[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]They need full pay domestic kids to prop up the budget. Not fooling anyone. If only Lori Loughlin and Mossimo Giannulli's daughter was a c/o 2020 instead of 2018 they wouldn't have had to cheat to get in![/quote]

Well I had a full pay that got pulled off a WL and the school above her.  Her twin, a boy, is on four waitlists also full pay and has heard nothing.  I know usually they don't move till after May 1.  Thoughts? [/quote]

Depends on their intended major and stats, obviously. Is she trying to go into STEM? If so, I could she her getting pulled off the WL before her twin brother with similar stats.

This year will truly be the demarcating line between the "haves" and the "have nots." Lackluster full-pay Haves will never have a better shot of getting into excellent schools. I feel bad for superstar kids from poor backgrounds - the financial aid packages will be inadequate for the next 2-3 years. This will have reverberations for the rest of their lives. [/quote]

No both Poli Sci types.  The one waitlisted at four schools had a much much higher GPA...between an A/A-...got like two Bs in math classes (which he will never use) and all As/A-.  Was clearly higher stat.  Got Merit at GW, Tulane, and a top 15 SLAC (where he is going).  Guess we wait till March 1.  Sent SLAC deposit yesterday.  [/quote]
