[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]CTCL schools aren't worth anything close to sticker price. But if you're good enough to get a lot of merit aid from them, you can get into a much better college that actually has a name. Therein lies the rub. [/quote] My experience, with my son, is that most private schools know they’re not worth the sticker price. For kids with donut hole parents, they “provide enough merit aid” to match the full in-state cost of attendance for the student’s state flagship.[/quote] If no one actually pays the sticker price at these places, why don't they just lower the sticker price to a reasonable amount? Is it so everyone feels like they're getting a "bargain"? :roll: [/quote] I also read somewhere that some colleges that have tried cutting their rates have found that demand drops.[/quote]
