[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kids applied to many CTCL colleges in the Midwest and the Pacific Northwest. Every single one of the CTCLs offered about 50 percent off. These were merit scholarships. By contrast, the NESCACs offered no aid at all, which was fair since both spouses worked and the family had enough money to pay full tuition. We ended up with a NESCAC student and a CTCL student. (My kids actually preferred many CTCLs to many NESCACs due to location, vibe, etc )[/quote] This tracks. Not a CTCL, but very similar to many of them, my daughter really liked Randolph College. They offered merit aid+an arts scholarship+a visit scholarship+VTAG money. COA would have been @$20K/yr, and that's for a not great student. For the right student, COA could have been @15K before even applying for loans of any sort or getting a FA offer if lower income than most in this area. [/quote]
