What are your top takeaways learned from the most recent admissions cycle for rising seniors about to apply?

I was thinking same. Don’t overlook Canadian schools.

Really consider your major. For engineering as long as the program is ABET accredited going to a top school isn’t necessary. Similar for Accounting, Nursing or Teaching. No pay premium for going to more expensive schools.

Plus the college experience the past few years and probably the next few years hasn’t been ideal on several fronts. Temper expectations.

Maybe consider moving to less expensive states or states that have a geographical boost. How many Ivy applicants from North Dakota vs New York.
