<p>^^^ Reed has never been truly need-blind. Prior to 2003, Reed admitted on a need-blind basis, but didn’t (couldn’t afford to) provide the needed aid to all of those admitted. Starting with the class admitted in 2003, Reed openly became need-aware, but began meeting 100% of need. In 2007 over 100 acceptances were affected by the need-aware policy, in 2008 around 60, this year well over 100 (yield is about 30%).</p>
