[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As someone with a relative in an enrollment management position at a t20 school, I can tell you this year has been the biggest misfire from admissions offices in a long time due to two things: 1)International student issues 2)one of the largest years ever for number of applications.

Yields are down everywhere and 9/10 colleges are digging deep in their waitlists like never before.[/quote]
Been watching this unfold. Brown and Northwestern admitted 100 fewer than the year before. So much uncertainty.

Sigh, this is why schools have huge waitlists. My high stats, full pay kid is still sitting on a few, every day deeper into plans for the school where he will attend - has a dorm assignment, looking at class options, etc. - which makes mentally switching that much more difficult than it was in March or even May.[/quote]

My kid is also hanging out on a waitlist but is getting more excited about their committed school. If a call comes from the waitlist, I’m not sure what the answer will be. The more time that passes, the more likely it will be no thanks. [/quote]
