[quote=Anonymous]Costs will not flatten out at say maybe the top 150 - 200. However, beyond those schools, you will definitely see schools go bankrupt, will increasingly offer higher merit discounts such that the net cost is lower in both inflation-adjusted and nominal dollars, or you will see schools like Bridgewater College in VA, just outright slash tuition. They dropped tuition from $43,000 to $15,000 and in theory will stop playing the game if a very high rack rate, but a much lower actual rate. Folks, there are 3MM fewer college students today compared to 10 years ago. The number will keep dropping. Schools like Indiana University of PA and Shippensburg are 40% smaller today compared to 20 years ago. There are literally hundreds of schools like those two.[/quote]
