> To deny someone admission due to poor academics is to deprive the university of revenue. I understand and agree this would be the case for low ranked universities but the article supposedly refers to an Ivy League uni or at least something close. Don't these universities have fixed admission numbers along with the ability to pick from the best and brightest? They don't have to fight for students, students have to fight to get into the uni. In this case it just doesn't make sense to lower the bar.
