[quote=Anonymous]You are seeing it wrong. Merit is not meant to reward a student for their hard work. Merit is used by schools as a strategy to increase yield of students they want at their school. Who these students are is determined by each school. Most typically it is students who are at the top of their applicant pool who would likely get into more prestigious schools. So yes, your daughter might get into Wellesley but they don’t need her to increase yield. Set your budget and plan accordingly. Do your research. That you are just realizing this shows you have not done the work as a parent with a budget to set realistic expectations for your child.[/quote]
