It is 2013, parents; is Vassar really need blind ?

<p>Of course Bill Gates’ kids would get priority, everyone can tell from their names that they’re Bill Gate’s kids.</p>

<p>Look, colleges won’t know your economic status unless you state it on your app. End of story. And Vassar is hardly the first college to adopt a policy helping low-income students, QuestBridge has been around since 2006.</p>

<p>And why does a dip in SAT scores matter? It’s still well within the top percentage range, maybe Vassar cares about things other than scores? Hm… Do you think QuestBridge kids are the reason? They’re 6% of the entire campus. That equates to about 36 QuestScholars a year. I’m sure that must be it. And it’s not like the programs been going on at Vassar for years.</p>

<p>Look, you know nothing. You’re citing statistics and pretending you know all the details behind them. You aren’t an admission officer. You aren’t Cappy. You don’t even go to/have any ties with Vassar. Colleges don’t lie when they’re only partially need-blind, why would Vassar be any different? Be honest, was your middle-class kid rejected?</p>

<p>Also, you’re looking at the kids who go to Vassar. Ever think that middle/low-income people this year just went to different schools? It’s not like everyone admitted went there.</p>
