Wall Street Journalさんのインスタグラム写真 - (Wall Street JournalInstagram)「This college admissions season is shaping up to be the most uncertain in recent memory for high-school seniors, as well as the universities looking to enroll them.⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ With early-admission deadlines this month, fewer students have applied to colleges or filled out federal financial-aid forms compared with a year ago, and universities say they are struggling to predict who might eventually enroll.⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ The pandemic has eliminated many mainstays of the admissions process, like campus visits and sitting for the SAT or ACT. It has also created a financial crisis that wiped out savings for many families and colleges. College counseling sessions went online or disappeared entirely right as students needed help.⁠⠀ ⠀ The Common Application, which is used by more than 900 colleges and universities, saw nearly 8% fewer first-year applications and 10% fewer applicants as of Nov. 2, compared to the same period last year.⠀ ⠀ Early data show that the number of high-school seniors who have filled out the Free Application for Federal Student Aid for next school year is down 16% from this time last year. The numbers are even lower among students of color and those in high-poverty high schools and rural areas, according to a National College Attainment Network analysis of Education Department data.⠀ ⁠⠀ Read more at the link in our bio.⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ Photo: Diane Campbell」11月14日 0時18分
