[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Because private school parents need schools that seem appealing/impressive to other private school parents. Several schools have carved out that space by being “rich kid” schools. Tulane, Wake, Northeastern, etc. Look at their Pell grant numbers, they have some of the lowest percentages of any national university.[/quote] And we have an answer. They are places that signal the right something about Tier 2 full pay private school kids. And once your kid is attending a school, especially if you are shelling out almost $400k, you really have no choice but to go all in on the school. If you are status conscious enough to full pay Tulane instead of sending your kid to JMU, you are going to put on the “and it’s amazing face”. And deep down we all do want to believe our kid is at a great college. [/quote]
