I believe CC is popular and helpful because we have the collective wisdom of everybody from everywhere. That is why I refer to other posters who are much more familiar with the college admissions process. Otherwise why should anyone listen to “alamemom” or “tocollege”, to me both screenames seem to come from the same family.
Post #54 is to prove that eventhough college states they are need-blind, colleges can predict who need financial aid and who doesn’t, which support my theory that USC does not need to look at the Financail aid application in order to grant merit aid, it knows by looking at the application. Other parents in the parents forum have stated that some college websites do actually misrepresenting things. So I’m sure I’m not the only that has this belief. No data and sources to prove otherwise, these are the sort of things that most colleges guarded very closely.</p>
