Single Choice EA Surges--But with the Middle Class Caught in the Middle (Again)

I went to a recent Brown admissions talk and the adcom was very honest in stating that they will meet all the need of admitted students but run some type of formula to make sure the mix of students they plan to accept won’t exceed the FA budget. If that were the case, they would change decisions before they went out.

<p>Brown went to need-blind admissions in 2002. And they still claim to be need-blind for Frosh applicants on their website. OTOH, financial aid is limited for transfer applicants to Brown.</p>
