Yale has an endowment of $2.4 million per student. Its last 10 year annual returns were 9.5%, that is $228,000 per student per year. The $67,000 tuition is a chump change.
Why would they ever spend the endowment on undergraduates?
Don’t you know what the boards mission is with the endowment?
They already do. That is why T10 schools are the greatest deals in education. The tough part is getting that deal.
All the T10's lose money on every kid they enroll. You have to think of them as giant hedge funds who are funding students in the hope of getting much larger amounts from them back as "alumni giving".
Is that why Harvard students are still up in arms about hot breakfast?

They are not drawing on that endowment to pay for poor students. It’s just not happening in this environment.
Schools are going to become highly risk-averse in this chaotic environment. It will be interesting to see what happens in the next six weeks.
Hopefully one of those famous podcasts will cover this issue.

Targeting full pay students just sounds like wishful thinking.
