"One of Princeton's defining values is our commitment to ensure that talented students from all backgrounds can not only afford a Princeton education but can flourish on our campus and in the world beyond it," President Christopher Eisgruber said. "These improvements to our aid packages, made possible by the sustained generosity of our alumni and friends, will enhance the experiences of students during their time at Princeton and their choices and impact after they graduate.
Under the new policies, families making less than $100,000 will pay nothing for tuition or room and board. More than 25% of the student body is expected to receive this level of aid.
In other news, Princeton is now only accepting students who come from families who make more then $100k
I’ll be more impressed when they cover tuition, room and board for those making under $400k, which is most of the USA. As should any university in the USA.
And
How many students that are accepted are from families making less than 100k? You're pandering to the people instead of just doing what you do. You're going to get backlash because it's only going to be 1 to 3 students that receive this help. Should have stayed in your lane.
Way to destroy your brand Princeton, good work!
This sounds great but watch when they only accept 5 people …
This will greatly devalue the credibility of their degrees. I’m all for it!
😂
Wow hope that doesn’t hurt their 59 billion endowment fund.
Education is the only thing that should be free! A well educated population do not need FREE stuff because they will be able to take care of themselves! Anyone care to explain why we have welfare, but not free education! US gives free billions $ for war, no one is complaining!
themonsterplaza time to shine
Omg I need to go there
Inflation going up. How about every person that gets student loan assistance work's off that $100,000 to the state they reside of.
So let’s forget those families making 100,500.00.
This sucks.... where was the handouts when I was in high school and born in this country. C'mon Apophis
Of course ONLY 1 or 2 students would be accepted that meets that requirement.
Does you have to be the African-American, gay, or a dwarf to be eligible?
Nothings free. Wonder who has to cover the fees
That's just free indoctrination. You can get that on Netflix without leaving the house.
Eliminate SAT requirements next
Wow. Pretty cool.
I started college somehow simultaneously too late and too early.
