[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you are full pay, it is much easier to get in to many schools.

So when you hear people saying things like "My nephew had mediocre grades and low test scores but write this really funny essay and got in to all his schools" I have to ask -- was he full pay?

SO how do they know you are full pay at the time of the application?  [/quote]

THEY DON’T: people just like to claim this to make themselves feel like their kid would definitely have gotten in if, if, if...

Admissions committees have no idea how you plan to pay . [/quote]

This is not true. All schools have deadlines to submit a FAFSA and CSS, if applicable. Many great schools are need aware, not need blind.  Many schools don’t meet all demonstrated need. And you can’t ED unless you can make the number of the NPC work. Many people can’t. ED has a higher acceptance rate. [/quote]
