[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]ok, but $90k/year isn't a workable stretch for anyone who is truly middle class. Not by a long shot.[/quote]

Middle class people don't pay 90k. We pay 20-45k[/quote]

Yes $300-450k are full pay $95k/year.

I should have quit my job and gone to a 1-bread winner household a few years ago.  lol

$300K - $450K isn't middle class.  [/quote]

Didn't all the research into the Ivies for the Harvard lawsuit reveal that Ivy student bodies are predominately wealthy fully pay or diversity admits at full financial aid and relatively few in between, aka the middle classes? One thing the data made clear was that the middle classes may dominate the US but they are a minority at the Ivies. [/quote]

It breaks down generally like 45% receive significant aid, 16% are from the top 1%...and then the rest (39%) are full pay from the spectrum of what would make you full pay.  Princeton is more generous with aid compared to the other Ivy schools, to it is like 60% receive aid (though that now captures a group that may only receive say like $5k per year), 16% are top 1% and then 26% are full pay.

I wouldn't call it relatively few "in between".[/quote]
