This study selected China and India as research targets to compare their trends of gender parity in expanding higher education. The data on the gross enrollment ratio of male and female in both countries were collected from the World Bank from 1973 to 2018. The study applies the Gender Parity Index (GPI), which according to Trow’s definition, interpret the trends of gender parity in three stage within expanding higher education system. Furthermore, the study uses ARIMA model to predict the trends of GPI in higher education systems in both China and India toward 2030. This study suggests the trends of gender equality have made significant progress in expanding higher education systems. As our prediction, the higher education system is going to be more favorable to female in the future.
