[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The schools that give “merit” to everyone really should just drop their list price. It’s honestly just a discounted price, but this is how they do things, for whatever reason. To be fair, several of these schools were on my daughter’s list (not the ones listed above, though)[/quote] Are most schools that do this privates?[/quote] Yes[/quote] So what’s the point then? Of the high sticker price but cash for everyone?[/quote] The view that a high sticker price = quality...even though nearly everyone doesn't pay the sticker price. Bridgewater College in VA took the opposite approach. Decided not enough kids were applying with the high sticker price, so dropped tuition by 60% and got rid of merit aid.[/quote]
