What's going on at Yale for $8.08 million? Chinese girls involved in American fraud

Recently, 50 people were suspected of bribery and fraud to obtain admission qualifications of well-known universities. Yale is a famous university in the world, but now there is a girl in China who has made a big deal by spending money on Yale. What's the matter?

The schools involved include Yale University, Stanford University & hellip; & hellip;

The people involved in the case include stars and rich people & hellip; & hellip;

Among the rich families involved in the case, one from China paid as much as US $6.5 million (about RMB 43.74 million) in bribes to singer, the "trader" behind the case.

Another Chinese female student, 21-year-old Xie Li & middot; Guo Ze, spent $1.2 million (about 8.08 million yuan) and was finally admitted to Yale University.

These Chinese families

The reason is particularly striking

Because in this case

They spend far more than the 33 families currently facing criminal charges. Prosecutors say many American families spend between $250000 and $400000 on illegal schooling.

Shirley Guo's family came into contact with singer through a financial adviser in Los Angeles. In November 2017, the financial adviser told Singh that Shirley & middot; Guo's father wanted to donate money to one of the top universities she 'applied for'.

Shirley Guo's specialty was originally art. Later singer changed her artistic specialty into football specialty and established a football archive for her, which includes many awards and honors.

Singh sent information about Shelley Guo to Rudolph, who was then a woman football coach at Yale University. In the end, Shelley & middot; Guo was selected as a member of the Yale women's football team, which almost guaranteed that Shelley & middot; Guo would be admitted to Yale University. In exchange, Singh paid Rudolph $400000.

Sherry & middot; Guo's relatives paid Singh a total of $1.2 million several times, of which $900000 was called to a non-profit foundation set up by Singh.

Later, Shelly & middot; Guo entered Yale University as a student of football specialty, and began classes last fall. But at present, all the information of Shelley & middot; Guo has been deleted by the school. Sherry & middot; Guo is no longer a student at Yale, the University said.

Sherry Guo and her parents did not know that the money was used to bribe, according to her lawyer. He said that Shelley Guo's parents didn't speak English, didn't have direct contact with Singh, and Shelley Guo didn't know much about the admissions process of American universities. According to lawyers, the huge sum also shows that Singh is taking advantage of Shelley & middot; Guo's family and their lack of understanding of the enrollment process of American universities.

Latest development

At present, the background of the Chinese family who paid $6.5 million has not been known, but people familiar with the matter said the family has not been charged. Shelley & middot; Guo's family has not yet been charged, but prosecutors say the investigation is continuing.
