The Minister of Education, Nouredine Nourished, announced during his intervention in plenary session this Monday, July 14, 2025 in the assembly of representatives of the people, that the ministry decided to admit all the students who obtained an average of 14 or more in the entrance exam to the pilot colleges.
Nouredine Ennouri said that this decision responds to the orientations of the President of the Republic, Kaïs Saïed, and follows a study of the capacities available to welcome these students.
The Minister indicated that the initial reception capacity was estimated at 3,850 students, with 1,167 places remaining vacant in the various pilot colleges. He also pointed out that the general orientation of national exams this year has emphasized tests evaluating the skills of reflection and analysis, rather than on ready -made knowledge.
The results of the entrance exam to the pilot colleges (the “sixth”) were recently published, with 2,683 students assigned to these establishments.
