NACAC list of colleges still taking applications?

The new “added” list features some more terrific LACs: Beloit, Juniata, and Hendirx are all fine schools (and all CTCL schools). Lycoming is a sleeper, an LAC in PA that is really overlooked. St. Mary’s of MD is an interesting place, a school that sounds like a private institution but is in fact MD’s public liberal arts college.

@allyphoe Thank you for keeping this going. You are a rock star.

Some schools have come off the list but don’t do so with any “Deleted” fanfare.

What schools have been deleted that I’ve missed? My Excel formula compares each day to the prior and then the subsequent day, so I should be catching them all. If not, I should fix that! :slight_smile: I don’t compare to see if there are any schools changing the detail from yes to no, which I could do with some trivial deletions, if that would be helpful.

There’s no cumulative list for each day, because it would spread across multiple posts.

Simmons. St Marys in MD. Roger Williams. Mas Collece of Art and Design. Not comprehensive, just a few of the names I noticed. Or is it that you are just adding as more come in but not creating a comprehensive list?

St Mary’s was added Monday, and it’s still on the website, so shouldn’t be either an add or a delete for Tuesday.

There’s no cumulative list for each day, because it would spread across multiple posts. Adds and deletes are just adds and deletes.

Gotcha.

Sorry about the misspells above-just noticed them.

I’m curious. How does the average student/family find out about these openings? Sure, here on CC we are accustomed to this list appearing each year, but only a tiny sliver of the overall applicant pool visits, or even knows about, CC.

I ask because I decided to visit a few of these schools’ websites. I was curious to see if the websites in any way indicated, “We still have seats for the freshman class, plus financial aid!” I visited a handful of websites, including that of my alma mater, Knox College. I scanned the hone page and the admissions section. Nada.

So how do students/families know? Do guidance counselors regularly check this list and make suggestions, particularly for students who aimed too high or could not afford the schools they were admitted to? I would assume so, since aren’t guidance counselors typically members of NACAC?

There’s a Forbes article most years, as well as some coverage by other college search sites.

In a perfect world, families who are still looking would contact their guidance counselors who would lead them to this list. I know for a fact that doesn’t always happen.

Wednesday’s changes:

Deletes: None

Adds:
Ball State University IN
Berry College GA
Bloomsburg University PA
Carroll College MT
Colorado Mesa University CO
Delaware Valley University PA
Edgewood College WI
Framingham State University MA
Harrisburg University of Science & Technology PA
Marymount California University CA
Minneapolis College of Art and Design MN
Texas Lutheran University TX
The University of Memphis TN
University of Missouri - Kansas City MO
Westfield State University MA
Westminster College UT (back again!)

There are 519 schools on the list today after omitting 8 duplicate entries, including 42 outside the US, which have been excluded from the daily updates, and 11 (one international) which remain on the list but currently have no freshman openings.

These are the 10 US schools that still appear on the NACAC list, and had freshman openings on a previous day, but currently have a “No” or blank in that column:
Texas Christian University
Rollins College
Rutgers University - New Brunswick
Sacred Heart University
University of Florida
University of Maryland
Western Connecticut State University
University of Denver
Worcester State University
North Carolina A&T State University

Once the adds / deletes seem to have mostly stopped, I’ll try to remember to post a list showing day-by-day movement by school.

Thursday’s changes:

Deletes:
Westminster College UT (surprise!)

Adds:
Elizabethtown College PA
Illinois Wesleyan University IL
Mount Saint Mary College NY
Pacific University OR
Roberts Wesleyan College NY
University of Hartford CT

Doesn’t NACAC know that even if they think it’s fun to have Westminster College do it, the HTML tag was never actually part of the standard and so has been deprecated for years—decades, even.

Friday’s (4/11/18) changes:

Deletes: None

Adds:
Augustana University SD
Edinboro University PA
Lindenwood University MO
Morningside College IA
Newberry College SC
Paul Smith’s College NY
Rosemont College PA
Southwest Minnesota State University MN
Stevenson University MD
Univeristy of Iowa IA
Wesleyan College GA
Westminster College UT

No movement from Friday through today, although I will say that I downloaded late in the day Friday and it’s still early today, so who knows what the coming day will bring! Since there’s no update, here’s the current list of US schools with freshman openings and both financial aid and housing still available:

From 5/3 to 5/14, if I limit the list to US schools accepting freshmen, which have both financial aid and housing available, and ignore the blinking Westminster, there have been only adds, no deletes. That means that previous deletes were schools that were lacking either financial aid, housing, or both.

The moral I take from this is that there’s no enormous hurry to get an application in the moment a school appears, because schools that are underenrolled tend to stay that way for a reasonable length of time. Alternatively, administrators have better things to do than to fiddle with this list.

Would there be an interest in having the list broken down by additional detail, like Forbes financial stability rating, COA, CTCL status, etc?

Same thing, but for religiously-affiliated schools. Note that “religiously affiliated” can mean anything from “you might hear a prayer at graduation” to “people of other faiths or no faith may not be comfortable here.”
