[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]STA's endowment is very large. I don't know what but I've heard it's the largest in DC. It's what allows them to very generous with financial aid and to be the one DC school that is truly "need blind" for admissions. Something like 40% of the boys get aid while other schools (including NCS) are around 20%. [/quote] Ask not what percent of kids get aid but what percent of total revenues the school is willing to set aside for aid. That's all in the 990's too. I think Burke is more generous than most of them on that metric but could be wrong. That's a better metric for determining your school's view on aid and who gets in. If your school wants you to give on Giving Tuesday, ask how generous are they with giving back.[/quote]
