Anecdotally I think last year was maybe a little harder overall. Seems like some schools this year were harder than is typical - St. John’s fr what I’ve heard. But I think the COVID book is probably over now and next year admissions should be slightly easier than this year. But knows for sure?

Didn’t know there is such a rule and we actually live in DC.
Why don’t you answer the question and ignore mine.
I have to agree. My DC got into Strayer last year and was the 43rd best numismatist in the greater Seattle region. Surely that must mean something, unless it doesn’t mean anything….
Strayer is a defunct for profit college. Really, answer the Op. he’s just asking for opinions… Your hostility is odd.
And yet so much odder to brag about your kid’s SSAT scores and nationally-ranked hobby in coming to a conclusion about application and acceptance rates for schools your kid didn’t apply to based on a sample size of two….
It’s not a double blind official study. It’s an opinion on an anon message board. You don’t get graded except by weirdos whose only function is to comment on others posts on an anon message board
. So what do you think, was it harder or easier this year?

Anecdotal from two different admissions staffs, but FWIW: applications up between 30-40%, attributed in part to fears that Omnicron surge would mean return to remote learning….

Our acceptance letter said the school received a record number of applications. No way to prove it, and it’s not anything I care about, but they don’t really need to lie either.

I know it’s speculation but curious as to what you think?
