[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's price. You just can't charge 70, 80, 90 grand and not be a name school. At this price point, it's state flagships, top 50 privates, and maybe 10 SLACs. Absolutely every other school is going to have a hard time going forward. Changing demographics, fewer students, unwillingness to take out loans at these price points, etc. They're not all going to close, but they will become weaker if they haven't been planning for things over the past 15 years. It's been predictable forever. [/quote] I really think this will be a good thing. You’ll see more colleges joining forces and being able to offer more to students. You’ll also see more colleges with northeastern like “branches” in other states where they want to have an impact. The infrastructure already exists, so might as well buy up all the failing pretty colleges.[/quote]
