[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]QB students are a fraction of recruited athlete admits.[/quote] QB, QB type programs, first gen, and Pell are over 1/3 of Swarthmore admits. So about equal. Non-SLACs have a lower proportion of athletes, so this category far exceeds the athlete proportion. I think the complaint is about applicants hiding finances or falsely claiming first-gen (not necessarily through Questbridge, but in their applications generally). This is easier to do for immigrant families, though it is a problem generally. Are 10% of students getting into very selective schools as a result of first gen lying? Probably. That’s a huge problem…[/quote]
