[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would like to remind those complaining about FA on this board that if we are talking about middle or high school, aid is only offered if the school really wants your child. And why would they want a FA child. its not just for diversity it is so the school can keep up with the competition to send kids to top twenty colleges and universities. Brains and leadership in kids do not neatly correlate with high HHI parents.[/quote] Aid is only offered if the school wants your child no matter what grade level. I know of two families admitted to the same LS with almost identical HHIs. Both applied for FA. One was given a 60% award package and the other was told they could not offer them any FA and would place them in a FA wait pool. We can only surmise they really wanted the child they awarded the FA to. [/quote] What factor do you think made them want one child over the other? Academics, diversity?[/quote]
