[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]"This is partly because these colleges tend to have fewer resources to recruit high-achieving students from low-income families, and smaller financial aid funds to pay their way" This is a joke. Previous paragraph mentions Georgetown. Super difficult to drive around the DMV. Considering the price is so inflated, aid can be offered without losing a lot. Full need is extreme but decent financial aid when you admit Pell eligible students is achievable. They don't want the poor. [/quote] look at the charts. The poor are over represented, just not as over represented as the richest. The under represented categories are families who are near full pay or just full pay which shouldn't surprise anyone. 375k is a lot of money and most families won't either drain their savings or go into debt to pay it [/quote]
