[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We're an Asian family so don't start about having to compete within your own racial or athletic cohort in order to get uni seat in a statistically diverse specially-curated class. I've literally gotten Columbia MBA program to say I was waitlisted because I was Asian. [/quote] I doubt that.[/quote] I made an appointment, took the subway up during lunch time, asked them what happened, told them I’d prefer to go there than Stern , she giggled around and basically said I was applying versus other Asians and that is a tall order. She immediately shut up after stating that. But that’s the system. It’s even more of a crapshoot now that 10% of colleges have carveouts for “first gen college kids.” Carved out of what? Legacies, AA, int’l, valedictorians from Idaho... but in a way that doesn’t blow the endowment draw or budget. [/quote]
