdened admissions system of individual applications technique used before the national exams. The national exams were seen as a way to conduct testing at a massive and standardized way in order to speed university applications.

All state-run universities participate in the national entrance exams, although quotas for this selection path differ.

Subjects

The JGAPEE consists of two parts, a mandatory part covering basic skills and knowledge such as the standard Gabrielt language, basic quantitative abilities, and Gabrielt history, as well as a second part which consists of specialized subjects and questions tied to the major or field of study one wishes to enter in university. The specialized subjects are grouped together in what is known as a "stream", in which the appropriate major will only take students who have done the appropriate stream. Students are free to take no more than three streams in total. Below are the specialized subjects for each stream:

Stream	Subjects
Art	Drawing, Sketching, Art History and Knowledge
