[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]NP. Genuinely confused why UChicago is the subject of so much controversy on DCUM. DC didn’t apply for college, but attended one of UChicago’s fully funded (not pay-to-play) high school enrichment programs which had an 11% acceptance rate. Multiple ED0 applicants (and admits) from DC’s cohort because UChicago truly was their first choice college. At least one dorm mate received a full ride to boot.[/quote]

Can you tell us about these summer programs and ED0 plans? My dc is extremely interested in this. [/quote]

Unfortunately, it seems last summer was the last in which UChicago offered several fully funded enrichment programs to all admits regardless of need. The one DC attended now costs $2,500 plus airfare: https://summer.uchicago.edu/courses/neubauer-phoenix-stem-scholars/

I’m guessing UChicago wanted to tighten its belt given recent budget issues, and/or saw an opportunity to monetize the allure of ED0 which only applies to summer program participants. That said, need-based financial aid is still available.[/quote]
