when did each of the 8 need-blind colleges become need-blind?

<p>Mikalye, following up on what you said, I did a little googling and found this:</p>

[Diversity</a> At MIT: 1981 to present - The Tech](<a href=“http://www-tech.mit.edu/V123/N3/timeline.3f.html]Diversity”>http://www-tech.mit.edu/V123/N3/timeline.3f.html)</p>

<p>BUT, as stated in one of the articles quoted by boho_girl (great job!) in post #3, as of 1999,</p>

<p>Surely MIT is a “top university”! </p>

<p>Anyway, I think many sources tend to neglect international students when talking about a school’s need-blind admissions policy. Maybe in 1957, MIT went need-blind just for domestic applicants, and international students were much later? That practice of excluding international applicants for convenience’s sake may also be the reason why, as boho_girl asked, Duke is sometimes mentioned as “need-blind” when it’s actually so for domestic applicants only.</p>
