Analysis of the Influence of University Admission Capacity in Tokyo on the Trend of Admission to the University in the Neighboring Prefecture

Abstract

The purpose of this research is to analyze the influence of the university enrollment capacity in Tokyo on the trend of admission in the university in the neighboring prefecture.

Based on the results of the analysis, the entrance capacity of the neighboring prefecture is stronger than that of Tokyo. The findings showed that girls’ admission trends are more strongly influenced by university enrollment capacity than the admission trends of boys. Furthermore, the enrollment capacity of a high-performing academic university has a stronger influence on the admission trends than the enrollment capacity of a university with low performance.
