[quote=Anonymous]I think its aspirational- they are in a sense need blind, they don't start out with a goal of not admitting kids from lower SES (keep in mind they used to do that, i.e. "not our kind") but as a practical matter they can only afford aid some portion of each class, at most of the T20 it is right around 50%. The AO's know this and they know which schools/zip codes contain which SES's. It is also part of what they do in the enrollment management phase when they are predicting which students will accept if admitted vs which are less likely to. Some of them have spoken publicly about having to make changes right up to the last minute. [/quote]
