[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's easier to be an exceptional student with exceptional accomplishments and test scores when you are high SES. Academic performance is strongly correlated to SES, so if they are selecting only for the top applicants, it makes sense that many fewer would come from poor or truly middle class backgrounds.[/quote] but what they put into practice does not reflect a true need-blind admissions policy. If you have to equally qualified candidates--the kid from the wealthy zip code will gain admissions over the kids from the "projects"....it just is what it is and if you want to keep applying political correctness to a business, you won't understand the difference--between "impeding" and actually considering.....much in the same way that checking the URM box will help your admissions. Then they require you to fill out the CSS and one of the questions is "how much can you afford to pay each year"....before admissions decisions.... [/quote]
