@GirlChild, the “development admit” reference can get confusing as so many CC’ers refer to them as “developmental” admits. Uh, yeah, SLIGHTLY different animals!
Development is a euphemism for fund-raising. I work in the development (aka “advancement”) field and started out as a work-study student in my university’s development office back in the late seventies. I thought I was applying for a job related to real estate.
