[quote=Anonymous]It is surprising to people who aren’t yet aware that college pricing works like everything else. It is not sacred. There are many colleges at different price points and you should attend one you can afford. I think that the point of the article is to enlighten people that they need to shop around and shouldn’t assume anything about either the final cost (like the fake price tag at Ursinus) or financial aid (like the fact that the girl who had need didn’t get anything from Penn State or NYU). You can research each school before applying (run the NPC and look at the common data set for average merit awards) but no guarantees on how much you will get. Penn State and NYU though are known for not giving aid. [/quote]
