According to data from the University Grants Committee (UGC), the proportion of local students admitted to eight universities via the Joint University Programmes Admissions System (JUPAS) has dropped from 80% in the 2015/16 academic year to a historic low of 74% in the 2024/25 academic year. This indicates that universities are increasingly recruiting students through non-JUPAS channels, such as International Baccalaureate (IB) results and overseas qualifications.
