[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Name some SLACS that give good merit aid or are not 50k+ to attend.[/quote] Almost all SLACs are $50k plus to attend BUT give merit aid. The ivies do not give merit aid by agreement among them. Some LACs like Temple or Fordham that are especially eager to recruit top-tier kids give $$$$ in merit aid. I've seen this. You have apparently missed the ginormous debate going on in higher ed today, precisely about the burgeoning student loan crisis and the value of a $240,000 degree. Especially if the student is going to major in something non-lucrative, like teaching or theater. You're not going to convince anyone that many families are [b]indifferent[/b] to the choice between an Ivy with tens of thousands in student loan debt, vs. a good state or SLAC or LAC with lots of merit aid.
