[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Example: the University of Arizona is still taking applications and offering financial aid.

So are Alfred University, Hofstra and Pace in New York; Whittier in California; and South Dakota State, which is only about $25,000 all in for out-of-state students:

You might want to investigate Whittier a little further before going that route.

That’s going to be the case for most of the privates on that list. Make of that what you will.[/quote]

It seems like privates are either the elite (how most people would use that term, not DCUM debating if Cornell is elite) or in real trouble. Without state support and without the ability to really scale like research universities, you're left with a very high overhead which requires high tuition, but people are becoming more skeptical about paying Harvard prices for Bennington. There are a few like Dickenson who seem to be doing well attracting kids who want, but can't afford, slacs with tons of merit, but I don't think that's sustainable  [/quote]
