Top schools tend to give full rides to sufficiently poor students. (I probably would've bothered to apply to them if I'd known that before I started at my state university...)
- huac 11y agoVery few give aid packages without loans though (at least circa a few years ago).
- agentgt 11y agoFrom my understanding there are hidden programs that are done by the alumni. I have in-law distant family member that had is entire MIT tuition paid by a mysterious alumni he never met nor talked to and it was not a loan or aid package. I have also heard others from Harvard getting similar results.
