[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]First generation college student, and[b] pell grant eligible[/b] are both very valuable hooks right now.[/quote] but the college does not know if the student is pell grant eligible until AFTER the acceptance and the FAFSA and other financial aid work is done[/quote] Colleges send financial aid information with acceptances, so they definitely have that information when they are making decisions. There are far more need aware schools that prioritize full pay applicants than there are schools that prioritize pell grant recipients. [/quote] Very few of the more selective schools discussed routinely here are need aware. Pell grant eligibility came to the forefront when us news started including it as a ranking factor. Going forward with the expected ruling against affirmative action, it will become more significant as it is correlates highly with URM status. [/quote]
