<p>I don’t think they really have 100. All those kids have to hit 18-22 at the same time. The U I know best is an elite and there are years when there can be only one or two faculty kids applying. Plus many faculty without kids or with kids past the age range are fussing about this perk. </p>
<p>I think it depends on the size of the school and associated institutions. When I went to Penn, there were four faculty kids from my high school class alone, so I can see 100 faculty kids attending undergrad at one time easily. One student had a father who was a doctor at the hospital - they got the same tuition benefits. Over the last thirty years, the tuition benefits at various universities I know have gotten smaller and qualifications have gotten more stringent, so the waivers must have some discernable effect on revenue.</p>
<p>Some schools give tuition benefits to their school generously, but regulate those available through tuition exchange more strictly - certain number per year, seniority of the faculty member, etc. The Jesuit schools have an exchange, but BC and Georgetown have different rules because so many dependents would apply. Some state schools don’t allow tuition benefits to dependents.</p>
<p>You have to check with your school.</p>
<p>It’s an advantage as mr mom said. I knew of wash u also, and St. Louis University has a similar discount but only at SLU and not as generous as wash u but still a huge advantage. Other schools waive fees, oos tuition if applicable, etc. student in my d’s class accepted ea to wash u and everyone knew it was a no brainer, her dad is a prof. Not to slight her, she is bright, but relatively no ec’s or leadership. There are stipulations the student maintain a certain gpa or it is lost, with no chance for appeal. My son’s friend nearly lost his benefit 1st semester freshman year. Good luck!!</p>
