No one has ever had an expected loan contribution of $5,000. Your loan expectation as a low-income student is never more than $3500, which is why Odyssey scholarships are worth $3500. To reiterate the point, it is written on the Scholarship page: “There are two levels of Odyssey Scholarships; one which replaces the student’s need to borrow and one which reduces their loan obligation by half.” This policy has not changed.

So Odyssey scholarships are increasing substantially, and will give an extra $1750 worth of financial aid to students whose families make between $60k-90k. Financial aid is finally expanding into the upper middle class, an extremely positive development for the College.
