Changing the UC number because first-year numbers are most relevant here. Also added Yale's slight decline. Yale Daily News - Bucking trend, Yale's applications dip |

For all of you who think because of application growth, they have no chance at a decent college here is an interesting article from the Washington Post that should reassure you: The Answer Sheet - 'Chasing' college acceptance Quote: |
The average applicant as well as the lower-achieving student have about the same chance of getting into a competitive college as a decade ago. High-achieving students have a slightly easier time today getting into the nation’s most selective schools than they did in 1992, and the same as a decade ago.
| Quote: |
The increase in the number of applications does not necessarily mean there are fewer spots for qualified students. Some researchers note that the number of open slots at colleges has increased at nearly the same rate as the increase in the number of high school graduates. Moreover, many applicants send applications to schools for which they are not qualified.

According to this article in today's Washington Post, applications are up 6% at Washington and Lee University, (not 3%) and UVA has received the largest number of applicants in it's history, 22,396.
It also looks like UMBC has a 5% increase, but UMD College Park may have a decrease (numbers not given)

Per Washington Post January 24th:
But applications to Johns Hopkins University are up 13 percent over last year, with a projected pool of 18,150 students competing for 1,235 seats in the freshman class. The University of Richmond received 8,500 applications for 805 slots, a 9 percent increase. Applications are up 6 percent at Washington and Lee University in Lexington, Va., and 3 percent at George Washington University in the District. The University of Virginia fielded 22,396 applications, an all-time high. The College of William and Mary, too, expects a record number of applicants. washingtonpost.com | |
