The event provided students with in-depth information about Thailand\u2019s university admission system, along with comprehensive guidance on how to prepare for the upcoming admission cycle.<\/p><p>The opening ceremony was presided over by Professor Dr. Sombat Thamrongthanyawong, President of Walailak University, who also delivered a special talk entitled \u201cTurning Your Dreams into Reality with Walailak University.\u201d His presentation offered perspectives and inspiration to help students make informed decisions about their educational pathways and move confidently toward their future goals.<\/p><p>One of the major highlights was a presentation by Associate Professor Dr. Chalie Charoenlarpnopparut, TCAS System Manager of the Council of University Presidents of Thailand (CUPT), entitled \u201cGetting to Know TCAS70.\u201d The session provided the latest updates and changes to the TCAS system, with particular emphasis on the development of TCAS Portfolio, which enables students to create their portfolios automatically, reduce preparation costs, and follow CUPT standards. The system is designed to make the application process more convenient and help students prepare effectively for the Portfolio round of TCAS70.<\/p><p>Following the session, Assistant Professor Dr. Neeranart Kaewprasert Rakhangthong, Director of the Center for Educational Services, shared valuable application strategies in a session entitled \u201cTop Secret: Which Admission Round Is Best for You and How to Apply to All Programs for Free.\u201d She provided practical guidance on choosing the most appropriate admission round based on each applicant\u2019s strengths and potential, helping students develop effective application strategies and increase their chances of university admission.<\/p><p>In the afternoon, students participated in the Walailak Open House, where they explored 58 academic programs available for Academic Year 2027. Faculty members and current students from the University\u2019s various schools provided personalized guidance on program selection and professional portfolio preparation. Some academic programs also offered students the opportunity to submit applications and participate in admission interviews directly at the event.<\/p><p>The \u201cGet Ahead with TCAS70 at Walailak University\u201d event served as an important platform for students to prepare confidently for university admissions while developing a clear and accurate understanding of the TCAS system. The event also strengthened collaboration between Walailak University and schools throughout Southern Thailand through the active participation of guidance counselors and school administrators.<\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section
