[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't think so. SN schools don't have big endowments like private schools. [/quote] This is true - in part because many of the SN schools are new. Plus they are dependent on parent donations - few are going to have wealthy alums donating even when they are more established. And the parents are already stretched by tuition. The cost of running the school often exceeds tuition so fundraising goes to that gap rather than financial aid. And even for the older more established schools (like Lab and Kingsbury) FA was not historically needed because so many kids were funded. When the funding dried up they weren't able to switch on the FA spigot right away, although at least Lab is starting to but they've had pretty good fundraising in place for a while.[/quote]
