[quote=Anonymous]It is all about math. There are 75K high students graduating every year with 1,500+ SAT or 35+ ACT scores. That fills every seat in the top 20+ universities. Except those schools also need athletes, kids in the band, etc., so you can fill maybe the top 30. State schools need out of state kids that they can charge more to cover the bills. Everybody wants more full pay international students. These factors make admissions more random than in the past and force kids to apply to more schools which is easier because of the common app. Viscous cycle that will continue for the foreseeable future. Even though college age population in the US will start to shrink, you will see more applicants from outside the US and a reduction in the number of colleges as those operating on the margins today go under.
