Oh sure honey. Take your 10k and apply it to our private school.
Of course our private will just raise tuition another 10k…[/quote]

I’m sure private schools would love it if families who might apply for financial aid already had 10k covered by an alternate source.  While $10,000 in vouchers wouldn’t allow everyone to apply, it would certainly increase the pool of qualified applicants, including qualified applicants who are diverse in various ways. [b]I don’t see why they would raise tuition, especially if voucher money replaced some of their financial aid budget.[/b][/quote]

Umm, because private schools are private businesses whose primarily goal is maximizing profits?  Put another way, I don't see why they wouldn't raise tuition in that scenario. Maybe not by the full $10k, and maybe not as a 1-year step, but a couple grand a year for a few years straight? No doubt.[/quote]
