[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The bottom line is that it is very binary. Below $X, free ride. A few dollars over, little or nothing. How about having more of a continuum. I'm also not a supporter of free rides. [/quote] If your family makes 150k they guaranteed free tuition (not necessarily room and board), but they DO NOT say "a few dollars over, little or nothing" - that's your interpretation that conveniently serves your point rather than being rooted in fact or example. Private colleges - like Tufts and others mentioned in this thread (Harvard, Princeton) - absolutely give financial aid to families making 155, 160, 170... the number just happens to be at their discretion. As a private entity they have determined a threshold they believe serves their community. You may not be a supporter of free rides, but you aren't giving the ride and they are capable of deciding how to spend their money.[/quote]
