@EMCarlosC A3: #COVID19 is going to blow up a lot of the metrics we use. We're all behind, but now is the time to re-visit why we're admitting who we admit, who we engage vs. who we do not--all in all, @HackTheGates. Hoping we can be more more counselors than officers. #EMchat

I see it now, @AcceptGroup and @HackTheGates present Hack the Guide, 99 colleges that didn't change amidst a global pandemic. Find out which schools still require test scores. Learn about the ones who didn't extend their deposit deadline.

Tuning into the #UNC Board of Governors this morning. They're talking COVID19 response and voting on a change to the UNC System minimum admissions requirement.

Federal student loan borrowers, please note tweet 7/10 especially. Many notes from readers over the weekend confused about fact that @myfedloan may not have updated its website/systems yet. Will try to ask servicers directly in coming days.

News: @Cornell's top brass take 6 month pay cuts. Hiring freeze, travel ban also enacted. "No institution, including Cornell, can predict today the impact of this crisis on its future budget." Their endowment is $7B+. Imagine what others will have to do. cornell.edu/coronavirus/st…

UPDATED: Our hub for help, for people who have lost some/all of their income recently. 1) @Navient matched Sallie Mae & offered relief on private student loans. 2) The "Daily Generosity" text from @GivingTuesday (we'll have more in the hub on giving soon). nytimes.com/article/corona…

“Families are already stretched to some degree to send their kids to college, Now they’re weighing whether they might lose jobs, or if they should keep their kids close to home. Holding fast to these deadlines, I think it’s kind of selfish, & not practical for most families.”

As we have been saying all week....it's your move colleges...and to the Big 10 college that suggested "depositing by 4/15"...you are at the least tone deaf...and I am following up with you personally. Grrrrr. #advocateforapplicants

I agree 100% with this message, please pause. These are real students, & families are struggling. The testing inequity your model suggests, money, stress, & time are all factors in this. Be a leader with heart & not one concerned with your bottom line. @AP_Trevor @CollegeBoard
