I do have a kid at Elon and another college as well. I also am a middle classer. The tuition is 33,750 ( still “serious” money of course) not sure where 37,000 comes from. I can only tell you what Elon tells in their info sessions and such…they give you the cost savings upfront–even their scholarships may be considered on the lower side (between 4-5K from what I’ve heard). You’ve done the federal aid calculations so you know what your getting there. As far as grants I haven’t heard of any–anyone else have? ELon does not have the endowments that other institutions are blessed with. For a private school, with ALL the amenities, I do think its a bargain.
