[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My son at a SN school got fee waivers at 3/5 schools he applied to. I think they give them to many who might be disadvantaged.[/quote] He is probably being targeted for communications due to his SAT and Hispanic recognition award. They want to increase diversity, but can't ask race, so getting this info form the college board is an easy way to increase diversity while focusing on the high stats students. no harm in applying if the supplements are not overwhelming. If he gets in and wants to go and does not get good merit can use the merit from the other schools in "negotiations" - depends how badly they want a Hispanic student - if he was a white male there would be little wiggle room to negotiate at schools like Northwestern.[/quote]
