Seoul regular high school students failed to enter even half of 4-year universities

It was analyzed that the low rate of students entering 4-year universities in the metropolitan area is closely related to the concentration of students in universities in the Seoul area. Lim Seong-ho, CEO of Jongno Academy, said, “In metropolitan areas such as Seoul, Gyeonggi, and Incheon, the rate of entering 4-year universities is significantly lower than the national average, and on the contrary, the rate of entering junior colleges is relatively high.”

The tendency of students in the Seoul area to avoid entering universities in regional areas was also cited as an important factor. CEO Lim Seong-ho added, “Return students in the Seoul area do not simply take the N number with the goal of entering top universities, but their reluctance to advance to local universities far from their residences may be the main cause of the N number of college admissions.” Even if there is a prestigious university in a local area, they are unable to apply willingly due to the burden of study costs or problems with commuting to school. On the other hand

In contrast, when students from regional areas enter universities in the Seoul area, local governments prepare various support measures such as providing dormitories.

It’s the enemy.
