<p>From 10% to 12%. I assume the Penn paper would know facts before posting, so… that’s weird. Penn seems to have increased by 4%… I wonder why?</p>

<p>It’s because they’re accepting more because they anticipate more people being unable to pay for college.</p>

<p>If I had to guess.</p>

<p>Interesting! I’m wondering where they got those figures from though.
If they’re true, that’s good news! I was definitely expecting a slight drop at Princeton because of the 2% increase in applicants.</p>
