[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's like K-12 private schools, PP. A majority are quite wealthy, and a handful are low-income on financial aid. The middle class is entirely squeezed out.[/quote] That might not be a great social fit for my kid anyway. [/quote] +100 My DS wants to go to a SLAC but not one filled with only rich kids. They don't seem to exist as all the SLACs are so expensive.[/quote] It's a smear to say SLACs have only rich kids. 40-65% of students at these schools are on financial aid with average award in the 50k range. There are a lot of rich kids outside that group but someone has to pay the bills.[/quote] 76% of Middlebury students have parents families in the top 20% of hhi. [/quote] Where'd you get that stat from? Because how does that square with this stat from the school's website? [b]Middlebury provides grant aid to about half of the student body. For the Class of 2025, the average grant was $57,000.[/b] https://www.middlebury.edu/college/admissions/affordability#:~:text=Middlebury%20provides%20grant%20aid%20to,apply%2C%20visit%20Student%20Financial%20Services.[/quote] If the 57K is over four years, there are still a lot of near full pay students in the group receiving aid.[/quote]
