<p>Re: “meet full need”</p>
<p>“Meet full need” seems to have varying definitions at different schools. What I saw from net price calculator experiments is that UVA and UNC-CH gave significantly different (non-zero) expected student contributions for the same financial parameters, even though they both “meet full need” (UVA was higher, but a student could still handle it on Stafford loans and a reasonable amount of work earnings, while UNC-CH was low enough that a student could handle it on Stafford loans or a reasonable amount of work earnings).</p>
<p>Even the well-known-to-be-generous-with-financial-aid schools like Harvard and Stanford do have a non-zero expected student contribution, even when the expected family contribution is zero.</p>

<p>University of Minnesota - Morris has no out-of-state surcharge, so 150% of the in-state tuition would make it more expensive (and it is listed under the institutions offering no discount). Neither it nor Truman State have particularly high list prices anyway.</p>
