Giving good financial aid does NOT always mean shelling out the bucks. It also means the school aids the student in finding funding sources as well.
The top ten schools praised by their students for great financial aid departments:
10. Wabash College www.wabash.edu
9. Williams College www.willams.edu
8. Beloit College www.beloit.edu
7. Claremont McKenna College www.mckenna.edu
6. Lake Forest College www.lakeforest.edu
5. Truman State College www.truman.edu
4. Stanford University www.stanford.edu
3. New College of Florida www.ncf.edu
2. Pomona College www.pomona.edu
1. Princeton University www.princeton.edu
With annual costs of $45.4K for tuition, room & board and books and supplies, Princeton Students need financial aid help. The school also has work-study programs, institutional employment and says off-campus opportunities are good.
In other words, if you can get in the school, they can help you build up your college debt long enough to keep you till you get out.
The www.PrincetonReview.com rankings are a source of much debate, maybe even a few fist fights when the schools are neighbors. The book ranks schools in some 60+ different categories. The results are based on surveys given to those who should know best - the students who attend. And PR asked more than 115,000 such students.
