On Aug 27th, the class of 2025 undergraduate students arrived at USTC, with the passion of writing a new chapter of their academic lives and achieving their dreams. For the first time, new student orientation was carried out at the multi-purpose stadium.

I want to express my gratitude to them, and I cannot wait to start my academic life in USTC.” Another student from the School of Physical Sciences said, “Teachers encourage me to take part in various activities and try to challenge myself. I am ready to master any new knowledge coming in my way.” Besides that, there were two students from the same high school who were accepted by USTC together.
