What kinds of universities cover most of their tuition,?
Question:
Public state colleges, private colleges or the ivy leagues?
A transfer counselor at my community college said that I should go for a state college because of the lower cost, in case I don't get most of the tuition covered.
A financial aid worker my community college said the cheaper the school, the less money they'd be willing to offer in a financial aid package...because it would seem easier for the student to cover the costs. The financial aid worker thinks I'd be better off applying to the more $$$ schools.
Either way, I'd need some financial aid...but I'm hoping that a cheaper college's financial aid dept. wouldn't think that I should be able to cover the cost. I'm also hoping that with a more pricey college, I wouldn't end up paying out of pocket for most of the costs.
For now, I agree with the financial aid worker. I'm just nervous about the amount I'd have to come up with.
Answer:
Private schools have more funding than public schools to give for scholarships and financial aid.
