[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Some do what highly academic poor and working class students did in prior generations? Attend the schools most affordable for their families. The one difference is that these students never had the option "to suck it up and pay the high prices because it's worth it even though is frustrating to pay" because they didn't and still don't have the option to pay. What is frustrating for them is trying to pay their bills to keep the car on the road, the lights on, and them in their homes. [/quote]

I was highly academic and poor and I got 75% tuition paid by my Ivy. Different problem. Granted in state would have been free but I wanted to escape from my rural backwater. [/quote]

That school was probably highly affordable for your family. And are you certain instate would have been free?

Decades ago Ivies+ didn't consider student SES when making FA decisions in the way they do today. Maybe a few or more, but not across the board policies as you see at many T20 schools, top NESCACs and SLACs, etc. .[/quote]
