[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You are lecturing in abstract without knowing the specifics of the family as if college costs were not a known issue in this country. Again, privilege written all over. Would not be surprised if this is a case of pay for SAT prep, pay for essay drafting, pay for college advisors, pay for private school and still pretends this is a fair game. Inequalities start way before you can imagine⦠think immigration status, complex parenting situation⦠[/quote] No one is pretending that college costs are a non-issue. Several PPs have shared the NYT piece that makes clear that an applicant can get out an ED admission if they do not receive financial aid that is needed. The OP described a different situation - a kid who got in ED, intends to go to the ED school, but is keeping the other applications in the mix just for fun. That's a violation of the agreement that the kid's parents and their guidance counselor signed, and it's plainly unethical.[/quote]
