<p>As for Princeton, I don’t think that its financial aid is less than Harvard/Yale, but it is slightly different. Harvard and Yale are both free for students with family income under $60,000, while Princeton is free for students with family income under $75,000. Princeton then has a sliding scale of aid for families making up to $200,000 (i.e., those making from $60,000-$120,000 pay no tuition, but some percentage of room and board). At Harvard, families with up to $180,000 in income have an expected contribution of up to 10% of their income, while at Yale, it’s somewhat less clear, although families with incomes under $200,000 will receive aid. I don’t think that anyone is clear on how much aid would be given by each school for an individual family, but I don’t think that Princeton is less generous than Harvard/Yale.</p>
