[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]clearly the demand for top 50 colleges is there. why not admit more in fields like STEM? colleges would get oos tuition $$ and kids an opportunity that they might have just missed? [/quote] Because we are not China.[/quote] Why not? [/quote] The problem is that, a lot of the time, non-U.S. universities hold tuition by spending a lot on government subsidies; offering a rigid or low-quality curriculum; or skimping on what we think of as basic student services, like dorms. So, for undergrads, even a lot of famous non-U.S. universities are a lot more like UDC would be if it had a lot of high-stats freshmen than they are like Johns Hopkins. For some students, a more sophisticated version of UDC might be perfect, but that’s not even the same experience students get from UMBC or George Mason. You really have to think hard about the tradeoffs. [/quote]
