[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think the admissions landscape will be very different for most of these SLACs next fall. The number of foreign student applications will drop precipitously, although this may not affect your US student’s chances too much because relatively few of these foreign applications were accepted in recent years. These foreign applications (35-40% of the total) have made the top SLACs look more selective than they really are. More importantly, the economic chaos is putting a lot of pressure on endowments, and may make need blind admissions and meets full need aid policies impracticable. Look for the schools that have overweighted gold and oil & gas in their portfolios, I guess.[/quote] Top SLACS are in better financial shape than most top schools. Only HYPSM have higher endowment per student than WASP.[/quote]
