[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I always assume kids going to Kenyon likely got into the “1st tier” SLACs but needed the merit aid that Kenyon offers - like kids going to Case or Grinnell or Oberlin. Bright kids whose families can afford $50-$60k tuition but not $80k. Is this no longer true?[/quote] It may be partially true. Merit packages are as high as $25k and something like 1/4 get merit. I think in some cases the merit money makes the difference; I personally don’t think a Bates or Colby have a stronger student body or offer a better education in any way, so why not take the discount? But obviously a lot of kids are full pay or getting smaller merit discounts. Not that many kids are getting the large merit award (maybe 10 pct?)[/quote]
