<p>Sorry, sloppy writing on my part. The Ivies now are pledging to pay up to 100% of a student’s costs if need-based. </p>
<p>From Columbia’s website:</p>
<p>Financial aid awards at Columbia are based on meeting 100% of your demonstrated financial need (except for Transfer and Combined Plan students.) Columbia is committed to meeting 100% of your demonstrated financial need for all four years of undergraduate study.</p>
