Early Applications up 11.5 %

<p>As someone mentioned earlier it is easier to apply to more schools using the common application, however, ND & UChicago do not use the common application.</p>

<p>2 kids from my sons high school are now going to UChicago this year. I think they are the first two to go in the last 5-10 years.</p>

<p>BTW, here is a CC discussion of the WSJ article. Not the gross level numbers not just the percentage increases in the article.</p>
