As I wrote on another thread, I find it amazing that schools have taken this approach of giving absolutely no scholarships to students who probably in any other year would have gotten something (even if small). Davidson is not the only school doing this, just another one that has become unaffordable to the middle class. It seems to me that for this year if you didn’t qualify for “the big” scholarship and did not qualify for merit based aid that you received nothing at many schools that in prior years had given aid to top students regardless. Sad.
