Stanford's Financial Aid

<p>Is Stanford's Financial Aid comparable to that of Harvard's, Yale's, and Princeton's for middle income families? </p>

<p>Thanks for the help.</p>

<p>My S is a freshman at Stanford and received FA. We are middle income (around $100K, with slightly larger than "typical assets" for that income), and I plugged in our financial info into Harvard's calculator just to compare. The results were within a few hundred dollars of what Stanford gave to my S.</p>

<p>Could you please post the link to Harvard's Financial Aid calculator? I can't seem to find it.</p>

<p>Thanks!</p>

<p>Chris: I couldn't find it either! In fact, they specifically say on the website that they are just in the process of making a financial aid calculator. In a Stanford Daily article last year Stanford said that they were making one, too, although it hasn't materialized yet. </p>

<p>I think I must have used Princeton's calculator, since it looks the most familiar. Yale also has one. I guess what I should have said was that Stanford's FA was almost the same as Princeton's. Sorry for the wrong info!</p>

<p>I saw that also on their website but thought that maybe it was somewhere else or that I was just missing it. I'll look at the Princeton or Yale site. Thanks!</p>
