What colleges are REALLY looking for....

<p>"I meant need blind at admisisons--
When you apply they don't know your income, if your Dad is loaded, who will be requesting aid and who will not, etc..."</p>

<p>They do. They know everything. Down to the zipcode. If they choose, because you put an address on the application, they can even zero in on the precise value of your house, and the amount of property tax you pay. The only question is how they use it.</p>
