Message: [QUOTE="aburks41, post: 4278025, member: 4580"] I graduated from Storrs in 2018, I don't think I would have even got accepted to a branch campus if I tried to apply today after seeing some of these kids' stats. The common app is the worst thing to ever happen for students. Colleges get overwhelmed with applications from kids who have zero intention of ever attending, so it takes away admission spots from kids who actually want to go there. I remember some of the top kids from my high school were applying to middle of the pack BIG 10 schools when they were getting accepted into Ivies or other elite schools...like why? You're not attending Michigan State when you have a full ride offer from Duke already. It's crazy now [/QUOTE]
