[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Umm - Stanford is the S in HYPS. Mine is also going to Stanford in the fall and we will be paying full freight. They say only 15% of students at Stanford pay 100% of the tuition. It makes me feel like a sucker to be one of the few paying full price but D worked hard and we can afford it.[/quote]

I feel the same way.  That's why I asked the question.[/quote]

This is false; 45% of Stanford students are full pay.[/quote]

Well the total cost of attendance at Stanford is ~62K.  Stanford provides financial aid for all of what they consider demonstrated financial need (at least what the FAFSA says is demonstrated need). To be expected to pay full freight, your household income needs to be ~250K+, which puts you in ~the top 3% of earners in the US.  So while that may be a crazy amount of money to pay for college at that income, if not you paying full freight, who would be?  Over half of families in the US don't even make 62K a year.[/quote]
