Afghan Girls Request Inclusion in University Exam

Female students who have completed the twelfth grade say they want to participate in the kankor exam. 

They called on the Islamic Emirate to allow them to participate like boys in this year’s kankor exam. 

Sahar said she went to her school because of the entrance examination form, but she was not given an entrance exam card and returned home disappointed. 

“This year we went to our schools to receive the entrance exam form, but they told us that they have not yet given any information from the higher education department about taking the entrance exam for female students,” said Sahar. 

“When we went to school, they didn’t allow us to receive the kankor exam form and said that still nothing is clear now about girls’ entrance exam,” said Zahra, a graduate student. 

Meanwhile, some female students called on the Islamic Emirate to reopen schools and universities for them. 

"Whatever law they say, we observe; they said hijab we wear hijab, we just want them to reopen universities and schools for girls,” said Zakira, a graduate student. 

“Reopen education doors for girls so they can serve their country,” said Farkhonda, a graduate student. 

Some women's rights activists said they believe that the removal of women from society will bring unfortunate consequences. 

"Removing women and girls from society has unfortunate consequences,” said Azada Bakhshi, a women’s rights activist. 

The Ministry of Higher Education refused to talk about the entrance examination of female students. 

Meanwhile, although the National Examinations Authority has not named female students, it has said that they have distributed kankor entrance forms to 150,000 students across the country. 

“150,000 kankor entrance forms have been distributed for the 1402 entrance examination, and 106,617 will be enrolled in higher and semi-higher education,” said Fazal Haq Hashimi, the spokesman of the National Examinations Authority.  

the National Examinations Authority said that this year's entrance exam will be held in five rounds, the first round will be held in eleven provinces on the 29th and 30th of Saratan, the second round will be held in twelve provinces, the third round will be held in ten provinces, the fourth round will be held only in the capital, and the fifth round will be a miscellaneous test.
