Groundwork2022:

That would force students to think about fit over chasing prestige,

For many students and parents, “fit” is defined mainly by prestige (or what they think prestige is).

SJ2727:

that’s how the UK limits such crazy application numbers/admit rates.

However, the UK has a population about one fifth that of the US, while Oxford and Cambridge bring in two or three times as many new undergraduates as Harvard and Yale.
