Today’s competition for slots in all levels of high education has gotten tougher.  With the use of the universal application and the addition of workers who are either laid off or looking to update their skills, competition for higher education slots has migrated to all levels of education.  Schools that once had open enrollments are now capping their number of incoming freshmen and some schools are even cutting the number of students on campus.  Even community colleges in some areas are looking to cap their numbers.  This makes it
imperative that students take advantage of every tool to make themselves
attractive to colleges.
