[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We are full pay anywhere. We found that with our kids' stats, they got merit at schools more in the T80 range and chose to attend those schools over full pay at U Roch, though we would have paid for U Roch if they had wanted to go. Rejected from Villanova a few yrs ago, but with 3.5/1500.

I admit I do not understand why Villanova wouldn't take a 3.9/1480 ED full pay, and that is the frustration of the opaque admissions process, we just don't know the reason. The 3.9 should have been enough. BC and Villanova are looking for top grades moreso than scores, close to 4.0 unweighted. Large chunk admitted without scores at BC, not sure about Villanova.[/quote]

Kid is at Rochester full pay (great school, very happy with choice).  Turned down 2nd choice with $42K/year of merit (CWRU).  Kid knows 95% of other students would have been told to pick CWRU and save the money.  But we can easily pay so we let them choose the best fit for themselves and are happy with choice[/quote]
