This is what high school counselors have been saying for years.

No they haven't.

Not shocking VT is ranked higher when they play affirmative action with first gens

What school doesn't? At least they're transparent about it.

Not on the level VA tech does. They want 40% of the student body to be FGLI. Seems middle class gets no financial aid as a result of that. Makes US news happy, not so much the average Virginian who can't afford 40K COA on a 100k income

Again: that is no longer part of the criteria they use for ranking. Move along.

Again: FG/LI and Pell Grant populations have very substantial overlap

Get in while you can!

It's time to rank privates and publics separately.

What if there are errors in the metrics for a particular school? Who would you email to get clarification?
