<p>It seems that every elite private university now has gone the no-loans route; even those which relatively rank lower than JHU (tufts). Will JHU be next?</p>
<p>Why are they taking so long? Do they actually think that paying loans is a good thing? :confused: I sincerely hope that if they want to help out society, like they claim they do, they would think about helping out lower-income families.</p>
<p>wait, what exactly do you mean by this?</p>
<p>Going no loans for most schools is a luxury. For schools that are tuition-dependent, it’s not really an option. Schools would if they could - not sure if JHU is in that position just yet.</p>
<p>orpheus, what i mean by this is that since Harvard’s decision to end loans for low-income students, a lot of private schools have also done the same thing. Yet, i find it kinda weird that JHU has not done it.</p>

<p>This was asked a while back, and I remember AdmissionsDaniel mentioning that, for some time, a revamp of the financial aid criteria at Hopkins was being considered. Even before many schools started hastily announcing broad changes. </p>
<p>I’m sure we’re taking longer to announce any change because we like to do things correctly the first time, depending on what’s best for our school.</p>
