You’re dropping a <?php construct into a string. Break it up and use the string append operator to put things together.

Something like

$content = '<div style="border: 0px solid rgb(201, 0, 1); overflow: hidden; margin: 15px auto; max-width: 736px;"><a href="'
   . <?php echo get_theme_file_uri('/register/applicant_functions/registration.php' ); ?> . 
    '"></a></div>';

I think you need to read the developer documentation.

$content = '<div style="border: 0px solid rgb(201, 0, 1); overflow: hidden; margin: 15px auto; max-width: 736px;"><a href="';
#content .= get_theme_file_uri('/applicant_functions/registration.php' );
$content .= '"></a></div>';

Note that you should not use echo statements inside a shortcode.
