This is going to be common across almost all institutions.
If you have family that are entering college this fall that had hoped to attend a more prestigious college or university or who thought a prestigious college was out of reach and did not apply to one, or perhaps even thought that college in general was out of reach then please take a moment to re-evaluate things.
I strongly recommend that they reach out to the admissions departments on their wish list. With foreign enrollment curtailed and domestic enrollment way down and seeking to deffer, institutions are scrambling for students and this is a once in a century opportunity. Remember that many institutions will be offering online classes and extra safety measures this fall so it might be the case that in-person instruction is very limited.
I am in the business of prepping, coaching and helping to place the children of the affluent into the top 100 colleges and universities. I was talking a few weeks back with a director of admissions for a masters program with incoming enrollment off 50% as a result of a lack of foreign applicants. They told me they would probably "do whatever they needed to do to accept a domestic applicant at this point". I have never seen an opportunity like this before. I only with my own kids were old enough to take advantage of this.
