Early Admissions Lawsuit

This is an interesting article because it deals with early admission applications. The gist of the lawsuit revolves around money because it "argues that schools are not incentivized to provide generous financial aid to early decision applicants because they know no other school can compete by topping their offer. Those policies create and maintain a conspiracy between schools that reduces price competition and violates antitrust law, the complaint says." The lawsuit presents major consequences for high school seniors involved in the application process. While the lawsuit centers around elite colleges and universities, the results could affect all major schools across the country. This is an issue that I plan to follow as the lawsuit continues in courts.
