No, but we can decide by administrative fiat that Harvard can’t charge more than the community college does, and must transition its business model to be similar to that of the community college.
- SpicyLemonZest 4y agoIt's not obvious to me that we can. Harvard Community College seems like it would just end up in the same place as Harvard Extension School currently is, where everyone understands that it's not "really" Harvard and if you want the associated prestige you need to go to the 4 year residential program with competitive admissions.
- nicoburns 4y agoYou could regulate the cost of the 4 year residential programme (and presumably you also include those at similar universities while you were at it). Whether that's a good idea or not is a matter of debate, but it's essentially how most European universities work.
- the_only_law 4y agoI thought most people who get into Ivy’s end up paying surprisingly lower, even compared to a state school. The problem is you probably won’t ever get in.
- nicoburns 4y agoThe problem is also the "most". It's dependant on discretionary grants.
