NY Times Article 09-09-14- Most economically diverse top colleges

<p>“Yet for many low-income children – even many who get A’s in high school and do well on the SAT – college remains out of reach.”

  • I do not understand this statement at all. Why “free” tuition UG is out of reach? And it maybe even full ride. And they also work (all UGs work). What is out of reach when a kid has As and decent score? There are plenty UGs out there who will be glad to offer huge Merits to such a kid. It is a big LIE, but what else to expect from the media anymore?</p>
