<p>What chsowlflax17 said. The “outrage” from the current PLMEs stems from the fact that they enrolled into the program without having the applying out restriction in place, and some of them may have based their decision to enroll on this “flexibility”. So in a sense by wanting to apply this rule retroactively, Brown is in a way not keeping to its end of the bargain.</p>
<p>But from the Class of 2014 onwards this rule is explicitly stated at the point of application, so it’s absolutely a fair game. Furthermore I don’t see the need for Brown to accommodate those who want to have their cake and eat it too.</p>
