[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]They should out it towards reducing tuition. I am an alum who loved my time there but the tuition is ridiculous now and financial aid is stingy. Not worth it.[/quote] Financial aid at Northwestern in our experience is very generous (DD graduated two years ago). The Forbes article mentions that of the overall capital campaign, "$436.3 million was raised for institutional financial aid, including [b]$235.3 million[/b] for undergraduate scholarships."[/quote] So that’s what…4% of the whole campaign ($6B)? Disturbing priorities. [/quote] It is an impressive campaign, but it started publicly in March 2014 and would have probably had a 3 year private phase before that, so this is over 10 years of effort at this point, and nearly half of it has gone to Northwestern Medicine, which does not have any undergraduates.[/quote]
