The recent college admissions scandal has had hundreds of thousands of people angry because people who didn’t work to be in prestigious colleges are buying their way in. A total of 8 universities and 33 parents were part of this. The way that some people were getting in was through bribing sports coaches with large amounts of money to let their kids join the team and therefore be accepted into the university that way. In addition to this, many would hire a proctor to help their kids cheat during the SAT and ACT. They would also hire counselors to write their kid’s essay. One parent payed up to $600,000 to cheat their kid into college. This has caused people who actually worked for a spot at a university to not be able to get in because of people who are there through buying themselves in.
