How do parents get their children into grad school?

Oh, and earlier this year, we did receive a marketing video from a parents to try to get their kid into a program. It was a professionally made 10 minute video on how great the student is and how successful she would be in our school. I saw those things during my MBA time, and I know athletes do it to try to get scholarships from colleges, but I’ve never seen a graduate student application with one.

Give it 5 years, and it will be the “in” thing to do.
