More than 500 universities and colleges in Japan are planning to hold additional entrance exams for applicants who fail to take the first ones due to the H1N1 flu pandemic.
The education ministry surveyed 1,096 universities and junior colleges across Japan that hold their own tests other than the country's unified preliminary entrance exams.
The survey shows that 545 public and private institutions, or nearly half the total, plan additional exams for students who were infected with the flu and could not take the first ones.
Rikkyo University in Tokyo will hold its second entrance exam on February 28th, 2 weeks after the original exam schedule is complete.
A university official says staff began preparing additional exams on 10 subjects since around June, shortly after the first flu patients were confirmed in Japan.
The official says preparations were not easy but the university made the decision to help applicants feel secure.
