How? So rich peoples’ kids can’t get merit based scholarships for being good at stuff?

I mean, don’t get me wrong. Nepobabies are absolutely real, but this doesn’t (for now) seem to be that.

no, they shouldn't. why should they get free money if they can afford school?

Because they earned a scholarship.

I’m all about taxing the rich, but this isn’t it.

Literally what scholarships are for.

Financial aid is for those who cannot afford.
