[quote=Anonymous]The higher SES kid had to demonstrate more objective potential to get into the same school as the lower SES kid in the first place, though. That’s the point. I wouldn’t argue against the lower SES kid having a lower entry hurdle AND receiving need-based aid if the bar wasn’t intentionally set higher for a higher SES kid to qualify for admissions AND merit-based aid. Also, evening playing fields is tricky business. If we had ways to do so that truly matched actions with intended goals, I’d feel a lot better than the mostly “blind leap of faith” system that drives the college admissions process these days.[/quote]
