[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Tuition will keep going up, though see the trends -- some schools have significantly higher tuition than others.  E.g., Catholic schools are quite a bit lower.  Maret has been noted as having a lower tuition than other top schools (by several thousand dollars).

Financial aid will likely become more and more the norm.  At top DC private schools, about 25% of kids receive some financial aid.  I can see that number continuing to rise (at many private colleges, the % of kids getting FA is around 50%, as a somewhat analogous example of where we could be going).

So, there may be no cap in sight, though I can see FA amounts and percentages going up bit by bit.[/quote]

Catholic schools are a separate category, funded completely differently and also not the same product.  See also, Jewish schools[/quote]

Why don't you tell us just how Catholic schools are funded. And in what ways the "product" is significantly different.

Ummm...no.   Independent Catholic schools are probably about 50% Catholic students (with the exception of schools like Heights and Oakcrest)[/quote]
