Prestigious schools are seeing record numbers of applications, and record low in acceptance rates. If there is a hit in college attendance, its not happening at the top of the food chain.
- causalmodels 5y agoTrue, but prestigious schools are playing games. For example, my alma mater is currently waiving the application fee for students they know will not get in simply so they can reject them. It is incredibly fucked up.
- elefanten 5y agoWhy? To juice application numbers? Couldnt it just be wanting to waive fees for those it would help? How are they supposed to only waive fees for those who have a shot at getting in?
- causalmodels 5y agoYes to juice application numbers. Acceptance rate is something heavily considered by the AP in college rankings.
