Pricing Differences Among Private Colleges: The Impact of Discounting Through College-Funded Grants.

Basch, Donald L.

Journal of Student Financial Aid, v26 n3 p41-58 Fall 1996

Ironically, one reason many of these colleges can sustain such policies is that stringent selectivity and high price may lower the percentage of needy students. (Author/MSE)
