Pretty cool ( even tho I can't fathom paying $45k+ per year for college ).
Last week, 2,144 teenagers got the news they'd long dreamed of: they got accepted to Stanford University.
The cherry on top is that Stanford also announced it was expanding
financial aid. The university said that no parents with an annual income
and typical assets of less than $125,000 will have to pay a single cent
toward tuition. The threshold for this aid was previously $100,000.
Stanford also said it will offer free room and
board -- in addition to free tuition -- for those making less than
$65,000, raised from the previous $60,000 threshold.
Without
financial aid, annual costs for a typical Stanford student run about
$65,000, including yearly tuition at more than $45,000.
