Our main objective was to create less stress for applicants. We constantly consider changes to the admissions process which could improve the experience for applicants, and the reasons for this change became more apparent over the last application cycle. In notifying prospective students of this change, we have sensed their relief in not having to make that difficult decision prior to applying.
