Jukusen, a cram school selection service operated by DeltaX Inc. (Headquarters: Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo; Representative: Tsuyoshi Kuroiwa), is pleased to announce the results of a survey regarding "university entrance ceremonies."
Entering university is a fresh start for students and a significant milestone for parents. However, unlike high school, university is a place for "independence." Consequently, many parents wonder, "Is it overprotective to go to the university entrance ceremony?" or "What are other parents doing?"
To address this, the Jukusen Journal conducted a survey of 100 parents of university students. We delved into the realities, including the percentage of parents who actually attended, their satisfaction levels, and what they wore on the day.
We hope this article serves as a helpful reference for parents considering how to support their children as they embark on this new chapter.
