<p>Wow. Berkeley is committing an additional $12M per year to help out students from families with incomes below $140,000. Similar to Harvard's cap based on % of income, Berkeley will cap contributions to 15% of income for those families. Great to see a state school step up like this, although almost equally shocking that it comes from a UC institution, given the state's "challenges" with funding.</p>
