[quote=Anonymous]I'm not necessarily jealous of the school, but the family support that helped most get into a top college. I managed to get into a T20 all on my own only to have my father tell me that he didn't support women attending college. He considered it a waste of money because "you're just going to end up a SAHM and I need to save my money for your brother." I got zero aid because we were upper middle class and my merit scholarship wasn't enough at the T20. I ended up at a forth tier school on a full ride, working three jobs for incidentals loke car insurance, groceries and books, because my father cut me off. I couldn't even afford the state school. I made up for my humble undergrad with much more prestigious grad schools, but the whole thing still stings. [/quote]
