Looking at the total number of entrance examination results for private universities, the number of applicants has decreased from the previous year.At the time when the application started, the decrease in the number of applicants for the difficult university in urban areas became a hot topic, but when looking at the overall total, the decrease was smaller than initially expected (97% compared to the previous year). ).Even so, the total number of applicants has decreased by more than 10, so the impact is not small.While the number of applicants is declining, the total number of successful applicants has increased by more than 7, so the ratio of private universities as a whole is declining.
Looking at the results of entrance examinations by region, the number of applicants in each of the "Metropolitan area," "Kinki," and "Shikoku" areas fell below the previous year's level, but in all other areas, it increased from the previous year. The “Tokai” area has increased slightly, but the “Hokuriku” and “Chugoku” areas have increased by more than 10% year-on-year.It is probable that many of these districts wanted to go on to a local private university.Therefore, it can be said that the decrease in the number of applicants for private universities as a whole is mainly due to the decrease in the number of applicants for urban private universities in the Tokyo metropolitan area and Kinki area.In the Tokyo metropolitan area and Kinki area, the number of successful applicants has increased by 2016 to XNUMX or more, so the ratio of the entire district is also decreasing.For these reasons, it can be considered that the tendency of the number of successful applicants to decrease, the ratio to increase, and the difficulty of entrance examinations to increase due to the stricter capacity management that started around XNUMX is almost disappearing.
