[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hopeless foreign apps from China and India are the dirty secret of college admissions. They make the denominator enormous. [/quote] Hopeless? More likes wealthy. A ton of students from Shanghai escaping the Gaokao rat race.[/quote] The ones they take are wealthy. The ones they reject need full rides, hence hopeless. With very few exceptions, international is a need aware process. But if a school does take you, they will typically cover all your needs. So maybe they take some poor African students…. I think what happens is all these foreign kids blanket schools with applications hoping to win the lottery somewhere, anywhere. Different story if your father is a Shanghai billionaire. Then you can go anywhere…. In any event, these foreign apps make all schools seem much more selective than they are. [/quote]
