[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Where were all these policies when I went to college. Other than subsidized Stafford loans, I didn’t get crap, despite having two non college educated parents and HHI 60k. Loans for me. It sucked. [/quote] You didn't go to an Ivy League school. [/quote] I was wondering when/where they went to school. My experience at an expensive private university 20 years ago (with the same HHI) was the opposite. Aid covered it enough to make it the same cost as an in-state public flagship.[/quote] I went to a top10 24years ago and it was cheaper than my flagship. I was a pell grant recipient from a low income family, no loans. It is even better today: a much larger sector of applicants, up to around 100k, go for zero cost, and for the ones that get some aid but not full aid, it is almost always less total cost at the ivy/elite than at the flagship.
