re: #219 Dr. Matt

“Applied as a foreign student” makes zero sense. This statement doesn’t exist in real life. I matriculated at three different universities and taught at two more. The phrase “applied as a foreign student” does not exist. Attendance rolls, transcripts, or student ids do not differentiate between foreign students and native-born students. The entire premise is so ridiculous and only proves that the rwnjs spreading the nonsense never set foot on a college campus.

From an admission point of view, it’s idiotic to apply as a foreign student if you don’t have to. You’re vetted more closely, registration fees tend to be higher, and some aids are limited to local students. And, as you mention, you don’t get an asterisk indicating you applied as a foreign student.
