[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Increases at highly-selective schools are due to some combination of test-optional and increased uncertainty in general.

Across the board, Common App applications are down 8%.  https://www.insidehighered.com/admissions/article/2020/11/16/college-applications-are-decreasing[/quote]

From the article you posted - applications down significantly:

Colleges and universities in the Northeast and Midwest regions experienced the largest declines in application volume, each down 14 percent.
Colleges in the West saw a 10 percent increase in applications relative to 2019.
First-year application declines were mostly consistent among members across enrollment size, with the exception of those with the smallest enrollments (fewer than 1,000), which were down substantially more, at a loss of 14 percent.
Public four-year institutions saw an 11 percent drop relative to 2019, while private four-year institutions saw a smaller (5 percent) fall in volume over the same period.[/quote]
