[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I remember when I was a middle class kid in college being in awe that 60% of my fellow students had no financial aid. I imagined that their parents could just write out checks, but I suppose maybe some did take out loans. More recently, I was looking at stats for one school (Holy Cross) and I think half of the class came from private schools so I guess it's not surprising that they can afford to pay for private college, too. [/quote] Back then (Assuming you attended college in late 80s/early 90s), it was not easy to just take out massive loans for college. Federal loans were about the only thing.[/quote]
