[quote=Anonymous]Not sure if it's true, but what I keep hearing is that really exceptional students are for the first time being rejected from many state universities due to protecting yield. The colleges make the assumption the kid won't accept the offer due to being high stats. If it's true, it's just wrong. Many kids can only afford state tuition, but apply to privates with hope of getting aid to make it possible--and/or are just truly undecided when they apply to several universities. I hear about students rejected from UVA, W&M, Tech, etc., that are above and far beyond admission profiles. Again, I don't have a kid applying this year. My oldest is a Junior, but that is what neighbors and classmates with older siblings have been telling us.[/quote]
