<p>alemom’s math is probably a decent guess. That said, it would be interesting to know what % of the student pop is paying full boat if you eliminate gov backed student loans. Quite literally…students pay those back so the practical person doesn’t count that as financial help. I’ll bet if you took out loans, and took out those receiving say $2500 or less per year in merit money…that you’d have way over 50% paying full boat. You’re not only in great company, you’re in the majority.</p>
