[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Parent employment helps determine low income for financial aid status, on the one end, full pay on the high end, and possible donors for the advancement office on the very high end. What I don't understand is why some podcast would advocate not including parent employment for the same student who isn't including SSN in order to signal full pay. Parent employment can signal full pay; why leave it out if the parent's employment is obviously full pay?[/quote] The host was theorizing that it could be a bad look if an applicant who wanted to major in CS had a parent who was a tech executive or if a student who wanted to do a pre-med path had a parent who was a doctor. In a very whiny poorly flushed out argument, he felt AO’s could possibly look down upon those applicants for perceived nepotism. [/quote]
