[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]Will American colleges drop the preferential treatment they tend to give US applicants?
Will state schools, especially now that less funding comes from state sources, stop giving preference to in-state applicants?[/b]
There are a lot of distinctions that could be dropped if schools just want the "best" academic profiles. With more international and out-of-state students, it would also increase overall diversity (though probably not particular types of racial diversity).[/quote]

Stupid questions.  These institutions ARE taxpayer funded (in the case of Publics) and heavily taxpayer subsidized (in the case of Privates).  Why the F would you want them to NOT take care of taxpayers first?  At this point, we don't really need foreigners for diversity.  You need a Chinese kid, admit a US born Chinese.  They are lining up, begging you to take their $$.  Not Chinese enough for your taste? Go do a 6-month study abroad in China.  All this BS needs to stop. [/quote]
