<p>“Anyway, in general, what do you think the future of Ivy League admissions will be like?” Like it is today.</p>
<p>“Do you think in the future admissions will be based more off of merit (Standardized Testing, Grades, etc) than now?” You mean less holistically? What would indicate to you that they are screwing things up? If anything, their stars have risen precisely because they aren’t solely stats driven. </p>
<p>“will they be less inclined to give financial aid if you are not as qualified as others?” Amongst the Eight Ivies are some of the most generous schools extant. All have practiced need blind admissions for domestic students for ages. Some even do this (miraculously) for internationals. Even despite the downturn in 2008 where billions evaporated. If that didn’t shake them, what will?</p>
<p>“how many people will be let in (more than now? Less?)” It depends on how many beds are available. The admit no. is fairly constant. H and Y have some plans to expand. That will get more admitted. But you seem to be mistaking admit number for admit rate, perhaps. The admit no. will be static while admit rate for most Ivies will continue to shrink.</p>
