[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You all are delusional. Fee waivers have existed for years.[/quote] Fee waivers based on income have existed for years, but not for everyone. We paid $0 for my child's applications last year and we're not low income.[/quote] That proves my point. Last year was the biggest applicant pool, and even then, lots of fee waivers. It has zero to do with ease of admission, it just increases the number of applicant which in turn makes a college look more selective when they reject most of them.[/quote] This. Colleges are streamlining or dropping logistics hurdles, so it’s easier to *apply* to schools. That mostly serves to increase the number of applications and decrease the number of admits. It benefits the school and it’s appearance of selectivity, but doesn’t benefit most applicants. [/quote]
