The 10 best colleges for financial aid

Not sure how Bowdoin College is ranked number (#1) one when the average cost is so much higher than most of the other schools on this list. Also, curious that Colgate made the top 10–#10–since it only awards aid to 36% & many colleges & universities award grant aid to a much higher percentage of students.

This list does not include Harvard, MIT, Wellesley, Amherst & Swarthmore.
