Some US colleges adopt a different approach. "We would all like to say we do not care how much parents give, in the form of donations or tuition, but we do because we care about what is good for the institution, " says Richard Fuller, head of admissions at Hamilton College in New York State. This is a break from the post-war tradition of trying to ignore money. Admissions to US universities were democratised by the growth of scholarships and loans to cover the roughly $ 35 000 needed to attend an elite university such as Harvard or the Ivy League of east coast colleges. This led to so-called" need-blind" policies.
But as the cost of attracting faculty and building facilities has risen, colleges including Hamilton, Johns Hopkins, Smith and Oberlin have changed tack. They have started to state openly that parents’ ability to pay is a factor in admissions policy, particularly for marginal candidates.
The retreat of need-blind policies caused an uproar and Brown University, Rhode Island, reinstated the approach. Ruch Simmons, the university’s new president, received a full scholarship when she attended Dillard University in New Orleans. She regards a need-blind admissions policy as a"moral imperative".
But even at need-blind colleges, wealth can help. "You would probably have to get(admissions officers)dead drunk before they would admit it—but of course if Jack Welch’s or Bill Gates’ kids show up, they are going to get different treatment, " says Tom Mortenson, editor of Postsecondary Education Opportunity newsletter.
Before this passage, the author talked about the practice of the Oxford university, then what is the attitude held by Oxford university about offering admission opportunity for donation of money?
