[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Lots of misinformation in this thread. Attempting to sort fact from fiction:

--Only about 60 colleges & universities in the US pledge to meet “100%” of students’ need (as determined by the school). Most of these schools are highly rated and accept only top students. Even among those schools that do meet full need, most of them meet that need with a combination of grants and loans. Only the following schools pledge to meet 100% of need without including loans in the aid package: Amherst, Bowdoin, Colby, Columbia, Connecticut College, Davidson, Franklin & Marshall, Olin, Harvard, [b]Haverford[/b], Pomona, Princeton, Stanford, Swarthmore, Penn, Vanderbilt, Washington & Lee, and Yale. (A handful of schools meet 100% of need without loans for lower income families: Brown, Cornell, Dartmouth, MIT, Rice, Chicago, UVA, Vassar, Wash U, Wellesley, Wesleyan). But note who is not on this list: Virtually every state university in the country. Almost every state U in the country includes loans in students' financial aid packages.

Facing a budget crunch, Haverford put loans back into student financial aid packages a couple of years ago - though not for families making less than $60K. [/quote]
