Most Applied to College?

Hey all! I'm a little stressed about applications and wondering about the competition out there. So, here goes - what college is most applied to?

a year ago

The University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) generally receives the highest number of applications every year. The total number can vary slightly from year to year, but typically the school receives over 100,000 undergraduate applications annually, making it one of the most sought-after universities in the United States. It's not surprising that admissions at UCLA are highly competitive due to the large applicant pool.

However, it's worth noting that a school's popularity doesn't necessarily indicate the quality of its programs. Every institution has its own strengths, and applicants should consider a school based on their individual needs and goals. A school's academic programs, campus culture, location, and available resources should all be a part of your decision-making process, rather than just its reputation.
