COVID-19 — College Admissions Effects
Excerpt from Jumpstart Meeting #18 c/o 2020
AN OVERVIEW AND WHAT’S NEW AT EEP:
Colleges SUDDENLY are plunged into uncertainty by the Local, State and Federal response to the Corona Virus Outbreak – Only quick and drastic lessening of public fear and/or very different GOVT response will return things even near “normal”.
There has been a 60% economic shutdown for an undetermined time.
Effect on EEP and how we’re moving forward:
ONLINE Homework Club
ONLINE SAT Prep
ONLINE targeted information session for Class of 2020 and 2021
ONLINE Family College Conferencing

We are still planning LATTC Classes and the Summer Bridge Program either distance Learning or classroom or (most likely some of both).
WHAT COLLEGES ARE DOING:
Most College Sent Home their students at a cost of MILLIONS of $$ per college; Lost Rent and Tuition (in some cases); students filing claims for tuition due to online vs in-person classes
Some Colleges sheltered in place since their Governors were concerned about sending youth home to grandparents and on planes
Colleges are bracing for reduced enrollment (and $$) due to fears about traveling and living in another city will persist through Fall 2020; Also bracing for more “Special Circumstance FA Awards” given the economic situation (See next slide)
Private Schools are suffering and will suffer the most
Our take… There will be an adverse effect on FA Awards
