[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I remember reading an article about how NYU deliberately revamped itself from a regional commuter state school catering to non-trad students into a prominent "elite" college through strategies like massively rising tuition (George Washington was the other example) because people associated more benefits with higher costs. NYU took advantage of the revitalization of NYC starting in the mid 1990s to transform itself. Even today most kids go to NYU to be in New York, not the university. But NYU isn't alone in selling fancy degrees to hoodwinked applicants. Most of the elite colleges have master's programs that fall into this category, costing wildly beyond what post-graduate salaries will be. [/quote] Not much different for the undergraduate schools.
