[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Another Emory wave, their yield seems off this year.[/quote]

The are a second tier school and are need aware and looking for kids who will pay them $95K. I predict schools like this will have trouble going forward.  Same with WashU (although I'm not sure of their need blind/aware status) but they are similarly priced and the pool of people willing and able to pay roughly $100k/year in cash for them is shrinking.

We have HHI of $400K and my kid just got into Emory as a transfer and they want the $95k/year. There's no way we'd pay that. My child is going to an Ivy and we're honestly questioning that ROI in that school. by any standard we have a pretty High HHI and yet 100k per year of college feels completely crazy.  there have to be many like us .

Wondering whether schools in big cities like USC, BU and NYU  have sufficient allure to avoid this.[/quote]
These 3 schools have less than 50% of students report test scores so its mich easier for them to accept just anyone. And they have over 75k applicants. Washu is only getting 30k so they will struggle in that regard. [/quote]
