[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Nope, low income is the community AOs are currently focused on admitting.[/quote] Not really. That's one piece (maybe a 1/4). Dig deeper. They don't want donut hole or those who can't contribute in some way to the advancement of the university. [/quote] Having a higher percent of low income and first gen admits helps them climb up the USNWR rankings so they care. USNWR will change criteria down the line and they'll admit the new thing that is being measured. That's how college admissions works. It's not a meritocracy.[/quote] I don't disagree. But they also need MORE full pay with attendant funding cuts. And they'd prefer full pay with a likely/propensity to donate. Seeing some test-optional, very $$$$ private school kids get into Northwestern, Vanderbilt, WashU early this year (not DMV). Schools are increasingly more and more BARBELLish.[/quote]
