They asked a few random sources: one was a Georgia Tech admissions counselor, one was a former Yale graduate (that’s all they said) and one was a father of a prospective student. Oh and they also asked someone who was Jewish.
They didn’t present a single fact or figure that I saw. That article is a slap in the face to journalism.

"Even if I could’ve gotten into Harvard, I wouldn’t have gone," Katz said. "I wanted a school that felt right for me, not someplace that we’re told we’re supposed to want to go."
😂 well there you have it, kid who couldn’t get in to Harvard would not have gone.

This sounds like the guys who end up signing with the Coots.
"Despite Clemson winning multiple national championships and me not getting an offer from them because they recruit higher caliber players, I am happy to be here in Cootville with Beamer Jr."

Here's a stat:
In 2023, for example, about 19 percent of total enrollment at Clemson in South Carolina came from New York and New Jersey—a big change from 2017, when the top out-of-staters were from the Carolinas and Georgia.

Well, if you read this board there are clearly people affiliated with Clemson

who don't want the elite 'northeast' types or California elite in our backyard. So this should be interesting if true.
I say great for Clemson if they can capitalize and bring the best and brightest, but something tells me this will be controversial.

We arent filtering down solely to best and brightest.

It’s a money grab. We are filtering down to bright kids whose parents don’t flinch at the ridiculous tuition, especially that massive out of state premium.

Seems like a lot of in-state schools are trying to pull in the NE money. Heck, some in-state schools are offering IN-STATE tuition to out of state students to entice them to come to school here.

If Clemson does that, I would really like to know about it

I live out of state so my daughter cannot get instate tuition to Clemson, and last I checked they don't give out of state rates for good students anymore.
AS it is, the out of state rates for Clemson are too much for us, but could easily afford in state.

My educated guess is Clemson Bridge students are among the wealthiest kids (parents) attending Clemson.

that wasn't the case when I was a bridge student.
It was mainly middle-class / small town kids with parents who were alumni.

Please don’t come here. It’s terrible. You won’t like it. Wish I could somehow get that message to anyone considering moving to South Carolina.
