Ivy Link’s Founder & CEO, Adam Nguyen, sat down with Pimm Fox on Bloomberg TV’s “Taking Stock” for an interview and discussed Ivy Link’s mission and approach, as well as the challenges in education and the admissions process. To watch the interview, please click here.
Applications for the Fall 2011 freshmen class increased at most selective colleges. Notably, Columbia and Michigan witnessed a jump of 32% and 18%, respectively, from 2010 to 2011 — likely due to the schools’ decision to adopt the Common Application.
We see also double-digit increases at Darmouth (17.9%), Duke (10.4%), Harvard (14.8%), Northwestern (12%), NYU(11%), Tufts (10.8%), UChicago (11.9%), UPenn (17.5%), Vanderbilt (13%), Wash U. (15.5%).
