[quote=Anonymous]What's wrong with kids getting disappointed? If you are clear up front that money will affect the outcome. They apply. Hopefully they study extra hard for the SATs because they need that merit aid. School makes a choice. Parents and child make a choice. Sometimes life is disappointing. If the kid had a reasonable chance of getting in with aid, why was it bad to try? When I applied to grad school, I got into some but not many. The more elite the less likely I was to get in with money. It still made sense to apply for that NSF even if I was a longshot.[/quote]
