Expanding College Opportunities fee wavers?

Applying to College
1

<p>They have been sending me stuff, and today I signed up on their online website because they sent me an application code, but when I googled "expanding college opportunities", I noticed a lot of people from previous years got 8 fee wavers (which would be really nice because my parents are divorced and my dad just quit his job). I looked on the website and it said nothing about them giving me fee wavers but just rambled on about maybe qualifying for them if you have low income (which I don't, per se, but I feel bad about applying to tons of schools and asking my parents for money).</p>

<p>So, does anyone think that fee wavers may be coming in the mail? Has anyone gotten fee wavers from ECO this year, or should I just give up on it?</p>

<p>Also, on a side note, how do they select people for this program? My SAT is just 2130, so it's not really Harvard-good, and I'm just curious.</p>

<p>I was a participant in the ECO last year. ECO did not provide any fee waivers, but they sent me “a token of appreciation” after a long survey in May or June.</p>
