I have a solution…maybe Illinois publics should start using the Profile with NCP Profile required.

That would certainly greatly reduce the number of Illinois students who get financial aid, since so many have divorced parents, many of whom are uncooperative. Since so many of them will not be able to afford college in that case, that may also reduce the overcrowding in some campuses and majors.

From a student’s point of view, that tips going to college even more to being based on parental circumstances and choices, rather than the student’s own academic achievement.
