AI and College Admissions: What Is Actually True

Host: Natalia | UChicago Former Admissions Officer | Director of AI & Technology, InGenius Prep What You’ll Learn: Families are being told a great deal about AI and college admissions, and much of it is wrong. We checked thirty-two universities on their own admissions websites: not one bans AI outright, and they contradict each other sharply. Natalia, a University of Chicago Former Admissions Officer who read thousands of applications, separates what is documented from what is simply repeated. The Policy Table: Georgia Tech says brainstorm with AI. WashU says that’s unethical. All thirty-two schools, side by side. Who Reads the File: Which schools have confirmed on the record that AI helps read applications, and which have confirmed it does not. Detection Software: Why detectors flagged 61% of human-written TOEFL essays, and what that means for multilingual applicants. What Still Separates Applicants: What to build in grades 9 through 12 now that polished prose is available to everyone. https://tothetopeducation.com/
