<p>Do most students fill these out, and fill them out completely? S received one that asks very personal info-ie: Income range of family in increments of 20,000. How much grant money, loan, work/study was offered at the chosen school? How much of a strain, or ease are the college payments for your parents? How do they plan on paying (ie: past savings, current income, help from relatives/friends etc)? Each survey is numbered so that they know which students completed it, and they said they will continue to send reminders for those that do not. They would also know which survey belongs to which student.</p>
<p>What bothers me also, that there is not a comment section for a student to elaborate as to why they chose a different college.</p>
<p>If you are not going to the school you don't need to do it. If you are you probably should. It's just so they know their market so they can better target the best students for them. They don't care about the individual numbers one bit.</p>
<p>Thanks. My son is not going there. He received no grant money (merit aid or financial aid) and this was a safety in terms of stats and admission. My son really liked the school, and would have seriously considered it with a nice merit aid package. There is no room on the survey to express that sentiment anyway, and I think that is all that they need to know. </p>
<p>Do you think that not completing it would have any shred of an effect on a younger sibling, should he decide to apply to this school in the future?</p>
<p>The survey being numbered, and tracked for responses is a bit unsettling to me.</p>
