Full scholarship for a 1500 SAT? Doubtful unless we're talking about an athlete.

Outright rejected. 1570 SAT, 3.97UW/4.83W at magnet. Nat'l & state awards, Capt of sports team, unique/complimentary ECs w/ regional/state recognition, various service, Nat'l Merit, AP scholar/distinction, club pres.

Such a bummer. Wondering were there that many applying from this area? Or, should we worry about a rec?

Seems they cut over 50% this year, took fewer and deferred much fewer. Knocked the wind out of kid's sails a bit. Did not expect an admit, but thought they'd at least get deferred.

Could be low income and/or first gen college.

All FA is need based, so stats wouldn't figure into it.

Yeah. Not legacy either. We're just boring middle class.

Congrats - did you get aid info immediately? I thought that came separately.

It's financial aid. Yale does not give merit aid so SAT score does not play any part in financial help

Sounds like a great kid. They will get in somewhere that will be great.
