[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Are merit packages always guaranteed for 4 years? Does one need to figure in tuition increases, and aren't they unpredictable? This whole process seems so arbitrary and unfair, with every family paying a different amount for the same product. We did private k-12 and it took us awhile to figure out it happens there, too. The VA publics are looking good to us for college as a way to escape these shenanigans. Fortunately we have saved enough for that....[/quote] Merit aid is for four years but the student must maintain a certain GPA. THe purpose is to attract students who would otherwise not attend the school. Whether or not its a wise use of resources is an open question but colleges clearly think it is because the number of schools overing merit aid has grown.[/quote]
