[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Harvard is a small school that has lots of wealthy families.[/quote] Harvard and other ivies have 55-60% on need based aid, and a large amount of them are full pell grant qualified/highly aided. These elite schools have less full payers and more below the poverty line kids than SMU, tulane, Wake. Those are the real schools for the rich. WashU used to be too but they are need blind for a couple yrs now and have increased low income kids a lot. The list has been linked many times on DCUM. Ivies do very well on the metric of supporting low income as well as expansion of support well into the upper middle class(ie need aid for those in the 200-250k range)[/quote]
