[quote=Anonymous]I started my Ivy four/five years after immigrating to the U.S. my parents were poor and only got off welfare maybe a year before I started college. I had financial aid, worked, AND took out loans, but tuition then was so much more affordable, for lack of a better word. Now in a similar situation, I would've gone for free because my parents' income was so low. My kids will also have to take out loans if they want to go to an Ivy (if they get in because it's also so much harder now). We are a donut hole family despite, as others have said, having done everything right. Salaries have not kept up with the insane increase in college costs. [/quote]
