[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The best schools are need blind. Full pay helps with second tier schools and where you are a marginal admit. Sorry, OP, but you can't buy your way into a top school only by being full pay. Full pay plus donating a building, maybe. Full pay alone? No. College isn't like DC privates schools, where money does all the talking.[/quote] Yes. As in American politics, there is widespread confusion about what “rich” means. Rich means billionaires. People who can buy a building. The 1% — those who have to scrimp and save to afford full pay — get shafted by the truly rich while believing that they’re getting ahead by paying a full ride and voting for lower taxes for themselves. But in reality both are mirages, and the billionaires laugh at them while holding them down.[/quote]
