7 figure donations are structured and often tied to other events like donor matches. If I donate that much and the kid doesn't get in, the school is going to have to litigate if they want the subsequent installments.
Development offices were not born yesterday. It’s all about cash in hand.

True. I have seen it - about $10m for an "athlete". Also, what happens WHEN (not if) your kid finds out you had to pay to get them into that school??
Gross.
Let your kid live THEIR life, not yours.
Really? So tell where you’ve seen it and who the athlete is. Just let us know where and by whom the $10 mill came from. We will wait to hear about this person that you’ve seen this happen to….

Just know a big donor who will write a letter for you. It worked for us at a top 20.
