[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The thing about these lists is that they may or may not be meaningful. There are many kids at these magnet programs, including Blair, who are qualified for but whose families cannot afford e.g. Harvard or MIT. These kids wind up at "lesser" schools like U.Va, U.Md, or Pitt, with lots of merit aid.[/quote] Your point falls apart though with respect to the [u]biggest-name[/u] schools, including Harvard, Yale and MIT: they are need blind and will pay all expenses for the [b]kids they want whose families cannot afford room AND board. [/b]I realize that's not the case with, say, Duke or UCLA, but it is certainly the case with HY Columbia and MIT Probably Stanford and CalTech too, but I don't know that for fact. [/quote] "Afford" is defined by FAFSA and may or may not reflect reality.[/quote]
