[quote=Anonymous]I’m the OP. This has given me a lot to digest. At the end of the day, there are lots of pathways and IPs. We all know this. The discomfort comes from the cagey responses from the admission office. They did not sound transparent. Nor did they sound proud of the program. If you feel like you are doing something dodgy, you likely are. On some level they know this does not align with the school’s publicly stated mission. It’s sad. Of course there will be a method for getting less qualified, full pay students in the backdoor. The ugly bit is that they are hiding them behind FGLI kids. It’s unnecessary, and feels exploitative. I can’t put my finger on exactly why this bothers me so much. But if you feel like you are observing something ick, you likely are. They would be wise to codify the program, the admissions and the messaging on this before they do it again next year. [/quote]
