Could people at least try to spot the trolls? How can someone have gotten into both these schools at this point in the admissions cycle? Just use your brain and then ignore


Take it easy. The question was what if.


Technically the question was "what do". I'm guessing Mom didn't go to Yale.

There’s no harm in asking if there is a need that is not being met. A long time ago, I was accepted ED to Penn. My parents struggled to afford it and, every year, asked Penn if they could increase my aid to help close the gap. And for my first three years, Penn increased its grants by a few thousand dollars. (They did not do so my senior year.) It wasn’t much more aid, but it definitely helped. My parents’ negotiations, however, were based on their need (which Penn probably thought they were meeting with their original aid package).

No because Ivies do not offer merit aid and you do not qualify for financial...

Mom went to Yale yet needs and qualifies for aid? Grim.

If you think an Ivy degree is just for the $$, that's "grim" indeed.

I went to HYP, and I barely make enough to live on. Grim? I'm in a very low-paid profession. I don't care about making money, and I never have. I didn't choose a college based on how much money I would make after going there.

Your post is just sad.

We already established it is a troll whose mom went to Yale and currently works in a low paid profession.
