What is the average household income of those sending kids to college?

<p>

</p>

<p>Yeah, that’s strange, especially when it gives the average net price for Denison at $23, 668, yet none of the average net prices by income level is below 30K.</p>

<p>The data for other schools seems more realistic. College of Wooster, for example, has an $8, 805 net price for families in the 0-30K range, and $28, 666 for families above 110K.</p>

<p>Yes, and this is why it kills me every time someone moans on this board that it’s only the ‘very poor’ and the ‘very rich’ can afford college, because the poor get aid and the very rich have enough to cover full COA, leaving those making 120-150K to deal with crushing college costs, too wealthy for aid but too poor to cover full COA.</p>

<p>There is but a handful of schools in which if you make below 50K where the ‘very poor’ might have great financial aid. The rest look very much like Denison. And as for those making 120-150K, these upper middle class kids typically have good GPAs and test scores and qualify for merit money at schools like Denison. Often, the working poor/lower middle class families do not have as high test scores, and therefore are shut out of merit. money.</p>
