<p>rbc, do you think not visiting lowers chance of acceptance? I do realize that some kids simply cannot visit because of distance and associated costs. But if a student lives within a four hour drive and doesn’t visit, don’t you think that would look bad?</p>
<p>I only wanted to make sure that kids don’t limit themselves to the uber-selective schools (which have the highest endowments) thinking that they won’t get FA at the less selective schools because of the smaller endowment. I agree that IF a student is competitive, they should apply to the schools that are in the position to be more generous with FA.</p>
