Due to the risks posed by the war, the government is proposing to change the rules for the college admissions process and exempt high school students from the state final exams. Since there is a need for legislative regulation of a flexible and safe admissions process for 2027, Bill No. 15254, “On Amendments to Certain Laws of Ukraine Regarding the State Final Assessment and the 2027 Admissions Process,” has been submitted to the Verkhovna Rada, writes "Komersant Ukrainian".

- Competitive selection for admission to higher education programs based on a complete general secondary education, a junior specialist educational and qualification level, the educational and professional degree of junior bachelor, and the higher education degree of junior bachelor is carried out based on the results of the 2024–2027 entrance examinations, conducted using the organizational and technological processes of external independent testing and a creative competition (physical aptitude test) in cases provided for by law;
In addition, it is stipulated that applicants will take tests in Ukrainian language, mathematics, Ukrainian history, and one elective subject.
