[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Most schools don't give aid to young kids. they don't have to and there is no value add to them (what can 3 and 6 year olds bring to a school?) and they're then stuck with those kids only paying half price or whatever for 12 years. That ties up a lot of money with kids who may end up being mediocre. [/quote] Agree with everything you said. Any aid to young kids is probably just faculty children getting aid as an employment benefit, which should be in a separate category but for optics is probably reported as financial aid.[/quote] My family is only one data point, but my kid started receiving FA in pre-K (at a school that goes through 8th grade) and has continued to receive the same level of aid over the years. He isn’t checking any DEI boxes for the school. Schools want to attract families that they think will be a good fit, and FA is a huge way to do that. [/quote]
