From the article and the comments here I can assume that I'm in the minority since I was ineligible for any financial aid and paid full tuition. We "qualified" for unsubsidized loans which I do not consider to be aid and did not take. I consider my family to be middle class. We have one income for a family of five. Sending three kids to state college would cost us over $375,000. I've only sent one so far and it cost $130,000 with room and board for state college. I guess our tuition is paying for everyone who got a substantial discount.
