If your parent attended a college for two years, but dropped out before graduating, does this weigh in college admissions? The parent continues to receive literature asking for donations, but, as I said, did not finish their degree at the school. Would this reflect poorly on a student, or negatively affect their admissions decision? Would the parent’s failure to graduate look bad to an admissions board?
The school in question is a less competitive ivy.
