While '大学に入る' is neutral, more formal contexts might use '大学に進学する' (to advance to university).
This phrase covers both the admission process and the act of starting university, unlike English where 'admission' and 'enrollment' are distinct.
Combination of 大学 (university) and 入る (to enter).
This phrase is often used in formal contexts such as school guidance or university admission discussions. It can also be used to describe the emotional or practical aspects of starting university life.
