There are thousands of colleges and universities in the U.S. and trying to find the right school can be overwhelming. With so many options available, it's important for students to organize their priorities and create a list of needs and wants.
Campus closures at colleges and universities across the country are spreading as fast as the novel coronavirus itself. While higher education has previously endured national emergencies (think 9/11/01) and weathered various crises (fires, floods, and flu), the timing and scope of COVID-19 are unprecedented. College admission is certainly not immune to the impact of this disease and it is having very real consequences for enrollment managers and the students whom they hope to attract.
