In case you haven't heard, Harvard doesn't want to be misunderstood. They are not just looking for qualified low-income applicants. They want qualified middle-income applicants as well.
Don't get me wrong, these new financial aid proposals are good and necessary ways to make college more affordable, even more, to make great universities appear more attainable to all students.
I only take mild issue with the fact that everything they do with regard to financial aid ends up on the front page (ok, an exaggeration) and on the radio and the news.
Princeton replaced loans with more grants quite a few years ago... I could look up the year, but I am not sufficiently interested. Suffice to say, for those who can get into the richer of the ivies, there are good financial aid packages. It is definitely worth the application fee to see if you can get in and the kind of package they will offer.
Don't let money ever stand in your way.
