[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]They are all good schools. They are expensive and none offer merit aid. So either you pay full tuition or you receive financial aid. My DC wanted to apply to Tufts but we crossed it off our list because of cost (along with a lot of other schools). If a school is $65,000 a year for undergrad and does not offer merit aid then off the list it goes.[/quote] While this statement is absolutely true for some, it does not tell the whole picture for a very large segment of the population. Please look at the need-based financial aid offered by each school. Families with HHI of $200k or less will often find that need-based aid can exceed merit scholarships (often by a large margin) and the mix of aid provided (grants versus loans) can keep student indebtedness to less than the amount for a large public institution.
