Some time ago, Lu Wei, a graduate of Beijing Institute of Technology, returned to her hometown and became a directional Selected Graduates in Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region. Talking about this choice, she said: "With the help of the national funding policy, I successfully completed my studies. I am duty-bound to return from my studies and build my hometown. "
Like Lu Wei, thanks to the increasingly sound student financial aid system, more and more students are no longer out of school because of family financial difficulties, but also get incentives for self-improvement and all-round development. The reporter learned from the Ministry of Education that at present, China’s student financial aid has realized the combination of multiple policies of "award, assistance, loan, exemption, diligence, supplement and reduction", with an annual subsidy of 160 million people and an annual subsidy of more than 290 billion yuan.

Fu Huiping was born in a remote mountain village in Hongya County, Meishan City, Sichuan Province. In 2012, her father was accidentally injured at the construction site, resulting in lifelong disability, which made the poor family worse.
"Just when we were most embarrassed, the care of the party and the government came quietly." Fu Huiping said that during junior high school, on the basis of the "three exemptions" policy of compulsory education, she enjoyed an annual living allowance of 1,250 yuan for students from poor families and an annual education poverty relief fund of 2,000 yuan. During senior high school, I will enjoy 3,000 yuan of state grants and 1,500 yuan of educational poverty relief funds every year.
With the continuous support, Fu Huiping was able to study with peace of mind. Last year, she was admitted to Sun Yat-sen University with excellent results. At the same time, she received a subsidy of 5,000 yuan from 1000 yuan and Yucai Education Foundation for freshmen, and applied for a student loan.
"Along the way, I remember everyone who helped me and every student fund." Fu Huiping said: "I want to turn care into the driving force to move forward, study hard, and pass on love and hope."
To protect people’s livelihood and warm people’s hearts, student financial assistance is related to education equity and people’s livelihood well-being. In recent years, from the establishment and implementation of the pre-school education funding system, to the exemption of tuition and miscellaneous fees for students with financial difficulties in ordinary high schools, to the establishment of national scholarships for secondary vocational schools, and the introduction of national funding measures for college students to enlist in military service, the scope of student funding has gradually expanded and the scale has steadily increased, achieving three full coverage of the funding policy "all classes, all schools and all students with financial difficulties in families".

The relevant person in charge of the Ministry of Education said that with full consideration of China’s economic and social development and the changes in students’ needs for assistance, the funding policies for each school section will be gradually improved.
"China’s student financial aid policy system includes not only the policy of helping the poor, but also the policy of rewarding the excellent and encouraging and guiding. The introduction, adjustment and improvement of each financial aid policy have been fully investigated and demonstrated, which not only draws lessons from international common experience, but also considers China’s economic and social development, and strives to solve the urgent problems of the people, fully demonstrating the characteristics of China." Ding Xiaohao, a professor at Peking University Institute of Education, said.
Help is more accurate
Big data analysis has become a staff assistant for student financial assistance.
Li Yafeng, from Zhangbei County, Zhangjiakou City, Hebei Province, was both excited and anxious when he received the admission notice from Xi ‘an Jiaotong University: "There was a rainstorm and flood disaster this summer, and our family suffered serious economic losses. I don’t know if I can apply for a difficult subsidy in a situation like mine? "
When I was at a loss, the phone call from the school counselor solved the urgent needs of Li Yafeng’s family. "Before entering the school, the teacher gave me a detailed introduction to the funding policy, and guided me to apply for a special subsidy for disaster relief and apply for a student loan. At the time of registration, students will be admitted through freshmen ‘ Green channel ’ I entered school smoothly, and the school also distributed necessary daily necessities such as mattresses. " Li Yafeng said that these cares made him feel very warm.
In the process of student financial aid, how to ensure that no one is left behind, that no student is dropped out of school because of family financial difficulties, and how to put every penny into practice and play its role? "Accuracy" becomes the meaning of the title.
"Precision funding should be supported by informationization, so that data can become a staff assistant for student funding." Sun Zao, deputy secretary of the Party Committee of Xi ‘an Jiaotong University, introduced that the school has set up a big data analysis and service platform, comprehensively opened up the business systems of 16 departments, including academic work, teaching, enrollment and employment, and built a multi-dimensional and full-cycle growth file for students, so as to accurately depict students and accurately identify the aided students. For abnormal situations such as sudden changes in consumption habits, decline in academic performance, irregular attendance and rest, through early warning information, counselors and class teachers are reminded to follow up in time to carry out difficult subsidies, academic counseling, employment counseling, psychological assistance and other related work.
Accuracy is the inevitable requirement and the basic method of student financial aid. Henan province has fully implemented the national funding system, implemented the data periodic reporting system, realized the informationization of funding management, and also developed a facial recognition supervision system to promote the funding into the "one card" distribution of benefiting the people and farmers; Peking University opened the Yanyuan sailing project to help the funded students in a grid way, so as to realize the cross coverage of the financial aid managers and sailing instructors for students with financial difficulties; Zhongnan University of Economics and Law encourages faculty and staff to integrate home visits of poor students into work such as out-of-town investigation, exchange and discussion, social practice, etc., and strive to improve the accuracy of the identification of funded objects … … Schools around the country take measures to ensure that student financial assistance is fairer and more efficient.
"Starting from formulating the basis for identification, refining the working procedures, and establishing a comparison mechanism, we can accurately identify the aided students, find the accurate base, use technical means to carry out smart funding, and use big data analysis to carry out invisible funding. Nowadays, the accuracy and timeliness of the implementation of student financial assistance policies have been significantly enhanced." Ding Xiaohao said.
