The total number of students enrolled has dropped, leading to a significant number of vacant seats. This year, the overall admission rate has decreased, with a notable decline compared to the previous year.

The number of empty seats has increased substantially, with over 23,000 remaining unfilled. Further information on this trend is available, including details on the impact on government and private institutions.
