How the Pandemic Changed College Admissions

Have you been wondering how college admissions has changed because of the pandemic? 

This interview with Lisa Przekop, director of admissions at the University of California, Santa Barbara, will give you an idea. As she says, “Things are much more nuanced now.”

Without SAT/ACT test scores and uninterrupted GPAs to look at, admissions officers are looking at essays and other parts of the application with much more detail now. The admissions process is taking more time than usual, and some colleges are experiencing an increase in the number of applications.
