[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]One thing I dislike about FA is that going to a private is very much a stretch for people on FA, and year to year they may not be back. They create a level of churn in the student body that in just not there in the full pay kids. That churn creates problems of its own - pretty steady influx of new students, activities and sports teams with holes from departed students, etc. It would be better to provide multiyear FA grants, although I can see problems that that would create as well.[/quote] Where does that happen? I thought at most privates, if you are offered FA and are a valued member of the community, they do everything they can to keep you. The only people I've known to leave were full pay who were not willing to cut their expenses more - i.e., take driving vacations instead of flying, stop eating out at restaurants frequently, forget about getting new cars, etc.[/quote]
