Published:
Kaplan (kaptest.com/blog) Press Release, 13 January 2020
From the Press Release:
"Results from Kaplan Test Prep’s 2019 college admissions officers find that 36 percent of the nearly 300 admissions officers polled visit applicants’ social media profiles like Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, and YouTube to learn more about them—up from 25 percent last year and following a three year decline in the practice since the high mark of 40 percent in Kaplan’s 2015 survey*. This comes as teens are increasingly using newer social platforms such as TikTok and Twitch."
