Based on the results of application trends for admission to private universities and junior colleges in 5, announced by the Japan Private Schools and Promotion Mutual Aid Corporation, we will pick up undergraduate systems and discuss educational reforms and entrance exams for private universities. I would like to highlight and introduce the reforms.

*Detailed article "Up to 53.3% of private universities are below capacity, 92.0% of private junior colleges are below capacity"

　Looking at the application trends for admission to private universities and junior colleges in 5, there are only two undergraduate systems that have seen an increase in enrollment capacity rates: ``Dentistry'' and ``Agriculture.'' Although there are no established undergraduate systems such as "Information Studies," "International Studies," and "Sports Studies," an independent calculation based on the names of the departments shows that the enrollment capacity rate for these three systems is increasing. I understand.

■Increase in admission capacity rate (XNUMX systems)

"Dentistry", "Agriculture", "Information", "International", "Sports"

There are six undergraduate systems that have over 100% enrollment capacity: Medicine, Agriculture, Science and Engineering, Social Sciences, Physical Education, and Art.Our own statistics have also shown that the admission capacity rate for ``information science'' and ``sports science'' is over 6%.

■Enrollment capacity rate of 100% or more (XNUMX systems)

"Medicine", "Agriculture", "Science/Engineering", "Social Science", "Physical Education", "Arts", "Information", "Sports"

■Increase in enrollment capacity sufficiency rate and 100% or more enrollment capacity sufficiency rate (XNUMX systems)

"Agriculture" "Information" "Sports"

The following universities are among the 5 schools with increasing admission capacity rates and the 100 schools with enrollment capacity rates of 8% or higher: Dentistry, Agriculture, Science/Engineering, Information, and Social Sciences. This is an example of educational reform and entrance examination reform in seven systems: ``Japanese,'' ``International,'' and ``Sports.''
