[quote=Anonymous]My alma mater (a SLAC) is a school that does only need based aid, no merit based aid. They allocated their financial aid based solely on demonstrated financial need based on FAFSA and CSS profile. However, they don't have a large enough endowment to be 100% need blind. From people I know who have worked in the admissions office, what they do is assemble the class they would like to have, and then make adjustments for the marginal students based on what they can allocate for financial aid. If the college is a "reach" school for you, you are more likely to get in if you are full pay. However, if you are a solid applicant, it's unlikely to impact the decision to admit you.[/quote]
