[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]this SSN thing is a myth according to Yale FA department. they say it's used if two kids have same or easily mixed up names, which happens more than you'd think. and only in double checking stage. [/quote] Def not. Ask around after this last cycle. If you fill in the number, it shows up in Slate As Xxx-Xx-Xxxx If you don’t fill it in, it shows up in slate as blank/N/A Even if the rest of your application clearly shows you are full pay (wealth indicators), it can look like you are hunting for merit or not a great yield target? Esp places like WashU/Emory/Wake with those scholarships. I don’t know if you actually need to fill in the SSN to apply for those scholarships? But I would recommend not even applying for the scholarships if you are full pay. [/quote] Interesting. Do OOS publics care if someone chasing for merit? Pitt, UMass, Purdue, etc.? [/quote]
