Disclosed is a cell selection method including a sample preparation step of preparing a sample by performing staining of nucleic acid in each of cells by a first fluorescent dye; and hybridization with respect to an evaluation target region in DNA in each cell by an evaluation probe including a second fluorescent dye; a light receiving step of applying light to the sample and receiving fluorescence from the first fluorescent dye and fluorescence from the second fluorescent dye; and a selection step of selecting an analysis target cell on the basis of intensity of the fluorescence from the first fluorescent dye and intensity of the fluorescence from the second fluorescent dye, wherein the first fluorescent dye is a dye that emits fluorescence having a first wavelength, and the second fluorescent dye is a dye that emits fluorescence having a second wavelength different from the first wavelength.
