5 admissions scandals that rocked the college world
Abstract:The college admissions scandal that broke in March 2019 is hardly the first of its kind. There's a long history of cheating to get into a top school.
The college admissions scandal that broke in March 2019 is hardly the first of its kind.There's a long history of lying, cheating, and greasing palms to get into a top school.For example, Harvard reportedly has a list of legacy students who may be less likely to need financial aid.When a college-admissions scandal breaks, it typically shocks students, parents, and educators. But it happens more often than you might think.Sometimes parents make donations to elite schools, presumably so their kids will have a better shot at admittance. Other times schools themselves show favor to the children of alumni, or of otherwise wealthy and powerful figures.Below, we've listed five of the most salacious college-admissions scandals from recent memory.
