本期主题：The Institution of Merit: A Study of Chinese College
Admissions

摘要：
We study factors behind the geographical distribution of admissions at elite universities in China. We empirically estimate a model of Chinese college admissions. We find that elite Chinese universities have remarkably similar preferences. Contrary to popular beliefs, there is little evidence that elite Chinese universities favor home-province applicants. Rather, they consistently prefer students from richer provinces even though college tuition fees in China are fixed by the government at a low and affordable level and have little impact on admissions. One possibility is that universities prefer students with higher ability and students from richer provinces have higher ability because such provinces spend more on pre-college education.
