Yes, I was one of those upper working class kids who got screwed over by the system.[1] I got into but could not attend my first choice (Rose-Hulman) because I could not afford it and the financial aid package did not cover even half the cost of attendance. I dropped all efforts on second choice schools when I got the acceptance letter, because I never imagined I would not be able to go due to cost. I ended up at a Florida university that barely anyone outside the state really knows.
