A great article on college admissions

The article below, from The Star-Telegram, accurately describes the increasing demands placed on students, and parents, as they conduct their college search. It portrays a process that can easily result in information overload.

Here's an excerpt from the article:

"A story in The New York Times in early April gave some statistics to back up what many seniors and their parents had already heard --"the number of high school graduates in the nation has grown each year over the last decade and a half" and is expected to peak either this year or next, making this the most competitive year in our lifetimes for college admissions.
Add to that other new factors in the admissions race, such as "the ease of online applications, expanded financial aid packages, aggressive recruiting of a broad range of young people, and ambitious students applying to ever more colleges," and you've got a blueprint for a superhighway of national Admissions Angst."
