Recent Shifts on Aid by Elite Colleges Signal New Push To Help the Middle Class.
Gose, Ben
Chronicle of Higher Education, v44 n26 pA43-A44 Mar 6 1998
Several elite private colleges have announced additional financial aid sources for middle class students, because enrollment patterns suggested previous policies attracted proportionately more low- and high-income than middle-income students. One college feels the new policy encourages families to save for college. Critics say the institutions are "buying students" and that the trend could hurt the truly needy. (MSE)
