大學入學考試從八十三學年度試辦推薦甄選，接著八十七學年度推出申請入學，九十二學年度合併為甄選入學後，九十六年又推動繁星計畫。這些模式相近的入學管道實施狀況如何，是否達到預期的實施成效，有否產生任何不良的效應以及如何改進等，是所有相關機構必須嚴肅面對檢討的問題。本研究以資料蒐集、文獻探討與對高中輔導教師問卷調查的方式進行瞭解，並提出檢討改進建議。 本文共分三大部份，第一部份先說明甄選入學與考試分發入學管道，其次簡介甄選入學與繁星計畫的實施概況；第二部份先以文獻探討與資料彙整，探討甄選入學的實施成效，內容包括甄選與非推甄生的人格特質差異，校系認同與學習成就的表現，考生家庭與學習背景對甄試的影響，方案實施的公平與客觀性，以及甄選入學平衡城鄉差距的看法。而後進行問卷調查，對象為北、南兩區共109位高中職輔導教師，調查內容包括甄選入學與繁星計畫實施成效的20 個問項，以便瞭解他們對甄選入學、繁星計畫的優缺點及滿意度等問題的看法。第三部份則是就甄選入學與繁星計畫的實施，除對大學與高中提出檢討、建議外，還包括下列數項建議：一、專責機構與研究的配合改進推廣；二、入學管道的設計宜配合教育生態的改變；三、評估考生能力工具與方式多元化；四、面對M 型社會的相關配套措施；五、入學管道從寬則校內篩汰制度宜從嚴。

Currently, there are several modes for high school graduates to be admitted to colleges/universities in Taiwan. The CARS (College Admissions via Recommendation and Selection) mode was initiated in 1994, and the CAA (College Admissions through Application) mode was implemented in 1998. In 2003, these two modes were merged into the CAS (College Admissions via Selection) mode. In 2007, the MSP (Multi-Stars Project) mode was added and high school graduates are offered another alternative for admission to colleges/universities. This paper focuses on the CAS mode and the MSP mode and discusses their impact over the years. This paper begins with a short introduction of the college/university admissions modes currently in use in Taiwan, specifically the CAS mode and the MSP mode. This is followed by a brief presentation and discussion of relevant data regarding the different modes since their implementation. The paper then focuses on the impact of the CAS mode and the MSP mode, with data gathered from a questionnaire survey among 109 secondary school counseling teachers who attended a CEEC workshop earlier this year. The last section of the paper offers practical suggestions not only to the colleges/universities involved but also to future amendments of the college/university admissions system.
