[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Any guesses on how this trend may impact class of 2022?[/quote] No one knows, but it's probably not good. If they allow unlimited deferrals and screw the class of 2021, then that will take years to shake out. If the international students come back en masse for 2022, then it will be even worse. If the colleges are allowing unlimited deferrals, then I guess they've just made a cynical calculation that they will do what is popular now and screw the next round (or two or three) of kids. From their perspective, if students defer, they can let in more full-pay kids off the wait list this year, even if it means they can accept very few kids in 2021 (and onward). Having more applications than they can admit in 2021 only makes them look more selective and is a good thing from a college rankings standpoint. They don't care about the impact on the students.
