[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I teach at a not very selective private college and applications are down by a staggering number. It is alarming. I hope that we see more students when they aren't admitted where they thought they would be, but not counting on it.[/quote] But it was academics at schools like yours that were begging for the spread of test optional and blind policies. You got what you wish for. Students didn't [i]WANT[/i] to go to your school, they had to. [/quote] What a weird comment, apropos of nothing. DP[/quote] Other PP. I think the comment should not have been directed at the PP, but it is interesting nonetheless that apps are up so much at more selective schools and yet down at less selective ones. There is no question that app increases at more selective schools are a result of test optional policies. Does it follow that apps are down at less selective schools for related reasons?[/quote]
