[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How does it justify costing a full $10K more than peer institutions like Williams, Bowdoin, Swarthmore?[/quote] That’s not the cost differential.[/quote] Yes, it is. All three are ~82K.[/quote] Sigh. Once again: tuition and room and board costs vs. tuition and room and board costs and personal expenses and travel etc. Apples and oranges. Difference is maybe 2 grand at most. Maybe Amherst should not put these other expenses on their website — Williams does not, though they are obviously budgeted for financial aid — to avoid this confusion. But at a certain point, if this thread wants to willfully stay confused, have at it.[/quote] Personal expenses and travel are not budgeted for mainstream financial aid. Maybe they are for special "dirt poor" programs. [/quote]
