<p>I have been hearing reports that Stanford's endowment is 14.8 BILLION!</p>

<p>Is this true! Stanford has already surpassed Princeton in endowments AND IT IS ABOUT TO PASS YALE on the same year!!</p>

<p>WOW, Stanford is bringing in the dough like it's nobody's business.</p>

<p>WOW that is really great!</p>

<p>OMG 14.8 billion?!?!? O_O</p>

<p>Stanford and Palo Alto...now both incredibly rich.</p>

<p>Now if only that translated into more generous financial aid...::sigh::</p>

<p>Wow thats really awesome news! DiamondT, where did you hear those reports about the size of Stanford's endowment?</p>

<p>NVM, I found an article on Google.</p>

<p>stanford's financial aid is generous enough...</p>

<p>Well more money is never a bad thing when it comes to a university's endowment.</p>

<p>yay! go stanford... nice campaign <em>ALMOST</em> as large as browns.</p>

<p>Haha, Brown's 1.4 billion dollar campaign is to improve its small endowment and help it compete with other schools.</p>

<p>In contrast, Stanford's billion dollar campaign was solely to improve undergraduate education above all things. </p>

<p>There's a big difference.</p>

<p>questions:
why not need blind for intl's ?
why no aid to intl transfers?
etc.
