[quote=Anonymous]Honestly, the LACs that are doing either "free applications" or "no supplements" end up being a win/win for both them and some students. The colleges get more apps, so their overall acceptance rate is lower — and they can find some great students who otherwise might not have had that college as a top choice. Once you get past Amherst & Williams, many LACs are under the radar — despite being excellent undergrad schools. Some of those kids might look more closely at places like Colby after getting accepted and realize it's a good match. I don't look down at any school that adopts this as an admissions strategy.[/quote]
