<p>something worth looking at from the Stanford Report:

<p>this beats harvard's "under 40K = free" aid, right?</p>
<p>Oh wow, nice.</p>
<p>i wonder if those numbers are gross income figures or the "adjusted gross income" calculated on federal tax returns. anyone?</p>
<p>oh man now i really hope i'm accepted.</p>
<p>W000t! So, does anyone know if Stanford expects student loans as part of its financial aid packages at that level? We can't tell if under full financial aid, there will be a GSL as part of the package. I ask because son's trying to get scholarships to offset his contribution, and student loans.</p>
<p>The answer to my question, according to this article <a href="http://sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2006/03/16/STANFORD.TMP%5B/url%5D">http://sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2006/03/16/STANFORD.TMP</a> is that yes, the "full aid" includes loans.</p>
