[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Unfortunately, independent schools in this area are not truly "need blind" in the way that the best endowed colleges and universities are. From what I understand, the first round of admissions is made based upon application alone. But, after that considerations are made to accept or deny applicants based upon their ability to pay and the school's ability to meet demonstrated financial need. If the school cannot afford to meet an applicant's financial need, the school may decide to deny admission. [/quote] This is what I was wondering about. I realize that you apply for both at the same time. I just did that. I wanted to know how the decisions are made. Why then do some schools admit a student who clearly needs a lot of aid? Do they think it will just magically appear and then they can afford tuition?[/quote]
