 Even though economic instability continues to affect families from all socio-economic levels, Americans, recognizing the need to stand up in the face of adversity, are searching for ways to reestablish themselves.  Consequently, there are some noteworthy trends growing in the world of higher education.

 In the past few years, the number of applications sent to American colleges and universities has skyrocketed, and it has become more obvious that receiving a higher education leads to stronger financial security and independence. 

 This has resulted in an increased level of competition in college admissions.  As the number of applications received rises, the percentage of applicants awarded admission falls.

 Therefore, high-school juniors and seniors all over America need to remember two major things about the journey that is college preparedness: start early and stand out.  Though the increase in competition may seem daunting, it helps to keep in mind that with higher levels of competition come greater opportunities to go above and beyond fellow applicants.

 Our experts at All-in-One Applications know these trends better than anyone and know how to get inside the heads of the admissions staff members reviewing your application.  With the help of our team of highly dedicated tutors and college admissions counselors, you have the best shot at showing the men and women in charge of admissions that you have the qualifications they look for in potential students.

 Make your mark, and stand out in the sea of applications that wash over the admissions desks of the best college institutions.  Starting early, planning well, scoring high, and knowing how to market your strengths are all factors that will help show colleges and universities that you are the candidate they are looking for. 

 At All-in-One Applications, we can help you polish up your applications and shine in the face of competition.  We know that despite an increase in quantity, it is quality that truly makes a difference.
