Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Public Health Anutin Charnvirakul announced that the TCAS Round 3 testing fees will be waived to alleviate the financial burden on students and parents. This initiative provides an opportunity for all Thai students to pursue higher education.

 

During a policy presentation and inspection at the Ministry of Higher Education, Science, Research and Innovation (MHESI), the 57 year old deputy prime minister instructed the ministry and the Council of University Presidents of Thailand (CUPT) to implement this initiative for the 2023 academic year, branded as TCAS 67. It allows students to apply for up to ten faculty ranks free of charge, saving each individual a maximum of 900 baht.

 

Nawada Nuengnit, a representative student from Triam Udom Suksa School, expressed her support for the initiative. As a student from Trat province part of a project designed to increase the number of doctors from different provinces, she believes this initiative will give more children access to education and increase support for round 3 students, especially those from different provinces or those whose families cannot afford to support their application fees.
