@CupCakeMuffins what difference does need blind or not mean at the grad school or medical school level? These programs give precious little need based aid. If there is funding (most Med school students don’t get funding) it is merit based and based on the strength of the application and the schools desire to have the student in the cohort.
Schools that use holistic admission standards use them for all students…not just students from rural locations or URM candidates.
What are you really asking?
