    Moving the Goalposts

    It's never really fair, but that's that test-optional policies have effectively done with inflated SAT/ACT score ranges. What's a student to do? Check out the ranges from 2019 and then decide if your score is worth submitting. It's a judgement call, but context should matter.

    Deep Fakes & Proof of Concept

    Ch-Ch-Changes

    The 2024-2025 FAFSA will be a leaner, more user-friendly form.
