Recently, the Common Application (hereinafter referred to as CA), the online application system for U.S. universities, released the latest application data for the 2023-2024 application season as of November 1. As of November 1, the number of applications submitted for the fall 2024 admission to U.S. universities has increased by 41% compared to the pre-pandemic period (2019-2020).
First, regarding the number of registrations. This year, the number of people who registered for a CA account reached 1,862,719, an increase of 36% compared to the 2019-2020 application season before the pandemic, and an increase of 11% compared to the previous application season. Although there are some duplicate registrations, the number of registrations this year has visibly increased compared to previous years.
Secondly, the actual number of new students submitting early applications to U.S. universities reached 836,679, with the total number of applications to U.S. universities exceeding 3.35 million, representing increases of 41% and 65% compared to the pre-pandemic application season, respectively.
Additionally, among the students who submitted early applications in the 2022-2023 application season, both domestic and international students showed an upward trend! The number of domestic students submitting applications reached 759,640, an increase of 38% compared to the 2019-2020 quarter; the number of international students submitting applications reached 77,039, an increase of 87% compared to the 2019-2020 quarter. Although the number of applicants from China in the international applicant pool has declined, it remains a significant force, with 12,124 applicants this year.
Furthermore, during this early application phase, public universities received a total of 1,918,615 applications, an increase of 82% compared to the 2019-2020 quarter; private universities received a total of 1,426,856 applications, an increase of 47% compared to the 2019-2020 quarter. In fact, since the 2019-2020 quarter, the number of early applications to public universities in the U.S. has consistently exceeded that of private universities. It is evident that public universities, which offer relatively lower tuition but top-notch education quality, are increasingly attracting applicants' attention and favor.
The CA online application system has also compiled early application data for schools with different admission rates. The competition among top institutions has become more intense, making it increasingly difficult for both domestic and international students to gain admission to schools ranked from Top 30 to Top 70.
According to the data, Yale University received over 7,800 early applications this year, ranking second in the school's history. The University of Georgia received 26,830 early action applications this application season, an increase of 3% from last year. The University of Virginia received a total of 42,093 applications for early action and early decision, an increase of 3.4% from last year. As for the admission rates, I believe everyone has a good idea.
It is clear that the competition for undergraduate applications remains fierce, and it is essential to plan and prepare early to increase the chances of success! For families considering studying abroad and those intending to send their children to receive education in the U.S., in this highly competitive environment, in addition to enhancing their own capabilities, it is also necessary to plan for their children's immigration status in advance.
Currently, the EB-5 investment immigration program is an effective way to quickly obtain a U.S. green card. The application requirements are lenient, with no restrictions on age, education, language, business, or work experience. One application allows the entire family to immigrate to the U.S., where they can live and work anywhere in the country, and children can enjoy free public education (K-12). Spouses and unmarried children under 21 can also immigrate together.
Immigration has two key elements—timing and choice! For investors with a strong need to immigrate to the U.S., rural projects in the EB-5 reserved visa channel are currently the preferred way to quickly obtain a U.S. green card. Now is the time to seize the opportunity to obtain a U.S. green card without waiting in line.
The "University Town Hilton Hotel" EB-5 rural project, exclusively represented by the WorldWay Group in the Greater China region, offers multiple advantages including priority approval, no waiting period, a 50% real estate mortgage guarantee valued at 2.9 times, a 50% personal asset guarantee from the developer, EB-5 funds moving in and out simultaneously with the Peach Tree Group, perpetual first-priority mortgage guarantee, a unique and scarce location in University Town, a minimum investment period of only 3 years, and eligibility for both "rural TEA" and "urban high unemployment TEA". The project is limited to only 25 seats globally, and there are few spots available, so interested parties should act quickly!
Additionally, the "Florida Lakeside Jewish Community" EB-5 rural project, which has received I-956F approval and is exclusively represented by the WorldWay Group in the Greater China region, is also a wise choice for investors seeking to immigrate to the U.S. quickly. This project combines multiple advantages such as no waiting period, priority processing, a job multiplier of up to 5.75, first-priority mortgage guarantee for EB-5 funds, and a minimum investment period of only 3 years, providing investors with an excellent opportunity to quickly obtain a U.S. green card! This high-quality rural EB-5 project is rare and, after rounds of purchasing, only a few spots remain. Good projects do not wait for anyone, so interested parties should act quickly!
