At the stroke of midnight, before I knew that this insanely generous review of "The Price You Pay for College" would drop 8 hours later, I snuck into the New York Times building for a special errand. I'd like to show you. Come along? nytimes.com/2021/01/26/boo…

@scottmitter Somehow this just surfaced on this hellscape of a site that I don't really patronize anymore but THANK YOU!

Got this from library and it was so good that I bought my own copy so I can read it again with a highlighter. Thanks @ronlieber for all of the work you must have done in writing this. It’s a must read for any parent who wants to send a kid to college.

Scary stuff, this. Unrelatedly, this is a periodic reminder that I'm almost entirely over on 🧵🧵🧵 now. Same handle. Miss you all! Come over and play, higher ed and money twiXXer.

This administration is both importing voters and creating a national security threat from unvetted illegal immigrants. It is highly probable that the groundwork is being laid for something far worse than 9/11. Just a matter of time.

@melissakorn @erichoov @JonBoeckenstedt etc the higher ed content is a bit thin over there. None of us are as strong as all of us.

Thanks to all of you who have commented on my FAFSA and banking stories in recent weeks. This is a semi-regular reminder that I'm over on that site now that is kind of like Strings except not. Same username.

@AndyBorstUGA I see so much -- SO MUCH -- of this AI being defined down nonsense in press releases. Sometimes I write back for fun and just say "Define AI." Crickets.

English

Andy Borst@AndyBorstUGA·9 Eki

Yes, many colleges are using a formula based on historical (usually GPA and test score) to "finalize admissions decisions". No, a linear regression model explaining 14% of the variance is not the same as AI.

There is a zero percent chance admissions offices are using AI to read files in the way this internet survey and article imply. insidehighered.com/news/admission…

@jesslahey I'm just about there myself - Just when I think the experience here can't get any worse or more hateful, it managed to outdo itself.

Did you know that huge discounts are available at most colleges, even very selective ones, even for kids who don't qualify for financial aid? But the schools don't explain them. So my friend @ronlieber created a guide to the whole system. Learn more: meritaidcourse.com

@jlythcotthaims Thank you Julie!

@melissakorn I thought hard about drinking out of your glass or asking for the other half of that pambazo, but I didn't. That probably won't protect me from whoever gave it to you though! Hang in there.

At #NACAC23, join us for discussion w/@ronlieber @DeanSoule_UPenn @WhitneyGouche about transparency in admissions. Is more information always better? What data do applicants want colleges to disclose during the admissions process? What are the reasons colleges won't? @NACAC
