[quote=Anonymous]Bullis has in fact expanded -- which they are trumpeting -- because they are filling a number of seats with recruited athletes getting major financial aid (including some families that did not come close to qualifying for aid at prior schools). They are giving athletic scholarships, in effect (although probably the majority of the recipients would qualify for need-based aid). The expansion is to bring in more full tuition payers to offset the athletes they've brought in.* It might work for Bullis -- they are getting a lot of publicity -- but there is concern it is not a viable strategy for the long haul. This is not a school with a big endowment so tuition revenue is key. *(Bullis gets a lot of football coverage in the MoCo Gazette, and for every other player it reads 'a transfer from' [insert public, private,or Catholic school])[/quote]
