As a result of the analysis, the experience of attending an innovation high school has a positive effect on college entrance, the probability of entering a four-year university, while the difference between general middle school graduates and innovation middle school graduates on college entrance is not significant. The interaction between innovation middle school and innovation high school on the location of the university and the university ranking is significant, indicating that the linkage of innovation education is advantageous for college entrance. On the other hand, there is no difference in CSAT scores between general school graduates and innovation school graduates. These results show that Gyeonggi-do innovation high school has a positive effect on college entrance of its students. In particular, it is confirmed that the positive effect is amplified when both middle and high schools are in innovative education.
