[quote=Anonymous]My guess is that the market will support rising tuition for the top schools. However, some of the smaller private schools that don't offer as much value for the $ may struggle to keep enrollment high enough over time to continue, and those schools often may not have as large an endowment either to help during the hard times. The economy plays a role as well. For example, some privates in Maryland have seen enrollment decline with the economy as families moved to public schools. Unless those schools have a target niche (ie learning differences at McLean), it's hard to expect parents to pay astronomically high tuition with the justification that the tuition is on par with their competitors. obviously value for the $ is very subjective. And you could see enrollment rise at some of the Catholic privates that have lower tuitions.[/quote]
