Yeah everybody trots out that one old article from Bev "I charge rich Chinese $1M to help them with their apps!" Taylor.

All she presents is speculation.  Not one shred of evidence.  Not one of the thousands of former admissions professionals at T20 schools has ever come forth to dispel the lie.  It's the greatest secret conspiracy since the moon landing.  She even contradicts herself and [b]admits they make the decisions need blind in this very article[/b]: "Most knew well and good that their school wasn’t actually need blind — but they said an applicant’s ability to pay didn’t factor into the admissions equation anyway. After all, doing so was their job." Need blind!  In this very article!

So, you linked to an article where the headline supported your incorrect belief, but the body of it supports the opposite.  Fail!

Bev knows that the financial aid question on the common app is blacked out for admissions people and that it is a setting in the college's admin portal.  But she lies.  Why?  It's right there a few PP later: "“If you can afford our services, you can afford the full cost of tuition. Don’t apply for aid."

Ivy Coach is the one who is not need blind.

Colleges that say they are need blind in admissions are so.  Believe otherwise at your own peril.[/quote]
