As a current Ivy League student that's on full financial aid, I do agree somewhat with the analysis presented in the article. However, there are a lot of great programs that are out there that are trying to rectify this situation. I applied to college through the QuestBridge[0] program, and in addition to providing tools and guidance for me in the application process, I've been fortunate enough to find a network of people in similar situations at school. They also do outreach, especially through alumni of the program. [0] http://questbridge.org/ http://questbridge.org/
